“The second brother did not act against the police and he, by all accounts, remained in the car until his bother fired the shots.

The first brother killed himself as the police closed in on him the next day.”

Sounds like the second brother fled the scene. He probably wouldn’t have been charged if he had stayed with the cops and tried to give them first aid, call for help on their radio, etc.

“said State Senator Nancy Skinner, who introduced the legislation in part because, she said, felony murder cases disproportionately affect women and young black and Latino men.”

“Disproportionately affect” — are those two words used to hedge the fact that women beat the charge by claiming they were forced to go along with a murderous gang? (In some cases, it might even be true).

Are black and Latino men “disproportionately affected” because they disproportionately commit, aid and abet murder?

"A legal doctrine known as the felony murder rule, which holds that anyone involved in certain kinds of serious felonies that result in death is as liable as the actual killer.

As it should be..!

Another member of this “wolf pack,”—San Diego newspaper article’s words from Oct 2007—not mine—was up for murder for another killing shortly after they drove away in a stolen Honda. His attorney asked the jury that he not be convicted of that crime...even tho pack leader Rivera...then 16...took out a .380 and shot fellow “wolf packer” Pena 3x in head and twice in neck. (Both had punched, beat, and kicked 77-yo Hubert Love to death, but apparently Rivera didn’t like how “loud...(and) sloppy” Pena was during the attack.) ‘Twas Pena’s idea to target Love (he mowed Love’s yard)

Notice the incomplete news...no mention in article of a double murder that night...or how the homeowner became “badly hurt”...nor was he simply “badly” hurt..
he was beaten and kicked to death very loudly...

How sad. This teen will be going to jail for merely being an accomplice to murder and before he had a chance to commit an outright murder himself. Sniff...

This is raw leftist Ahole analysis.
Being a lookout is part of the conspiracy. You are guilty. Violence was part and parcel and the knew it.
He offered no aid and ran. A conspiritor.
Stop the bleeding hearts.

One of the ways tha5 this law has been used is when a police officer accidentally kills an innocent person in an attempt to stop a crime in progress. This can either be via accident in attempting to get to the scene, a pursuit leading to a crash or with gunfire.

In these cases, if not for the criminal act, the victim would not be dead. That makes sense to me and all involved should be held accountable for the death.

Were not committing a felony? Shooting people is not a felony? Am I missing something? Are you?

I don’t think you have any idea that this is already happening , court mandated because of prison overcrowding. The liberals refuse to fund what is required because they know most of the lawbreakers are of a pigmented persuasion.

IF they acted more live AMERICANS & less like AFRICANS, perhaps they wouldn’t be in trouble all the time.

Show me who your friends are, and I’ll show you who you are, Shawn.

” who introduced the legislation in part because, she said, felony murder cases disproportionately affect women and young black and Latino men.”

Maybe because they are disproportionately violent criminals.

There are cases too where someone in the hood asks for a ride to the liquor store, then that persons gets out, robs the store, shoots the clerk and the “driver” goes down for murder 1... not sure that is fair...although they all say they didn’t know he was going to rob the store...
