(8,303 posts)I think if these had been older, more experienced thieves they would have gotten out, but they were just too young to realize they should get out faster than they got in.
The oldest of the robbers was an adult woman who was driving, and since has turned herself in. She seems like the organizer, and since she is facing three felony murder charges, she has an incentive to talk. So I assume if this was some drug-related thing, it will come out.
Even if it is drug-related, a forcible home invasion by three masked/gloved intruders who don't turn and run when they hear something like "I have a gun" is most definitely justifiable homicide.
Horrible story, and very shocking. I found myself most shocked by the idea that the woman drove those three kids out there and told them to go in, and then fled when she heard shots. I have sometimes wondered about the justice of felony murder charges, but this case defines the reason why those charges exist. I would have no problem convicting providing the evidence holds up.
