Are you pro or con on the murder charge? FWIW, I don’t see her any more
responsible than gun manufacturers are for gun deaths. I can see her being
charged with abetting, though. She did facilitate but, he took the drugs.
She didn’t force them into him. A typical case of no personal
responsibility for anything these days.

By the way, is this all you have? It’s a pretty short C&P from the king of
C&P.
