Raven did it. He doesn't live in NC, so it's not a high priority imo.
Politics is a major problem in Durham, and I believe the District Attorney, the Governor of North Carolina, LE and those involved should be carrying a heavy burden on their shoulders and in their conscience for their actions and inactions.
As far as 2nd degree, I say NO way. I would rather they wait and get him fully on everything.
I believe he deserves the death penalty, but Life Without Parol will suit me just fine. He killed two people, the baby Janet was carrying and Janet. He tried to destroy many lives, The Christiansens all Janet's friends and family, he has hurt Kaiden and is hurting his OWN family and friends, because those that trust him and believe in him now, will be extremely burdened and hurt when the truth comes out.
He's a freeloader, a sociopath, a CHRONIC liar, a thief, yet he's charming, he's pursuasive, narcissistic, and he's a murderer. I believe that he is a danger to society, his child, and believe that he can and believe fully that he may kill again.
He belongs off the streets forever. 2nd degree, not good enough for him.
