that's all well and good, but what was she actually charged with?
Implies two counts of first degree murder, but doesn't say that,
and it is entirely unclear to me how either of those murders would be 1st degree even for bob cox.

1.Where did you get that information?
2. It was two counts of murder yes.
"first degree murder", does that mean that you planned it beforehand?
@Nadar: They did release the swede they held on Guantanamo, so I don't think nationality has anything to do with it, just lust for vengeance

Godwin's Law thus practically guarantees the existence of an upper bound on thread length in those groups. However there is also a widely- recognized codicil that any intentional triggering of Godwin's Law in order to invoke its thread-ending effects will be unsuccessful.
