In this local TV Station, WKYC-3, news story, they write that, "She was found guilty of all charges against her, including four counts of murder, four counts of felonious assault and two counts of aggravated vehicular assault."
I'm from Florida, where if a person murders 2 people, they can only be found guilty of 2 counts of murder. If the lesser charges of murder contain the same elements as a higher more serious charge that the crime also meets the requirements of, they can only be found guilty of the more serious crime, not both.
Is there anyone who can explain how when 2 people died, she has 4 charges of murder? I know different states have different laws and hoped someone here was familiar with Ohio law.
Thank you.
