Murder


Murder is the highest offense a person can be charged with in Indiana. The potential penalties that are assigned from this charge are much higher than all other charges. Hiring an experienced criminal attorney in Lafayette, West Lafayette, or Tippecanoe County is imperative to your defense. If you have been arrested, give Vonderheide and Knecht a call as early as possible so that we can go to work for you!

Prison Sentences and Fines

The potential prison sentence is 45 to 65 years in an Indiana Department of Correction facility. There are limitations to getting a portion of the sentence suspended. In a murder conviction, only the time in excess of 45 years may be suspended. The fine associated with a murder charge is up to $10,000.00.
