Manslaughter involves an act of unlawful homicide, typically due to criminal negligence and not involving premeditation or malice aforethought.

Although manslaughter is a lesser form of criminal homicide than murder, it may still be punishable by up to life in prison under Florida law.

About Manslaughter Charges in Miami, Florida

Manslaughter may be classified as a first degree or second degree felony in Florida. First degree manslaughter, or aggravated manslaughter, involves negligent homicide involving an elderly person, a child under 18 years old, or a peace officer. This offense is punishable by life imprisonment. Simple manslaughter, a second degree felony, involves negligently causing the death of another person. This offense is punishable by up to 15 years in state prison. The defendant may also face a fine of up to $10,000 and the reality of dealing with a "strike" on his or her criminal record, leading to double the penalties for any future violent crime conviction for a felony offense.
