Felony murder is a legal rule that expands the definition of murder. It applies when someone commits a felony and someone else dies in the course of it. It doesn't matter whether the death was intentional or accidental.

Felony murder is a legal description used when every member taking part in the commission of a felony is attributed responsibility for a murder that takes place as a result. Think bank robbery getaway driver - he can be across the street when the bank guard is murdered inside, but the felony murder rule says the driver can be charged and convicted with murder.
