Ronald Chapman, Florida Vehicular Homicide Lawyer / Attorney
Vehicular HomicideBefore a person can be convicted of vehicular homicide, the prosecution must prove more than a mere failure to use ordinary care. Instead, it must prove the following three things beyond a reasonable doubt:
The prosecution does not have to prove that the accused individual intended to harm or injure the victim or any other person.
- The victim is dead; and
- The victim’s death was caused by the operation of a motor vehicle by the person accused of vehicular homicide; and
- The accused operated the motor vehicle in a reckless manner likely to cause the death of another person or great bodily harm to another person.
