My other half and I were discussing this the other day and he reckons not.

But I know he's wrong! There's Carl in Emmerdale who murdered his Dad.
And didn't Louise in Emmerdale murder her boyfriend Ray?

Any More?

Well so far Lucas has got away with two murders in Eastenders - his ex-wife (which was an accident but he covered it up) and Owen.

Would there be an outcry if he was never caught?

That was kill or be killed wasn't it? And poor Dennis ended up dead himself!

Just wondered if there was any characters who carried on living a normal life after murder?

Dot did.
what about paulines last old man, didnt it end up he wacked her around the head after sonia did then he topped himself.
Nick cottens got off with loads, he killed Eddie and set up Clyde for it, tampered with marks breaks which ended up killing ashley and done reg cox and theres probably more.

Nick Cotton in EE killed Reg Cox in the very first episode and got away with it. He killed pub landlord Eddie Royle a few years later and although he was charged he was found not guilty in court - so got away with it again. And finally he killed his son Ashley accidentally when he sabotaged Mark Fowler's motorbike. So in all he has got away with 3 murders.

In a way, Warren got away with killing Shaun and Louise (assuming he did, of course, which I'm hoping he didn't)

Janine Butcher has killed both husband Barry and Danielle (although accidentally) and she has got away with it both times. However ironically she went to prison for Laura's murder but was found not guilty as she was actually innocent.

Janine didn't kill Barry, he lost his balance and fell. She chose not to help him though.

Andy Sugden have also got away with Murder in Emmerdale.
Andy has never murdered anyone?

Didn't Eric Pollard kill one of his wives in Emmerdale and then pretend that she had been a victim of that plane that landed on the village?

Angelo Rosetta (H&A) - killed Jack Holden; albeit accidentally, and evaded the long arm of the law by cutting some kind of weird deal, which sees him earning a nice police pay cheque!

Janine didn't kill Barry, he lost his balance and fell. She chose not to help him though.
Exactly! Janine's actions regarding Barry, are no different to Lucas' actions regarding Trina. But some people are too biased to see that.

No it is no different except you could perhaps say that Lucas was cowardly and Janine wasn't.Also Janine did not cover it up in quite the same way Lucas did.
