Homicide refers to killing someone and murder falls under unlawful homicide. Lawful homicide can be when police shot someone because they want to shot back.

Under the common law, murder can be intentional if a person can't justify why they killed the victim and if the person committed murder with malice aforethought. Malice aforethought isn't limited to killing driven by hate or out of spite it can also happen if a person intentionally inflicted severe bodily harm that caused the victim to die or if a person acted recklessly with a disregard for the victim's life and as a result the victim ended up dying like in this case a man who shoved this old lady disregarded her life and because of that the old lady died hence it is homicide
