wow....i thought here was bad enough with the lenient penalties for murder....or how they justify non/culpable  homicide..

these guys are not charged with second or first degree murder.....

 

quote " The arrested pair were charged with use of a weapon without permission, which carries a six month to three year jail term, and with theft with aggravating circumstances, in which the penalty is up to 10 years".
