    Well, one, you just turned robbery into murder.

    Two, a robber is more interested in your possessions/money.

    Three, a dead person can't give you stuff on demand.

    Couple things, and I'm aware of recent events.

    Shot != Murder. People have survived being shot before.

    People have also been shot while being robbed.

    Idk man, doesn't seem like good logic. You label him a robber because he says he's a robber. At the end of the day, he's a criminal so how can you assume he's telling the truth? He's already willing to break the law. So you can't really infer he's not a murderer. At least I can't, maybe you can read minds or something.

    This is where the name of Stockholm syndrome comes from. It's not that you fall in love with your captors, but rather that you fear less for your safety with the captors than with the police getting involved.
