    He wasn’t charged correctly.

    Had he been charged with 2nd degree murder he would have been convicted.

      The jury was given instructions that they could also convict him of second degree murder.

      (Edit) I take this back, I searched my source and I confused the prosecution requesting it, but it was denied by the judge.

        I watched every moment of the trial including the jury instructions. You are spreading false information. Please check your sources.

          You’re right, I searched my source and found that they requested it, but the judge denied it. I’ll edit my post.

          It’s pretty standard for juries to be instructed that they can find someone guilty of a lesser charge. Not sure when this became common practice.
