http://www.okcca.net/online/oujis/oujisrvr.jsp? oc=OUJI-CR% 202-6They just said on the local news Thomas told LE Chadd Raymond strangled Annie Jo in the apartment. Guess there will be no OD cover story or the like. Sounds like she confessed to it all, but if he strangled her until she died...where does the 1st Degree Murder charge come from she faces? Because she helped to plan it and lured her there?
It won't be long before you come home, Annie Jo. It is time. Justice is going to be swift and sure. Thank goodness someone grew a conscience and gave up those horrific secrets.
According to the information found from the above linked website, in Oklahoma, "One who does not actively commit the offense, but who aids, promotes, or encourages the commission of a crime by another person, either by act or counsel or both, is deemed to be a principal to the crime if he/she knowingly did what he/she did either with criminal intent or with knowledge of the other person's intent. To aid or abet another in the commission of a crime implies a consciousness of guilt in instigating, encouraging, promoting, or aiding in the commission of that criminal offense."
The first degree murder charge may be because CT admitted to prior knowledge of and support of the plan to murder Annie, and/or LE has other evidence that shows CT was in agreement with the plan. IMO, JMO
