Michael Dunn Verdict: I don't get it.

May be I am looking at this wrong and do not understand the way the law is written but how does someone get convicted of 3 counts of attempted murder and not on murder when the forth person is dead because he was shot to death by the guy who was convicted on attempted murder.

Seems to me that if you are convicted on three counts of attempted murder you would automatically convicted of murder because you succeeded in killing one of the people.

Can one of you lawyer types explain this to me in small layman type words?
