Gotta disagree. Conspirators to murder are also guilty of murder.

Additionally, Clinton was grossly, criminally negligent after repeated requests for additional security so that her lack of action rises to criminal negligent homicide. I think that’s a 2nd degree murder or manslaughter charge. (I’m no lawyer, but I think I remember such a discussion during the George Zimmerman trial this summer. Zim’s supposed “negligence” rated a murder/manslaughter charge according to many of his detractors.)

Please. All the idiocy spouted during the Zimmerman circus had only an occasional bit of truth in it. The detractors and supporters of Zimmerman had all the legal knowledge of the late Morton Downey Jr.’s studio audience.

Conspiracy? I would love to believe it, but there’s no proof that she wanted them dead, or sicked the mob on them. There was a cover up, but for political reasons.

Unfortunately, I don’t know what the federal statute says constitutes criminally negligent homicide. But I recall the NY penal code says that criminal negligent homicide is when a person substantially deviates from the behavior of a reasonable person and thereby increases the risk that their behavior will cause the death of another, and thereby causes the death of another. Criminally reckless homicide is when a person substantially deviates from the behavior of a reasonable person and knows that thereby he is increasing the risk that their behavior will cause the death of another person, and it causes the death of another person. Let’s just say the federal statute says something or other like that.

Her behavior, however, did not cause the death of the four Americans. The angry mob did that. Had there been no angry mob of terrorists, having insufficient security would not have caused anyone’s death.

It might have been what’s called “depraved indifference” homicide, because she knew there was an angry mob out there howling for blood, but did not care if they killed Ambassador Stevens and the three servicemen, thereby showing a depraved indifference for their lives. But even though I’m not a lawyer, just a fortunately-no-longer-active paralegal with a couple decades’ experience, I doubt that charge would fly.

I doubt she’s even the real culprit. More likely, it was Obama his very own treasonous Kenyan self who ordered everyone to do nothing (something he’s very good at) and simply vote ‘present’.
