Murder

Rancho Cucamonga Murder Defense Attorney

Understanding Murder vs. Manslaughter in California

The killing of a person is a traumatic and serious situation that can have massive implications on your life. For many instances, the charge can be classified as manslaughter or murder. The main difference between the two is malice aforethought, which is the definite intention to kill or harm someone else. Murder is considered to have malice aforethought and manslaughter lacks it.

What Happens If You Are Convicted of Murder

  • Being convicted of murder means you could be subject to:
  • 25 years to life in prison without parole, the death penalty for first-degree murder
  • 15 years to life in prison possibly without parole for second-degree murder
  • 11 years in prison and heavy fines if convicted of voluntary manslaughter
