To do this search on either Yahoo! Search or Google, you should search "homicide" and "recidivism."  Presumably, that will yield results that you should find very helpful.  Should not, change "homicide" to "murder."  Best of luck to you.

Capital Murder is a legal definition, meaning punishable by the death penalty.  It varies state to state, but usually requires mitigating factors.  Just shooting someone doesn't always do it.  You have to shoot someone while commiting another felony (ie robbing a bank or post office) or multiple murders.  Each state has different laws, but Capital murder means you are eligable for death.

Perhaps you are referring to the 12 felonies that, if someone dies during the commission of them, one can be charged with felony murder. Those are: "any arson, escape, murder, kidnapping, treason, espionage, sabotage, aggravated sexual abuse or sexual abuse, burglary, or robbery; or perpetrated from a premeditated design unlawfully and maliciously to effect the death of any human being other than him who is killed"

Each state defines their crimes differently, so it's impossible to say exactly what the charge is without knowing the state. How sure the state is that it happened is irrelevant. A first degree sex offence might involve using force and a weapon, while second degree would be using force but no weapon. Or first degree could be intercourse with a child under a certain age (say 9) and second degree intercourse with a child between that age and the age of consent (say 9-16). Again, it depends entirely on the state.\n\nEdit: In North Carolina a second degree sexual offense is when the person engages in a "sexaul act" (which they define as "cunnilingus, fellatio, analingus, or anal intercourse, but does not include vaginal intercourse. Sexual act also means the penetration, however slight, by any object into the genital or anal opening of another person's body.") with someone by force and against their will or with someone who is "mentally disabled, mentally incapacitated, or physically helpless" and the person knew or reasonably should have known so. It is a Class C felony, typically punishable as a first offense by 58-73 months.
