[edit] Murder

In the first paragraph, I read that Neal was a convicted murderer. Later, I read that he was convicted of involuntary manslaughter. Since involuntary manslaughter isn't murder, I rewrote the first paragraph accordingly. I've also removed the "murderer" category.

I realize that this took place in the US, and that US law has recently seemed to allow the most remarkable phenomena (cf Guantanamo Bay). Has involuntary manslaughter been retroactively reclassified as murder? -- Hoary 05:04, 2005 Jun 5 (UTC)
