Murder has intent, premeditation, or was done in the course of another felony.
Manslaughter is when a person causes someone else's death, but had no intention of doing it.

if you murdered someone and were found guilty you could get the electric chair but if you killed someone like in a car accident then that would be manslaughter and you would have jail time or a penalty or community service depending on the legal system where you reside.

Assassination refers back to the homicide of a head of state or different substantial individual (Martin Luther King Jr., as an occasion) and is politically inspired. i don't think of this is a criminal term. some people say Tupac Shakur substitute into assassinated, yet i for my area could in simple terms call it homicide. homicide is the unlawful killing of yet another individual. there are diverse criminal 'levels', which ought to do with premeditation, reason, approach. Manslaughter is an unintended or unintended killing via negligence yet devoid of premeditation. The in charge occasion in a deadly motor vehicle twist of fate could be charged with manslaughter.

To have murder, you must have what is called malice. Which is the planning of one's murder, but their are loopholes in the term murder. Battered wives, children, etc. People who snap and commit murder didn't plan it out. In those cases they still have to pay for what they did so they knock it down to manslaughter.
