One of the articles I read said the one who was caught would be charged with murder.Tragic.
However, shouldn't the criminals whom robbed the young man be charged with murder?

What if you got a little hot headed and punched a guy for insulting your daughter and your wife (not at a criminal level). He pulls out gun to shoot you but misses and kills your daughter. Should you be charged murder? I don't think so.Tragic.

I'm in agreement with you. People tend to look at instances like this with young gang bangers and not really care about the implication of the felony murder rule because: "meh -- they deserved it."What if you got a little hot headed and punched a guy for insulting your daughter and your wife (not at a criminal level). He pulls out gun to shoot you but misses and kills your daughter. Should you be charged murder? I don't think so.
Edit: Let's say IP 18 passes and somebody steals one of your evil firearms that you "forgot" to register and kills somebody with it. Is the felony you committed (by possessing an unregistered firearm" a reason to be charged with murder. I don't think so. There are a million examples where if we continue going down this road, a lot of people will be unjustly charged with murders they didn't commit.
Is punching someone, or attempting to punch someone a fellony?

I'm sure this kid will do way better after he's learned all the tools of the criminal trade from his new inmate palsA 13yo in the arms manufacturing and marketing business -- this wasn't some hobby. What's a shame is that he clearly had the drive and the skills to succeed as some sort of entrepreneur, he just needed enough guidance to avoid being a black market entrepreneur.
He's a gangster, an illegal gunrunner and now a murderer as well.he's a child.
to build on your point, for the sake of others: most people have no idea how massive of a disadvantage convicts face. you get out of jail and have absolutely nothing: if you had a job, its long gone. if you had a home, its long gone. if you had a car, you dont anymore. you cant get a job better than minimum wage, cant rent the vast majority of apartments, you are absolutely penniless. and you cant even get food stamps, cant get welfare, typically cant even leave the state youre in if you have any kind of post release supervision.
That's not the same as being an accomplice.What if you got a little hot headed and punched a guy for insulting your daughter and your wife (not at a criminal level). He pulls out gun to shoot you but misses and kills your daughter. Should you be charged murder? I don't think so.
your privilege is showing.
The moral of the story is don't commit crimes.
he doesnt even have hair on his balls.He's a gangster, an illegal gunrunner and now a murderer as well.
Don't give me that crap. I and other members of my family have been the victims of criminal activity on several occasions. Got no sympathy.your privilege is showing.
And how would you know this?he doesnt even have hair on his balls.
As someone who works daily with kids and communicates with their parents. I will say you are putting A LOT of faith in some people's parents.I get all that, but I find it hard to believe that a 13 year old sauntered into the local gun store and walked out with gun parts. I also find it hard to believe a 13 year old was ordering and paying for parts to be shipped to his home. It may just be that I'm old and out of touch, but it would seem to me that, at the very least, his parents would have noticed something amiss.
Anyone involved in a felony where a homicide occurs can be charged and convicted with that homicide.A 14-year-old girl was shot and killed by her brother, who was making and selling guns, Georgia sheriff says | CNN
A 13-year-old boy who was manufacturing and selling so-called "ghost guns" has been arrested after he allegedly shot and killed his 14-year-old sister with one of his own homemade firearms, according to the Douglas County, Georgia, Sheriff's Office.www.cnn.com
I don't think the perp that stole the gun should be charged with murder.
You're kidding me, right? Me? Work???
