Because it is a 'cause and affect thing.'I’m sorry, I need clarification on that. If he kidnapped her, how can he be charged with murdering her?
If two burglars go into a house, and the homeowner wakes up and shoots/kills one of them, guess who will be charged with murder?
The surviving burglar can be charged with murder, because during the felony, their partner died. They can hold the survivor responsible.
IF RA was bridge guy, and he forced the girls off the bridge, down the hill, and handed them off to Odinists, or KAK, or anyone else, who then killed the girls----RA would still be charged with their murder.
Reason being, he was in the process of a felony which resulted in someone's death.
The rule of felony murder is a legal doctrine in some common law jurisdictions that broadens the crime of murder: when someone is killed (regardless of intent to kill) in the commission of a dangerous or enumerated crime (called a felony in some jurisdictions), the offender, and also the offender's accomplices or co-conspirators, may be found guilty of murder.[1]
