Manslaughter Charges
A charge of manslaughter can be brought in cases where the death was caused by accidental or reckless behavior. For example, Manslaughter charges may result from a bar fight that results in someone’s death, a car crash that is caused by driving over the speed limit or recklessly, or an altercation between two people that ends with one of them dying.
Murder Charges
Murder charges are more serious than manslaughter charges, as they involve deliberate intent to kill another person. Murder may be charged in cases where the defendant acted with premeditation, had an intent to cause grievous bodily harm or death, or exhibited a reckless disregard for human life.
