Criminal Homicide Offenses in Texas

/in /by

Create a one-two page paper discussing your position on Criminal Homicide Offenses in Texas (Chapter 5). Using the Crime Graph – Criminal Homicide Offenses on pages 124 – 127 (take note of the penalty for each crime on the last column of the graph), answer the following questions:

  1. Should the Texas Legislature establish degrees of murder in order to ensure more fair and consistent sentences? Does the range of penalty for murder – 5 to 99 years – allow too much discretion on the part of the sentencing authority, i.e., judge or jury?
  2. Should the felony murder rule (Criminal Negligent Homicide 19.05(a) from the Crime Graph) be restricted to apply only to those dangerous felonies that require proof of intent or knowledge?
  3. Does the capital murder statute cover all circumstances and victims that you consider the most serious forms of criminal homicide in our society? What should be added? What should be deleted from the current statute?
