Criminal Law Homicide
Degrees Of Murder And Defenses

Book Cover & Preview Text
The sometimes harsh nature of the criminal justice and the idea of sentencing have made many to wonder whether “punishment” as the word is normally used, is designed as a retributive measure of dealing with the offender for crime committed or as a deterrence from the commission of future crimes. Others believe that punishment for a crime help rehabilitate the offender, while some think it is a way of incapacitating the offender and keeping such people where they belong- the prison. Irrespective of individual notion of punishment, the most important value is that, there is a process in place in the United States as in other civilized nations, recognized and constitutionally respected for dealing with crimes and for delivering justice, based on settled criminal law, under both the State and Federal justice system. With the book, I carefully carved homicide law out of criminal law, by focusing on court cases dealing with homicide and by asking thought provoking questions that provides better understanding and knowledge of the crime of homicide, as a branch of criminal law.
