Search the Penal Code at www.leginfo.ca.gov. First/second degree murder certainly, maybe also aggravated mayhem, train wrecking, and treason by a member of the Militia (see the Military & Veterans Code). Some sex crimes are also subject to the offender's indefinite confinement as a Mentally Disordered Sex Offender.
