"So again, does anyone know if there's a chance Cheney could still be in legal trouble if Whittington dies?"
No legal trouble.
Couldn't he still be charged with some type of manslaughter? Unintentional? I think in GA he could, but I pinged someone else to this who may know. Or maybe that's just if it happens in the act of a crime?
Heck I don't know, but it may be up to the D.A. if any charges could be files.
The family could file a civil suit probably.
Sure its funny when some politicians play with guns
