But for them to get a deal like that there must have been some kind of evidentiary or other issues with the case. I can't see what there could be, I haven't looked into the case much, but perhaps something that made it other than a typical murder committed during a robbery. One issue is that they couldn't figure out which one pulled the trigger, but that really shouldn't matter, the state is allowed to prosecute both equally without having to prove which one was the actual triggerperson.
I find it interesting that none of the Women ratted out the other Woman as being the gun woman in order to reduce her own sentence. MANY people would have ratted out their Crime Partner for a chance to reduce their own sentence. I guess these two had some sort of honor to not throw their Crime Partner under the bus.
