Types of Murder and Manslaughter Charges in Long Beach
There are several types of charges in these cases. Murder is a criminal act in which a person intentionally kills another person with no justification or valid excuse. There is more than one degree of murder. First degree murder is the act of murder in which the murder has been planned or premeditated. It is a very serious offense and considered more heinous as the defendant actually planned to take another person’s life without excuse. Second degree murder is a lesser charge in which a person has taken another person’s life by an attack that had not been planned, there was no intent to kill, or the defendant committed reckless acts that resulted in the death of another individual. Your life is at risk if you are convicted of first degree murder. The death penalty is a possibility in the State of California.
There are also different types of manslaughter charges. Voluntary Manslaughter is the charge if a person is killed during an argument, disagreement or fight, or suddenly in the heat of the moment. Involuntary Manslaughter is the charge when the death of the victim was an accident or happened in the commission of another crime that is not a felony. Vehicular Manslaughter is the charge if a person has been negligent in the operation of a vehicle and the result was the death of another human being.
