Homicide is the killing of another human being by one or more others. In contrast, suicide is the self killing of a human being.

Legally homicide is classified as either justifiable homicide which is not a crime, or the following crimes:

murder
manslaughter
- voluntary manslaughter
- involuntary manslaughter
homicide
- negligent homicide (in some jurisdictions)
  - reckless manslaughter
  - mere negligence
- excusable homicide
- justifiable homicide
- legal homicide

Defenses against homicide, where the identity of the killer is not in dispute, include insanity and self-defense. Defense of property is not per se a defense against homicide, although a homicide where self-defense became necessary as a result of undertaking defense of property may be justifiable homicide.
