Attempted Murder
Getting Charged with Attempted Murder in Mississippi
Attempted murder is just that, an attempt to murder somebody. This charge is reserved for people who unsuccessfully try to kill another person. For whatever reason, the murder didn’t happen, and even though you didn’t actually take someone’s life, you’ve still committed a very serious crime. Whether you changed your mind at the last minute, or your plans were thwarted, you need to have experienced and skilled representation to make sure your rights are being protected in the criminal justice system.
Elements of an Attempted Murder Charge
- Did you take some action towards the taking of another human’s life?
- Was that action intended to kill another person?
