Question - Tony Trattore is the key organized crime boss in the Providence, Rhode Island area of New England. His rival, Sammy Scippeleoni, is always looking for ways to move in on the lucrative drugs, prostitution, and extortion rackets in the Providence area. Sammy has finally decided this is the time to do away with Tony. Sammy has never met any of Tony's bodyguards and has no beef with them. Sammy is eating dinner at a restaurant and he tells three of his cronies, Mayer, Eddie, and Tommy to "take care of it". Maria, Sammy's adult daughter, is also present at the dinner table and hears this conversation.

Trattore is just leaving his favorite hangout, Louie's, a local restaurant and bar. Eddie and Mayer, having figured out some of Tony's routines, are driving towards the restaurant, where they spot Tony leaving. Just as Tony gets into his car, Mayer, from the passenger side of the car, fires three shots from his gun at Tony and missed. Instead, the bullets hit one of Tony's bodyguards, killing him. Eddie, at the wheel of the car, drives away after Mayer hops in. The murder weapon belongs to Tommy, who was not in the car with the killer(s). Other than providing the weapon, Tommy had no role in Tony's death. Before getting out of town, Eddie drives to Brenda's house, and asks her to take the gun and keep it, which she does. Eventually, the police arrest Sammy, his three cronies, Maria, and Brenda for the murder of Tony's bodyguard.

How would I analyze each person's situation, one person at a time to determine whether the state can sustain murder charges (as principals or accessories under California law (PC 30-32)) against them individually?

Can any of the people in this situation also be charged with solicitation, attempted crimes, and/or conspiracy?
