You’re right - apology to pulicords.
Trying to sort 4 replies in one post made it look like there was a contradiction that didn’t make sense.
Thanks for pointing it out, post deleted.

Which Alphabet-agency do you expect will appear?

None. What a silly question.

When I was a cop we found many of these “home invasion” things were really an attempted rip off of fellow drug dealers or what not...
Most of the burglary guys I chased after tried to avoid people who were at home (high chance of getting shot)
We had one guy who got killed when he won the lottery and his “friends” tried to rip him off...wound up putting a bullet in his head and they didn’t get any money...

snorisI also got on GoogleMaps Street View to look at the neighborhood where the offense took place. As soon as I hit “Enter,” the song “Dueling Banjos” started playing.
I can’t imagine being the mail carrier on that route.

MicropterusI looked up Palmer Drive, Lacombe, St. Tammany Parish, LA on Google Maps. There is only 2 homes on that long dead end road, both very nice. Looks like a really nice area.

No problem. If I didn't make it clear to others: Anyone participating the a serious felony crime should be held responsible for the subsequent deaths of either innocent victims or others that participated in the crime, even IF they only drove the getaway vehicle. FWIW.

When a crime is committed in hell, don't expect to find angels as witnesses (or victims).

Isn't that usually called something like "felony manslaughter"?

That is the "felony murder" doctrine.

rburgAlso keep in mind the wild card in the whole deal, the Jury. You know, 12 of your fellow citizens. Not just idlers and fools that somehow drew inside seats. All it takes is one or two with a good dose of common sense to upset the apple cart. They just won't convict if the defendant seems like a good guy but wasn't doing anything much wrong. And all he did to draw attention and the charge was a stick of weed in his pocket. Sure, its was a felony (in some places), but didn't really contribute much to the crime.

In my neck of the woods those sons of bitches better take the plea deal. Cause I’d be the farm a jury in this county gives the DA everything he ask for.
