    The reason they included the spurious terrorism charge is that’s what takes it to murder 1 and the death penalty…

    I’m sorry, I assumed everyone was up to speed, I shouldn’t have.

      That’s the state charge, and the state does not have the death penalty. The federal charge of murder with a firearm carries the potential for the death penalty.
