It does not meet the legal definition of murder. She was overcharged.

It met the legal definition of murder in Texas and that's where she did the crime.

Apparently in Texas it did...and rightly so.

It does not meet the legal definition of murder. She was overcharged. Ummm...I think Texas prosecutors and a Texas judge understand Texas murder laws and precedents a little bit better than you.

It does not meet the legal definition of murder. She was overcharged. Tell that to Mr. Biggs family.

Do you think the DA can charge felony murder if it doesn't meet the definition?!Intent is not a requirement. Death that occurs as the result of a felony is called felony murder.The felony was failure to stop and render aid.I believe kidnapping was involved because she closed him into her garage where there was no escape.She not only failed to render aid as in a hit and run,she made it impossible for him to get aid.The Supreme court approves if you don't.

The State of Texas disagrees with you.
Don't Mess With Texas.

It does not meet the legal definition of murder. She was overcharged. Actually in Texas we have a provision for a compound felony.
She committed one by the hit and run and then compounded it with her letting the man die.
That is why she was charged with first degree murder and not second.
