I just looked, seems highest charge is murder 2 now. I wasn’t aware that they backed off murder 1. And that is weird how they have multiple murder charges against him with one victim. I am lost. 🤣
so they charge a person but offer alternative options if your a jury member. So if you don't think hes guilty of Murder 1 but think he is Guilty of manslaughter, you can still find him guilty of manslaughter. Murder 1 is planned killing while manslaughter is accidental. If I remember right.
That’s where I was lost. I wasn’t aware that they could list any number of possible charges for a singular crime. Seems like a ‘fishing expedition’ to me.

"throw it all out there, see what sticks!"
I think it makes sense when we have laws that rely on particular circumstances and intentions beyond what events transpired.
