Look at the quote again from Ramone Salinas: ""My opinion is that David Spence was innocent. Nothing from the investigation ever led us to any evidence that he was involved."

They were in the middle of it, and in fact drug conspiracy is a crime in Florida.
In order to prove that Ramone and Jacobs are murderers you would need to establish that they had committed a felony, see below:

"Painfully shy but rolling in more money than he had ever seen, Aikens found drugs during his first year with the Angels.

"I used during the World Series," Aikens said. "But it was just something I did whenever I got the chance."

In 1983, a FBI agent visited the Royals' clubhouse and warned the team they were tapped into a prominent drug dealer's phone and that calling him would be a mistake.

It was a warning shot that four players failed to heed.

Aikens, Jerry Martin, Vida Blue and Willie Wilson were arrested and charged with conspiracy to buy drugs over the phone, a misdemeanor."

It is a determinant, maybe you were 16 at the time. Adults don't run when they have nothing to fear. But it just adds to the fact that they not only ran, but kidnapped someone, stole a car, etc.
I was of legal age. And since I had broken no law, it was not a determinant. Running from the police does imply guilt but it is not written in stone and it is not conclusive.

Sure it is, I just explained several scenarios as to why she was released. You don't really think she's the first person in American history who was released after serving a long time in jail because witnesses disappeared, evidence was lost, witnesses changed their story, etc do you?
She was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. Then she was released before serving her term. Why would a murderer be set free and not tried again for lack of evidence? The only evidence need to prove she was a murderer is the fact that there was some sort of drug deal happening at the time of the event that she was committing a felony and the fact that someone was murdered as a result of it. Plain and simple. Yet free she remains.

Again, that is not my definition.
I know. I'll rephrase for fairness. The definition you provided.

Quote:
I already posted the statute, it clearly said that if someone is killed while in the commission of a felony you are guilty of murder. The kidnapping does not apply, but if that person had died accidentally while kidnapped that, by definition in every state I know of, IS murder.
True but this did not occur. Nobody died as a result of a kidnapping after the officers were dead.

We both disagree, but know where each other stands. Thank you for a civilized debate. I am pretty convinced that these two men died unfairly although they were not good guys by any means. I am pleased that we didn't get involved with a lot of ad homonym attacks as happens alot on this forum.
