She got off light - but did not commit murder
What part are you not understanding?
Whatcha want?
We should all line up and sing Kumbya?
1. In Texas 2nd degree murder does not require prior intent to kill. It only requires death to have been caused by an act which itself is wrongful. So if you think drawing a gun is wrongful when retreating would diffuse the situation, then shooting and killing someone with that drawn gun is murder.
2. Federal sentencing guidelines say manslaughter warrants 10-16 months, not 15 years.
1. 1st degree is prior intent. 2nd degree is spur of the momentb with intent.
2. Nice try. Max sentance for manslaughter in Texas (this is not federal) is 20 years.
