First degree murder is odd to me too. I think he accidentally killed her while raping her

First degree murder is odd to me too. I think he accidentally killed her while raping her I think that's due to the "in the process of committing a specific felony" while the murder occurred portion. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felony_murder_rule_(California)So not while premeditated in this case, but while committing the rape. I'm NAL, though, but I think that's why it's the case.

I would not tell on myself if it were me. If someone is going around raping and killing then I wouldn't expect them to take the moral high ground suddenly and do the right thing.
Most killers that have were cold busted. That is not the case here.

The Flores family has such animosity towards the Smarts that I’m sure they’ll never tell out of spite, if nothing else.

Paul Flores was moved to a new prison last week and then attacked a couple of days ago. Throat cut. Not dead. He remains in serious condition. Dept of Corrections would not really confirm attack but said it was under investigation.
Anyway, his attorney did confirm the attack.

Dept of Corrections would not really confirm attack but said it was under investigation. Anyway, his attorney did confirm the attack. i loved the smart family attorney's comments. “It was the conduct of Paul Flores that resulted in Kristin Smart’s death. It was the conduct of Paul Flores that put him in prison where he belongs. My office and the Smart family do not condone violence. Sometimes in life, your karma comes.”
