They do when they are single and can’t afford the ridiculous amounts they are charging.

My comment was on the ignorent, bigoted, and irrational hate filled comment. It was clearly not an ad-hominen attack. This reply from you is innacurate and silly.

Yup, likely will be charged with involuntary manslaughter or equivalent.

From Findlaw:

Voluntary or Involuntary?
Manslaughter is further separated into two categories, voluntary and involuntary.

In voluntary manslaughter, the death happened “in the heat of passion,” often after the defendant was provoked or when self-defense gets out of hand.

The defendant has no prior malice towards to the victim and didn’t plan the killing at any point. But they did intend to cause serious harm in the moment, and that resulted in death.

With involuntary manslaughter, the killing is unintentional and could be called accidental. But the “accident” is caused by the defendant’s reckless behavior, such as drunken driving or DUI.

The law then serves to discourage that kind of unsafe action by punishing people who cause serious harm as a result. The charges penalize the inappropriate behavior, rather than punish the defendant for the unintentional killing.

That doesn’t mean persons convicted of involuntary manslaughter escape without punishment. But their sentence is often lighter than those convicted of murder, and they could be charged with a misdemeanor instead of a felony.

Baldwin has more money than the Deputy. The United States has the best Criminal Justice money can buy. If you don't believe it, ask the victims of Austin Harcoff’s family. Before Christmas, he will be back on the street shooting birds at them.
