In the state of New York, the common law felony murder rule has been codified in New York Penal Law § 125.25.〔(§ 125.25 Murder in the second degree. )〕 The New York version of the rule provides that a death occurring during the commission of certain felonies becomes second degree murder. ==Affirmative defenses== The rule also provides an affirmative defense.〔McCarthy, K.E. ''Felony Murder.'' Connecticut General Assembly Office of Legislative Research. 13 February 2008〕 The defendant has an affirmative defense if the crime was committed in a group and he or she: *Did not actually commit, solicit, or aid the homicide, and *Was not armed with a deadly weapon, and *Had no reason to believe that another participant carried a deadly weapon, and *Had no reason to believe that another participant intended to engage in conduct likely to cause death or serious bodily injury 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Felony murder rule (New York)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
