Whittlesey argues that the decision of the Court of Appeals of Maryland violates his constitutional double jeopardy rights because, after being prosecuted for robbery and assault with intent to rob, he was subsequently prosecuted for first degree murder.
Whittlesey was sentenced to a ten-year term for the robbery, a consecutive fifteen-year term for the theft of the automobile and the remaining convictions were merged.
Whittlesey was indicted for first degree murder, which in Maryland is proven by a determination by the trier of fact that the homicide (1) was wilful, deliberate, and premeditated, or (2) was committed in the perpetration of a felony (felony murder).

 The Whittlesey People: Prehistoric farmers of Northeast Ohio
The inhabitants of this ancient village are known collectively to archaeologists as the Whittlesey Tradition, a cultural complex that exhibits similarities in artifact forms and lifeways over an extended period of time and within a defined geographic area.
Their culture was the culmination of almost 12,000 years of prehistoric occupation which began with the arrival of the Paleo-Indians at the close of the Ice Age.
In contrast to these earliest inhabitants, the Whittlesey people were farmers, who grew corn (maize), beans, and squash in small fields that they carved from the native forest of the area.

I suggested (Whittlesey 1997c) that archaeologists attempt to unpack Hohokam culture and examine individual processes contributing to cultural, economic, and social variability across space.
Although this perception is slowly changing, archaeologists have long maintained a view that I have referred to somewhat disparagingly as “residential stasis” (Whittlesey 1995)—the notion that once people established a settlement they never moved away from it unless it was completely abandoned.
