The prosecution does not want just a murder charge, because they then have to prove he murdered her and maybe intent. With the kidnapping/murder charge all they have to prove is that she was with him that weekend (kidnapping) and then since she is dead it is assumed murder. They do not have to prove he murdered in the 2nd case.

Do you think they should have the other type charge allowed?
