And you appear not to understand the idea that attempted murder, which is unsuccessful (in terms of killing someone), turns into manslaughter when successful basically defies all logic. Yeh, it might be a quirk of the legal system. Big deal, but still stupid.

Exactly - when he tried to murder someone, it was attempted murder - so as far as I'm concerned, when he succeeded in actually killing someone, it was murder. Was his state of mind different when he tried to kill but didn't quite manage it?
Rubbish! You could see in two minutes the charges were just a conspiracy cooked up by the police, the establishment and the chief lizards in Buckingham Palace.
Re: the real trial, I voted murder - yes, with diminished responsibility, so incarceration in a (very) secure mental institution...
