First Degree Murder: In order for someone to be found guilty of first degree murder, the person killed the other person with malice or the killing was premeditated. Premiditated means, killing someone intentionally or was planned. With a sentence of death penalty or life imprisonment.

Second Degree Murder: it is somewhat the same with First Degree Murder. The difference it with the senctence the could be charged with. The maximum sentence for a second degree murder conviction is imprisonment for life with parole eligibility after fifteen years. It should also be noted that, unlike first degree murder, a defendant in a second degree murder case may waive the right to a jury and submit to a trial in which a judge determines guilt or innocence, otherwise known as a bench trial.
