Manslaughter Vs. Murder: What’s the Difference?
Manslaughter and murder often get used interchangeably, as if they are the same crime. While both charges do involve the taking of someone’s life, they are actually completely different under the law, especially when it comes to the penalties you may face. Knowing the difference between a manslaughter charge and a murder charge could mean getting out of jail in a few years or being stuck behind bars for your entire life.
