In Texas, malice murder, often classified as capital murder, can result in severe penalties, including life imprisonment without the possibility of parole or the death penalty. The specific sentence depends on factors such as the circumstances of the crime and the defendant's criminal history. If convicted of a non-capital murder charge, the penalty may range from 5 to 99 years in prison. However, Texas does not have a separate offense strictly labeled as "malice murder."
