First degree murder occurs in five situations: (1) a premeditated and intentional killing; (2) a killing during the commission of certain dangerous felonies like robbery, burglary, kidnapping, or child abuse; (3) a killing caused by throwing or discharging a bomb or destructive device; (4) a killing during an act of terrorism; or (5) a killing during rape or aggravated rape. A conviction results in death, life without parole, or life imprisonment—except for those under 18 at the time of the offense, who cannot receive the death penalty.
