1Opinion of the Court
STEPHEN H. ANDERSON, Circuit Judge.
In this case, we are asked to decide whether an Oklahoma state court decision that interpreted Oklahoma’s first-degree felony murder statute to include the underlying crime of attempted robbery with a dangerous weapon unforeseeably enhanced the punishment of an offense in violation of defendant’s Fourteenth Amendment due process rights. We are also asked to determine whether the trial court violated defendant’s due process rights by failing to instruct the jury on all the elements of first-degree felony murder.
Petitioner-Appellant, Alan J. McDonald…
