I think the first degree murder charge is a little over the top (I know the whole "while committing another felony" wording of the law), but I think if you look at this logically this shouldn't be a first degree murder case. Did the guy kill the kid and possible because he was smoing pot? Yes, but he didn't premeditate the killing. This was a horrible accident. He needs to pay for what he has done, but to put what he did on the same level as the BTK and Carr brother murders is stupid.
