Explain the legal categories of homicide
What will be an ideal response?
• There are two broad categories: murder and manslaughter. Murder can be first degree (includes premeditation and planning) and second degree (lesser offense, but requires an attempt to kill the intended victim). Manslaughter can be voluntary (killing in an act of passion without premeditation) or involuntary (the accidental or nonintentional death of another person due to severe negligence).
