One of the most famous examples involved a man convicted of murder for loaning his car to friends who went on to murder an 18-year-old girl. According to prosecutors, it didn't matter that he was 30 minutes away. ...what the flying fuck. Since they deigned not to give any info about the case other than the sentencing I'm gonna guess there was some provable intent previous to the car being lent. The way they gloss over the reason he's being charged (the shootout, breaking and entering, burglary, assault with a deadly weapon) lends them little credence to their factual acumen. This kind of law exists in many states. I remember the last time I heard about it cops shot a guy outside a club and a bystander got tagged and they dropped that right on his charges. I believe this is the case they're referencing: https://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/04/us/04felony.html I don't think that's the same case. In that link, it says the car loaner was a mile and half away. In the referenced story, it says 30 minutes away. Unless there was some serious traffic, I doubt it's the same story. --- https://i.imgur.com/PHWbltB.gifv <cite>Twin3Turbo posted [p:899332752] in In the USA...
