It depends on where the murder is committed as well as how, why, and by what method. Murder has different degrees in some but not all jurisdictions and sentences can range from probation to the death penalty but usually somewhere in between. In some areas a 1st degree murder conviction is a mandatory life without the possibility of parole sentence.
