Teen turns down 25-year prison offer, instead gets 65 years

Or the robbers could, you know, be charged with robbery.

Except that charge doesn't really account for or specify the psychological trauma inflicted on the people who kill one of the robbers in the course of action.

Causing "psychological trauma", whatever that is, isn't a crime.

This is where you're absolutely wrong and I left out a part anyway. A killing occurred because of the actions of people who decided to invade homes. Once you invade homes in certain states you have essentially forfeit your life and that of your companions if the homeowner feels compelled to defend themselves. Couple this with being armed and people will assume you were going to use force against other human beings you encountered in the domicile. Thus the killing of anyone during the process of these robberies should absolutely be placed on the robbers in the minds of people who made these laws.

Cite the law that shows causing psychological trauma is a crime.

Felony Murder
The felony murder rule is a rule that allows a defendant to be charged with first-degree murder for a killing that occurs during a dangerous felony, even if the defendant is not the killer. The felony murder rule applies only to those crimes that are considered “inherently dangerous,” as the rationale underlying the felony murder rule is that certain crimes are so dangerous that society wants to deter individuals from engaging in them altogether. Thus, when a person participates in an inherently dangerous crime, he or she may be held responsible for the fatal consequences of that crime, even if someone else caused the actual death.

The felony murder rule is an exception to the normal rules of homicide. Normally, a defendant can be convicted of murder only if a prosecutor shows that the defendant acted with the intent to kill or with a reckless indifference to human life. Under the felony murder rule, however, a defendant can be convicted of murder even if the defendant did not act with intent or a reckless indifference; the prosecution must show only that the defendant participated in a felony where fatalities occurred.

[Mastamimd]

At first I was like eh but dude did that shyt. I'm all for defending our people, and 65 is a little steep, but the nikka might not have any remorse for the crimes he did.

Should have taken the plea.

 

[Mr.Big Meat McGee]

65 years? He might as well commit that cause his life is basically over.

 

[zayk35]

Call me a copy or whatever..but if he wasn't out robbing and shooting at cops he wouldn't be in this mess no matter how harsh we find the punishment...stay out of situations that put you at the mercy of the corrupt sytstem
