   Agreed.  From a legal standpoint, Graystone could be charged with the murder   
   even though he did not request it or sanction it in any way.  Still, the   
   earlier poster, seems to be suggesting that the Adamas remain free from the   
   label of 'murderers'.  Who is it that ultimately arranged and carried out   
   the theft of the chip and the killing of the lab techs?  Didn't the whole   
   process travel right through the Adama family members?  Who is it that   
   ordered the hit (although aborted) on Mrs. Graystone?  I don't see how   
   anyone can claim that Daniel Graystone is a murderer, but that none of the   
   Adamas are.
