“”””“Three years after the shooting, a woman identified as the girlfriend of Michael Stratton contacted” prosecutors, “stating she believed her boyfriend was the man responsible for killing DeLisa.”””””

I think a lot of people would be surprised to learn how casual some killers are about discussing their murders.

There are countless friends, and casual friends and family members all over the nation who know things that they keep to themselves, it isn’t like the movies at all.

The article really strains to make comparisons to “Strangers on a Train”. Farley Grainger didn’t really agree to the murder, he laughed it off, but Bruno took him literally. Also, there was supposed to be an exchange of murders, and Scott was happy just to get a thrill and score with the chick, from the sounds of it.

Completely different stories.

She’s definitely in the “Danger Zone” on the Hot/Crazy Matrix.

I never saw Strangers On a Train but have heard references to it about 3 times on detective procedural shows.

“The story concerns two strangers who meet on a train, one of whom is a psychopath who suggests that they “exchange” murders so that neither will be caught.”

A little similar in a vague way. Maybe.

This should be first degree

Premeditated and intentional, plus conspiracy

Frigging prosecutors go soft on women.

More info and the other killer’s mugshot here:

https://lawandcrime.com/crime/woman-returning-from-job-interview-killed-boyfriend-after-he-expressed-skepticism-about-her-chances-of-getting-the-job/

Why was she only charged with second degree murder and robbery? It sounds more like first degree.

And why was he declared unfit to stand trial for two murders?

Nothing in this case makes sense.
