### Fact Summary

A planned to C's house to take two paintings and sell them. A told B of her plan and offered to pay him a part of the proceeds if B gave her a ride and helped her load the paintings into his van. B said he needed to think it over. Shortly after sunset on Saturday night, Ben picked Ava up and they drove in his van to Claire’s house. Ava used a copy she had made of a key that Claire had given her to open the locked front door. Claire was sick with the flu and had decided not to go to her book club meeting. Claire walked into her living room just as Ava and Ben were taking down the first painting. Claire suffered from a serious heart condition. Claire screamed when she saw Ava and Ben, had a heart attack, collapsed, and died. Ben, not realizing that Claire had died, told Ava that he was through doing jobs with her and used his cell phone to call an ambulance. After Ben hung up the phone, Ava ran out without the paintings, but saw Claire’s diamond watch on a table, grabbed it, and took it with her as she fled.
