Best Answer

The same steps used to charge someone with any crime is the same for murder. Enough evidence has to be gathered for the person to be charged with it; the person has been arrested and brought before the court for trial. In many states a person must be indicted by a grand jury to be formally charged with murder, but can be arrested and held pending such grand jury indictment.
