In NY City a group of 5 is being held, because 1 of them shot and killed

lookouts and/or otherwise accomplices. They are all facing charges of
murder of some kind now, although only 1 of them did the deed. He was
arrested and let go in spite of a NC/SC arrest warrant, but the down
south authorities didn't want to come and get him. Apparently that was
enough reason to let him free, damn the judge involved. Oh, yes, the gun
used was an illegal weapon.

I'm in the choir, and well aware of, and completely fine with, the
justification for felony murder charges in the above scenario, but you
do see the stark difference?

You really have to stretch logic, common sense and reality to invoke
felony murder charges in the case I remarked upon.

Again, Asshat lawyers playing games with the legal system by shading
what should be the even hand of justice.
