My question is why is the BG's accomplice not being charged with "Felony Murder"? Does WV not have a "felony murder" statute, or is the Ohio County DA just to lazy to make the case?
It is our cause to dispel the foggy thinking which avoids hard decisions in the delusion that a world of conflict will somehow mysteriously resolve itself into a world of harmony, if we just don't rock the boat or irritate the forces of aggression—and this is hogwash."

Glad to see they didn't identify the 'pharmacy employee'. Hope that person is held harmless by their employer and the law and not identified. My empathy goes out to them for having to live with taking a life, though they may not have had a choice. I don't believe the article stated the BG had a weapon. Evidently, the accomplice blabbed when they apprehended her giving them cause to charge her.

Where is the article quoting the police chief thanking the pharmacy employee for stopping a robbery and possibly saving lives?
I'm sure it'll be forthcoming.![]()
