Murder is defined as causing the unlawful death of another person, with malice forethought. Murder typically involves planning and premeditation, such as lying in wait or purchasing a weapon, etc. If convicted of murder, a defendant may face life in prison or even death. Whether the defendant is eligible for parole or will face the death penalty will vary depending upon the particular circumstances of the offense.
Defending Murder Charges in Tennessee
To secure a conviction for murder under Tennessee law, the prosecuting attorney must prove that the defendant committed the act, the defendant acted with malice aforethought, and that the defendant had no lawful excuse for the act (such as self defense or a police officer carrying out his or her duty.) In building a defense for murder charges, each aspect of a case will be crucial. Your lawyer will need to go through all aspects of your charges, arrest and the investigation that led to your arrest in order to determine how to best weaken the prosecution’s case against you.
