Test Case in Murder Charge Here
Deputy District Attorney Rennie Ashieman argued there are no Nevada cases charging an accessory with murder when the accomplice is slain during the crime. He cited California cases upholding the theory that an accomplice can be liable for murder if death was foreseeable, such as in burglary. LaMont died after being shot by Hardesty in a hallway. Young suffered a head wound from a shotgun blast as the suspect fled. Young received treatment at Southern Nevada Memorial Hospital and is jailed locally.
