In capital murder cases, there are several alternatives to explore that may lessen the impact of a possible capital murder conviction:
An acquittal is the opposite of a conviction. Acquittals can be a verdict of not guilty, but may also be a factor that terminates criminal proceedings without a verdict being entered.
Before the defendant is found guilty of capital murder, it may be possible to plea bargain for conviction of a lesser offense, including 2nd degree murder or manslaughter. A sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole can be pursed in place of the death penalty.
However, if the defendant is convicted of 1st degree capital murder, there is an additional sentencing hearing where the jury must decide whether to sentence the defendant to death or life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Contact us online or call 910-347-1800. We are available to meet in our office or in jail, as needed.
