what are the types of homicide?

As far as I understand it, there is only one 'type' of homicide.  That is a human killing another human.  If you mean DEGREES of homocide, then that's a whole different story.\n\nModern codifications tend to create a genus of offenses, known collectively as homicide, of which murder is the most serious species, followed by manslaughter which is less serious, and ending finally in justifiable homicide, which is not a crime at all. Because there are 51 jurisdictions, each with its own criminal code, this section treats only the crime of murder, and does not deal with state-by-state specifics.\n\nAt base, murder consists of an intentional unlawful act with a design to kill and fatal consequences. Generally, an intention to cause great bodily harm is considered indistinguishable from an intention to kill, as is an act so inherently dangerous that any reasonable person would realize the likelihood of fatality. Thus, if the defendant hurled the victim from a bridge, it is no defense to argue that harm was not contemplated, or that the defendant hoped only to break bones.\n\nThe intent to commit murder is often called malice aforethought, and can be inferred when the defendant commits an act that shows depraved indifference to human life, or (in federal court and those states that apply the felony murder rule) whenever a victim is killed during the commission of another felony, whether or not the defendant intended the killing, or even committed the fatal act. In this case, the intention to place the victim in great bodily harm is inferred from the defendant's intent to commit the felony. Some states also require the underlying felony to be an 'inherently' dangerous one.\n\n\n[edit] Degrees of murder\nBefore the famous case of Furman v. Georgia in 1972, most states distinguished two degrees of murder. While the rules differed by state, a reasonably common scheme was that of Pennsylvania, passed in 1794: "Murder which shall be perpetrated by means of poison, or by lying in wait, or by any other kind of wilful, deliberate, and premeditated killing, or which shall be committed in the perpetration or attempt to perpetrate, any arson, rape, robbery, or burglary, shall be deemed murder of the first degree; and all other kinds of murder shall be deemed murder of the second degree."[10] "Murder one", as the term was popularized by novels and television, carried a penalty of death, or life in prison, while the penalty for "murder two" was generally around 20 years in prison.\n\nAfter the Supreme Court placed new requirements on the imposition of the death penalty, most states adopted one of two schemes. In both, third degree murder became the catch-all, while first degree murder was split. The difference was whether some or all first degree murders should be eligible for the most serious penalty (generally death, but sometimes life in prison without the possibility of parole.).\n\nThe first scheme, used by Pennsylvania among other states: \nFirst Degree Murder: All premeditated murders, and (in some states) murders involving certain especially dangerous felonies, such as arson or rape, or committed by an inmate serving a life sentence. \nSecond Degree Murder: Any felony murder not a first degree murder. \nThird Degree Murder: All other murder. \nThe second scheme, used by New York among other states, as well as the Model Penal Code: \nFirst Degree Murder: Murder involving special circumstances, such as murder of a police officer, judge, fireman or witness to a crime; multiple murders; and torture or especially heinous murders. Note that a "regular" premeditated murder, absent such special circumstances, is not a first-degree murder; murders by poison or "lying in wait" are not per se first-degree murders. \nSecond Degree Murder: Any premeditated murder or felony murder that does not involve special circumstances. \nSome states, such as California, simply preserved the o

The above is pretty much correct.  First degree is generally either willful, deliberate, and premeditated murder, murder with malice aforethought (basically the same) or special circumstances murder (killing a police officer, using an explosive device, or lying in wait, etc.)\n\nSecond degree murder is all other murder.\n\nManslaughter (voluntary) is a killing in the heat of passion, and is generally the third category.  I've never heard of 3rd degree murder.  Manslaughter (involuntary) is generally negligent, misdeameanor, or vehicular manslaughter.\n\n"Willful, deliberate, premeditated" - means it was planned out, even if only for a moment, and doen with the intent to kill the person.\n\n"Malice aforethought" - means it was done 1) with an intent to kill, 2) with an intent to cause great bodily harm (hurt 'em bad), or 3) with recklessness or disregard of human life (so horribly carelessly knowing that it was likely to hurt or kill someone).\n\n"Heat of Passion" - means extreme provocation, so that the person is so upset that they actually lose control (more than just really angry).\n\nAnd, of course, this all depends on what state is defining it.

In simple words: manslaughter is without malice. Murder is intenionally.

Murder-you have no right to inflict harm unto another living soul. But sin and suicide are almost equally as bad. There is always an alternative.

pretty sure there is only first and second degree murder.\nfirst means that it was pre-meditated, or that you thought it out and had a plan.\nsecond means that it happened "in the heat of the moment"

That depends on the crime. Different crimes have different statutes of limitations, and those all vary by the jurisdiction. Some do not have limits, such as murder.

That will depend on which State you are referring to, each State has its own classification for crimes as well as the recommended time for each classification.  check your local statutes on line or at your local library.  You could be more specific and I could answer a bit more specific
