Kevin Gough, an attorney for Bryan, said earlier this week that Bryan had taken a polygraph test that confirmed he was not involved in the shooting. Maybe this has been addressed, but it happens fairly frequently. I want to note, this is a simplification. Statutes vary by locality and language. They are for lawyers to parse, so I a painting very broadly with the example. If you and your bro rob a bank. You drive the getaway car. Your bro pops the teller. You drive your buddy out of the place. You can get charged with the murder. See this Basically, you knew your actions to rob the bank could reasonably lead to a murder. You assisted in the operation, or aided, or abetted the commission of the murder. Thus, you helped kill somebody and therefore get charged for the murder. https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/felony_murder_doctrine --- You know how fads are.
