Understanding Your Charges: Murder, Manslaughter & Homicide

While both manslaughter and murder involve homicide, there are legal distinctions between the two. First-degree murder is a crime of "intent." This means that the defendant planned to murder and intended to kill. In order for the prosecution to prove murder in the first degree, they must first prove intent.

One example of murder in the first degree would be where the defendant entered a home with a shotgun and went to each bedroom killing the residents as they slept in their beds.

In a felony murder case, it isn't necessary for the prosecution to prove intent, only that a murder occurred during the commission of another felony crime or during an attempt to commit another crime. In the state of New Jersey, murder is a first-degree felony crime that is punishable by 30 years in prison to life without parole.
