“It was straight up murder, I don’t know how you think it’s not.”

WRONG!
Murder is premeditated,this wasn’t.
.
Pretty certain pre-meditation does not require days hours minutes or even seconds- but it could be at the moment of decision.
Did Noor plan to use lethal force on Damond at any time prior to choosing to point, shoot and employ lethal force against her? Yep. Has to be so, the use of LF is a conscious decision that requires planning and action IOT implement. Now, will a jury agree that in the moments leading up to the shooting, that Noor had intended to shoot anyone? That’s why the jury must be unanimous....
No it isn’t.
Murder is any killing where there is malicious intent to do so.
He pulled out his gun and shot across his partner into a woman wearing pajamas.
He had malicious intent.
I hope he gets charged with Murder 1, and is executed. Barring that I hope he has an “accident.”
