Re: Small firearm penalties
I'm not sure what you mean. If you intentionally shoot someone and they survive, you will likely be charged with attempted murder. If they die you have a substantial chance of being charged with murder.

Yes, you are right the man who shot the teenager was "charged" with "attempted murder" and "procession of a firearm." After the jury came back with the verdict they decreased "attempted murder" to "felonious assault with a firearm." They stuck with "procession of a firearm." The suspect will now get less years in jail.
