Part 1: Howard returned home from a business trip and discovered his wife Susan asleep in bed with Larry his business partner.  Howard went into a rage, grabbed a knife, and stabbed Larry, who died on the spot. He then went into the kitchen and drank a beer.  As he watched a football game on television and drank his beer, he became even more enraged.  At half-time, Howard went to the local gun store and purchased a .38 caliber revolver.  He then went home and killed Susan, who was hiding under the bed.  Howard watched the rest of the game, then went to bed. Discussion Questions: 

  1. What crimes, if any, is he guilty of? 
  2. Students will be marked down for postings that are “posted” in a manner where they cannot be discussed (i.e. posting required comments on Saturday at 11:45 p.m.). One or two sentences “comments” will be graded down.
