voluntary manslaughter.

“Voluntary manslaughter”??? Where I come from, that’s called “cold blooded murder”.

Are there not different charges the county attorney can bring? Involuntary manslaughter, voluntary manslaughter, second degree murder, first degree murder, capital murder, etc.

I think you are barking up the wrong tree. I am not saying people should not be punished for computer intrusion, I am saying computer intrusion is similar to trespassing, and should be treated accordingly.

Causing the death of a man through your negligence and carelessness is manslaughter. For example, tossing a brick from the roof of a building which hits someone in the head, killing them. That's manslaughter.

Premeditation in the act, such as sabotage of someone's automobile, leads to a charge of murder.
