NC: Types of homicide All NC laws: https://www.ncga.state.nc.us/gascripts/Statutes/StatutesTOC.pl Homicide, section 14.17 https://www.ncga.state.nc.us/EnactedLegislation/Statutes/HTML/ByA rticle/Chapter_14/Article_6.html Vehicle code, Chapter 20: For deaths, see section 20-141.4. Criminal code, Chapter 14 Criminal procedure, Chapter 15

So, various punishments for different types of homicide: Crime Offense Class Minimum (no prior record, in months) First degree murder A LWOP Second degree murder B1, B2 192; 125 Felony and misdemeanor death by vehicle, impaired boating B2 125 Assault with intent to kill, inflicting serious injury C 58 Voluntary manslaughter D 51 Assault with intent to kill E 20 Involuntary manslaughter F 13

Which of these crimes deserves death? See the McGauthaExercise.pdf on the class web site. Rate each of them from most deserving (1) to least deserving (10) Take a few minutes and I’ll ask for results in a series of poll everywhere slides, from first to last of the 10 cases presented. For each one, rank it on the scale from worst to least bad… Take notes for a few minutes on how you would rate each scenario. (Note you are not voting for death, just ranking in order of most deserving) Thanks for Prof. Carol Steiker of Harvard Law School for these questions.
