So says the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

PHOENIX (AP) — A federal appeals court has upheld a man’s second-degree murder conviction but threw out another conviction based on the first while ruling that the murder isn’t always a crime of violence under federal law.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals panel’s 2-1 ruling Monday said Randly Begay couldn’t be convicted of discharging a firearm during a crime of violence because second-degree murder can be committed recklessly and therefore isn’t legally considered a “crime of violence.”

Begay was convicted of second-degree murder in a 2013 killing in Tuba City, Arizona, on the Navajo Nation’s reservation.

Roderick Ben was shot in the head as he, Begay and two other people sat in a van outside a home.

Begay had been complaining about claims his girlfriend was cheating on him with Ben.

The case seems to rely on the definition of "crime of violence" - which I'm guessng is something like "willful intent to cause bodily injury" and second degree murder can fail the "willful" test.

He doesn't care about the case, he just wants to shit on the 9th circuit because he was told it's bad by Fox, Rush and/or the GOP.  Or all of them.

first thought too

The definition of second degree murder includes reckless acts

The definition of violence is an action with an intent to hurt damage or kill.

 

Thus, the court is technically correct, and OP is still an absolute idiot.

I was verdicts like this that eventually led to violent acts of a lethal nature being reclassified as a ‘murder death kill’

it’s all proof we are living in Simon’s simulation.

Can you point to why you think the majority got it wrong? I mean legally, not just because you feel it to be wrong.

Bonus points if the explanation doesn't contain the words Obama, Hillary, antifa, etc... We're all on edge as we await the legal analysis from one of the preeminent legal scholars of our time. Don't let us down.

Extra points if you work in circumstantial evidence.

Circumstantial evidence suggests that Leonid and Friends will be playing in Dallas on November 1.  I might buy tickets.

That would certainly be much more entertaining than this thread.  Or at least, more intentionally entertaining.

My question too.  What point is OP trying to make here?

That liberals, and judges that rule against his political views are bad, and we should all be right wing conservatives and have courts filled with Clarence Thomas clones.

To distract, deflect, discredit, and deceive.

The federal definition of "crime of violence," and there are different ones for different purposes, is a byzantine, non-sensical giant fucking mess.

Like a lot of federal criminal law.

My second question.  How has EMAW not been sourced yet?  He's a Kansas fan on a Longhorn board who constantly shit posts.  He should be gone.

serious question...how hard is it to go through life this fucking stupid?

does EMAW find it intellectually challenging to pump his own gas?

i’m genuinely curious...

He probably lives in NJ so he doesn't have to deal with that drama.

Pssst . . . EMAW . . . just look at your gas gauge and the little arrow will tell you which side your gas tank is on:

Maybe EMAW should just stop posting ever.  

EMAW should only post about things he comprehends. 

Should keep him very quiet, which will be a blessing to all of mankind.
