Question:

Joe and Janine are walking home from dinner and a movie one evening when Lucas suddenly pops out from behind a dumpster, points a gun at the couple, and demands they turn over all of their belongings. Joe tries to wrestle away the gun, but both Joe and Janine are fatally wounded. Only after the couple dies from their gunshot wounds does Lucas take their money and jewelry. In addition to criminal homicide, can Lucas be charged with robbery? Why or why not? What if Lucas did not return until the next day to recover the belongings from the bodies? Would that be considered robbery?
