Nashville Murder Defense Lawyer

Smyrna Homicide Defense Attorney

Murder is the ultimate crime. Conviction on a first-degree murder charge can result in the ultimate punishment: death. Who will you trust with the responsibility of defending you if your life hangs in the balance?

People in Nashville and throughout Tennessee trust criminal defense lawyer Rob McKinney to defend them against murder charges. He has achieved positive results for clients facing murder charges and other charges involving the loss of a life such as second-degree murder and vehicular homicide.

"I Might Have Shot Someone"

Rob McKinney has defended people charged with crimes since 1994. Over the years, he has had many people call and tell him: "I might have shot someone." If you find yourself in this situation, it is important to speak to a criminal defense attorney who has the experience to defend you. Rob McKinney has a positive record in defending people charged with murder.

We will examine all the options in defending your case. Some of them include:

  • Identification issues: We may dispute the evidence by which the police have linked you to the crime. Eye-witness accounts have been shown to be unreliable. Other evidence must be carefully scrutinized.
  • Tool mark analysis: Also known as ballistics, this method for matching a cartridge to the gun it was ejected from is far from perfect. We will work with a respected expert who can explain why the results of this analysis are not credible.
  • Overcharging: Prosecutors may charge suspects with first-degree murder when the facts do not support it. We are frequently successful in getting first-degree murder charges reduced to lesser crimes that are not punishable by the death penalty such as second-degree murder or manslaughter.
