I've been on a rant about this case since it happened. A cop fired 41 shots into the vehicle of an unarmed man after a chase.
But manslaughter? That's the "reckless" killing of another individual. In its simplest terms, it means that a person didn't intend to kill another (that's murder) but instead killed another by doing something so stupid when he knew there was a risk of that death occurring but made a decision to disregard that risk and continue on with his stupidity. Example: Driving through a school zone at 90 mph in a school zone.
I'm pretty sure the officer meant to kill the guy.
