The Eleventh Circuit has determined that Georgia’s malice murder statute qualifies as a crime of violence. “The Georgia malice murder statute states that ‘[a] person commits the offense of murder when he unlawfully and with malice aforethought, either express or implied, causes the death of another human being.’ Because we have held that killing in such a manner necessarily entails the use of physical force against the person of another, we conclude that Georgia malice murder . . . is a crime of violence under Section 924(c)’s elements clause.”
