Re: Oklahoma Pharmacist gets Life

I'd give him a decent prison sentence, but life is ridiculous. We throw years around like they are nothing in this country. It's a heavy thing to take most (or all) of a man's life away from them, and I really am not sure enough judges see it that way. Very rarely do I think anyone should go to jail for 20+ years.

But that's also presupposing we'd work on rehabilitating people in prison and making it so they could do something with themselves on the outside, along with dealing with whatever issues caused them to end up in prison, but lol that's never going to happen.

He is talking about Felony Murder but, depending on the State, it usually does not apply in these instances. The person that got killed was a co-conspirator, thus Felony Murder does not apply. It usually only applies to innocent victim during commission of crime. Again, this depends on state law

That rule was used a few years ago near my home. A disgruntled employee of a car garage burned the shop down. The structure collapsed on a firefighter and killed him. The guy was convicted of murder with the felony murder rule.
