There's something so evil about what she did, but have in our society a large segment of the population with a total disregard for life.
I am glad I didn't ever watch any of the proceedings or see the pictures, it is too heartbreaking.
So what is the legal definition of murder?

Yes, and?
Be sure to ask him specifically about Texas law. We have at least 50 different definitions and gradations of murder in the U.S.
I think we all agree that it was an accident and not her fault that she hit the guy.
If not, it was vehicular manslaughter. I think she should have been tried for that, and then tried for the acts that followed, separately.
What purpose would that have served? Nobody would gain from that except the lawyers and the court stenographer. The great state of Texas would have been spending a lot of extra dollars for a second trial to proove what? That she did infact let the man die.

Mr. Biggs wanted the same thing also
I didn't pay close attention to it, so you might be right.
Then throw her in the garage and wait it out.
