Any murder whether intentional or not that happens during the commission of a dangerous felony falls under the felony murder rule. All people who either conspired to commit the dangerous felony and/or actively participated in it can be prosecuted for felony murder. This is irrespective of whether the burglary occurred (in time and space) away from the victims death.
