The statute for Criminal Homicide is contained in section 19.01 of the Texas Penal Code. Under Texas law a person commits criminal homicide if he "intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly, or with criminal negligence causes the death of an individual."
Criminal Homicide includes Murder, Capitol Murder, Manslaughter, or Criminally Negligent Homicide.
