Murder/Manslaughter
Serious Charges Warrant Serious Defenders
The law defines murder and manslaughter as the killing of another person by negligence, recklessness, or intentionally. A murder conviction can result in a life sentence. A person convicted of murder must serve at least 30 years in prison before they can be released. Those convicted of manslaughter face mandatory prison sentences, many of which require the person to serve at least 85 percent of his or her sentence.
