The Religion Of Peace Strikes Again

Couldn't he have just divorced her?
"The estranged wife of a Muslim television executive feared for her life after filing for divorce last month from her abusive husband, her attorney said — and was found beheaded Thursday in his upstate New York television studio.

Aasiya Z. Hassan, 37, was found dead on Thursday at the offices of Bridges TV in Orchard Park, N.Y., near Buffalo. Her husband, Muzzammil Hassan, 44, has reportedly been charged with second-degree murder."
But of course this is just a random beheading Islamic nut jobs NEVER do that. Now here's my question. Why on earth would he be charged with SECOND degree murder and not FIRST degree. I mean he had to have planned it. And beheading is not exactly something that one does easily. I've seen the video's.
