Killing someone accidentally is manslaughter. That is the definition. Whether they get convicted or not, as in the tragic Kate Steinle case, is another story. In the example you're using, the family decided not to press charges. That's not what I'm arguing at all

In the example you're using, the family decided not to press charges. That's not what I'm arguing at all Wrong. Killing someone accidentally may not be manslaughter. If the jurors feel that it was not the result of gross negligence (in this case the defense argued he picked up a gun from a bag on the ground and it discharged as he was handling the bag and unaware it was a gun) then that is not manslaughter. So no, accidental killing is not the full definition of manslaughter. There's a threshold of recklessness needed. The jury felt that threshold wasn't crossed. --- David Mink.

Lmao you are literally describing involuntary manslaughter Nope https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manslaughter_(United_States_law) Involuntary or unintentional manslaughter involves the killing of another person without the intent to kill, but where a death occurs through the negligent or reckless actions of the defendant. As I've said many times before, recklessness is necessary for even involuntary manslaughter. Accidentally killing alone does not meet the requirements for manslaughter. His defense was he simply picked something from the ground not realizing it was a gun and it went off. --- David Mink. Hero. https://c1.staticflickr.com/7/6043/6337878059_009dd4c4f3_z.jpg ...

Wow. Lol. The fact that he shot a deadly weapon, "not realizing" it was a deadly weapon, resulting in the death of someone is the exact criteria of negligence and recklessness

Wow. Lol. The fact that he shot a deadly weapon, "not realizing" it was a deadly weapon, resulting in the death of someone is the exact criteria of negligence and recklessness This is akin to saying picking up a bag that has a motion sensor bomb which then goes off is reckless. People often pick up objects they're unsure of to inspect them. There's nothing reckless about it. It's clear you don't do any law as you were even unaware of the definition of manslaughter. Unless you are to tell me you're a lawyer that knows no laws. But this is irrevelant to my main points anyway. My point is: 1. Accidental killing is not always manslaughter and 2. The defense argued that the defendent was completely unaware he had picked up the dangerous object and that it fired as he was handling it to see what it was. In other words, they argued that it was not even manslaughter. I am not even arguing whether that was the case or not, but what his defense argued. --- David Mink.

He didn't get that charge. They weren't even arguing against it. There is no dispute that he killed her. But the jury, a bunch of anti trump liberals, wanted to "stick it to trump" and let him off on that one And you never addressed this one, Mr. Lawyer. Since you are so well-versed in law, can you tell me how you became aware of the political spectrum of the jurors? And how did you know they did it to "stick it to Trump?" Thanks again, Mr. Lawyer. --- David Mink. Hero. https://c1.staticflickr.com/7/6043/6337878059_009dd4c4f3_z.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well he did, but in that case he engaged in reckless behavior that would qualify it as manslaughter. Whereas the defense argued he was unaware of what he picked up until it was too late. Not saying I'm buying it, but that's what the defense argued. And it must have instilled reasonable doubt in the jury. --- David Mink.

ChainedRedone posted... Though it was an accident and I do believe regardless of how he obtained the weapon, he unintentionally pulled the trigger. Most people, even the ones who think he's guilty believe it was accidental. But you're free to have differing opinions. --- David Mink.
