The Texas law says that you can be charged with Murder if you are fleeing from a felony and cause another person's death by an act clearly dangerous during the commission or flight from the felony. The problem is that they were not committing a felony. There is Manslaughter and Criminal Negligent Homicide to recklessly or negligently cause a person's death but I have never seen that used unless the person actually caused the death, not merely created the situation. Those two guys didn't do anything personally that killed her death. Of course a DA can do what he wants within the law and if he gets a conviction we might get a new case law. Anytime a prosecutor pushes the envelope on meaning of a law, we have a chance of an appeals court setting a precedent on what the law means or how it is to be applied. I call it stretching the legal rubber band. A case law might have already been set in situation like this but if so, I am unaware of it. From my past experience in Jefferson County the former DAs have not been big on pushing laws to the limit.

Awwwww.... Come On!! Let's Do It!! If Nederland would have blah blah blah......

For one thing there was no robbery. That was only a theft and a misdemeanor equal to a traffic citation. He would likely be cleared for shooting the men however because Texas law says defense can be based on a reasonable belief, even if that believe later turned out not to be true. It has to be reasonable at the time you did it. It is like a person pulling a fake gun on an officer being shot and killed. The officer doesn't have to call timeout and inspect the weapon before he can open fire. That goes to the reasonable belief. In fact the officer in Port Arthur that was clear the same day, the man that was shot and killed had a gun that had malfunctioned and could not fire. There is no evidence whatsoever that I have seen it says she was involved in anything. She was in the passenger seat and not the driver. If you drive me to central mall tomorrow and while in there I get arrested for shoplifting, do you get arrested because you drove me there? The obvious answer should be no. Merely being with or near someone committing a crime does not mean you commit the crime. You have to take some active part. What active part did she take in the misdemeanor beer theft that resulted in her death?
