Third degree murder can be defined as homicide committed with the intention of causing bodily harm, but not necessarily death. It can be a killing that results from indifference or negligence or recklessness. Statutes defining third degree murder vary considerably from state to state. In California murders are classified into two- first degree and second degree. . Example of a State statute defining Third degree murder Minn. Stat. § 609.195 MURDER IN THE THIRD DEGREE (a) Whoever, without intent to effect the death of any person, causes the death of another by perpetrating an act eminently dangerous to others and evincing a depraved mind, without regard for human life, is guilty of murder in the third degree and may be sentenced to imprisonment for not more than 25 years. . This in my opinion is a good charge. They covered themselves with manslaughter in case 3rd degree murder is not “proved”. Which I am not sure how, with his hands in his pockets all leisurely with that smug look on his face. But I think they think they can prove this and that’s why the charge. I mentioned in a post previously about not overcharging. I know it’s what we feel like. But this is provable…. . #goodstart #georgefloyd #thirddegreemurder #manslaughter #blackonblackbk #blacklivesmatter #wefight #weresist #wewillwin #outfittingtherevolution #deconstructtheconstruct #itslifeordeathforus #civilrights no #racism #alliesandchampions #notagame #resistance #rebellion (at Bedford–Stuyvesant, Brooklyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAyZulLpLj7/?igshid=z69fnbztnhs9
