Thats not murder... thats vehicular homicide.

Yea, the kid was wrong for stop light racing, yea he killed the girl. But its not murder, its vehiclar homicide. The fact he was racing had nothing to do with it.

As a matter of fact, if someone robs a bank, which is a felony of course, and while running from the police in a high speed chase kills someone. They STILL dont get murder charges. They get vehicular homicide. Same thing for DUI!

There is a REASON for the law and particular charges. It is just stupid to try give the kid one charge when a SPECIFIC charge for what he did exists. The REASON they made the charge of vehicular homicide is because it was decided that when something like this happens, it is NOT murder.

The fact he was racing is irrelevant. Give the kid a street racing charge if you want. But at least charge him for the right thing.

btw, these guys do deserve 2 separate cases, I dont think they should have to be co-defendants.
