Third degree murder?! How can this not be considered a premeditated and intentional crime? He terrorized her by continuing to show up at her house after the work he’d been hired to do was complete, then kidnapped and murdered her for a trifling sum of money? I’m awed by the family’s ability to make peace with this (IMO pretty light) sentence—I can’t help but think they were trying to act with the grace and equanimity characteristic of their late mother/grandmother.
