What is Considered DUI Manslaughter?
DUI manslaughter is a grave criminal offense that arises when an individual operates a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs, which leads to another person's death. This offense underscores the potentially fatal consequences of driving under the influence and is treated with utmost seriousness by the legal system. In Tennessee, the law recognizes that driving while impaired, which results in the loss of life, requires a comprehensive and fair legal defense.
What are the Penalties for DUI Manslaughter in Tennessee?
