How courts have described this case

- holding that a murder clearly was premeditated when the fatal shots were not the first shots defendant fired
- because there was evidence that fatal gunshots were not fired until the decedent had time to turn around and run and because this was “more than a barely appreciable length of time,” the defendant was not entitled to a second-degree-murder charge
