I thought the same looked some stuff up.I wonder why 2nd degree murder, how could they already assess harm or death was intentional but not premeditated ?
Maybe it was more a crime of passion or opportunity for the perp as opposed to one where he had planned out her death, days in advance? In other words, he didn't go to sleep that night planning on killing her the next day. Events ended up occurring that caused him to kill her. The idea behind the distinction between 1st and 2nd degree murder is that, while the killing was still intentional and wrong, it may not have been the result of a deliberate, calculated decision to take another person's life. Instead, it may have been a spontaneous or impulsive act, driven by strong emotions or unexpected circumstances.
There are still so many missing details, but the charge of 2nd degree is a bit of a clue of the general nature of the crime.
