Criminal Defense Attorney talks Murder and Manslaughter on WCCO

Former Police Officer Mohamed Noor will appear before Hennepin County Judge Kathryn Quaintance to be re-sentenced today from a 2019 murder conviction. He was originally convicted on 3rd both degree murder and manslaughter. However, the 3rd degree murder conviction was overturned by the Minnesota Supreme court after the Court determined that the 3rd degree charge simply didn’t apply in this case. As a result, rather than the 12 1/2 year sentence that he received, it is expected that Noor will receive somewhere between 41-57 months. He has already served 29 months and could actually walk out of the courtroom a free man today.

St. Paul Criminal defense attorney Jack Rice appears on WCCO today to discuss murder and manslaughter and how they apply in these different circumstances. Jack is a Board Certified Criminal Law Specialist and founder of Jack Rice Defense.
