Over 4 days, we will study the crimes against the person in this class, including 1st degree murder, 2nd degree murder, felony murder, voluntary and involuntary manslaughter, assault, battery, and kidnapping.
Class Experience
US Grade 9 - 12
What is the difference between first and second degree murder? What is felony murder? What role does the "heat of passion" play in voluntary manslaughter? We will explore all of this and more in an interactive and exciting way. We will be studying the common law version of these crimes as they may be different in every state or country (which we will also explore).
