Why do you think charging with manslaughter is an option for the DA?
A criminal homicide is charged as manslaughter when a person "recklessly causes the death of another individual," according to the Texas penal code.
That'd be a slam dunk.

Between that CNN story explaining it wasn't a welfare check, and the fact she pointed a gun at him, good luck on that murder charge.

whoa. Splinty @Splinty is a hero in some strange corners of the internet.

According to the Texas PENAL Code,

b) A person commits an offense if he:

(1) intentionally or knowingly causes the death of an individual;

(2) intends to cause serious bodily injury and commits an act clearly dangerous to human life that causes the death of an individual

I see what you're saying. And it's not like the DA would never ever overcharge to try to get a plea deal. :rolleyes:

But that's not because he's a cop, that's because that's the system. It will certainly be interesting. IMAO, it's Murder. Recklessness implies a lack of intent to do specific harm. But the things he did that violated policy were on him, and would have stopped a death from occuring.

Negligent Homicide would be appropriate for all the people that made that situation a reality.
