Understanding Murder Charges in Texas

Murder is one of the most serious charges under Texas law, and it carries severe penalties. In Texas, murder generally falls under two categories: first-degree murder and capital murder. While both are serious offenses, the penalties differ depending on the specific circumstances of the case.

First-degree murder occurs when someone intentionally or knowingly causes the death of another person. It can also apply in situations where an individual commits a dangerous felony, and a death results from their actions, even if unintentional. Capital murder, on the other hand, involves circumstances that elevate the crime's severity, such as killing a police officer, multiple victims, or committing murder during another felony like kidnapping or robbery.

Convictions for murder can lead to life imprisonment or even the death penalty in capital cases. With so much on the line, it’s critical to have an experienced murder defense lawyer to protect your rights and craft a defense tailored to your case.
