Homicide & Murder

Homicide charges in Michigan — including first-degree or second-degree murder, manslaughter, and vehicular homicide — are among the most severe crimes under state law.
Convictions can result in life imprisonment, decades behind bars, or permanent loss of freedom.

Prosecutors build these cases aggressively, often relying on forensic evidence, witness statements, and police reports. Every detail matters, and even one procedural error can change the outcome.
