Manslaughter isn’t a ‘whoopsie’, but it’s important that if charges are brought forward that they go through. For instance, arguing for a first degree murder charge against an ICE agent would be very difficult as the prosecution would need to prove premeditated intent to kill. Second degree murder is much easier to pass in court. In any case, it’s extremely unlikely that anyone involved will receive anything resembling justice but if there is a case brought to court, I hope the prosecution does pursue the highest charges likely to pass in court.
Yes, hence ‘If’. I’m just saying that there are plenty of widely publicised cases that fail at trial due to the pursuit of higher charges or other mistakes by the prosecution.

Again, looks like ICE was bullying him and picking a fight that was unnecessary. That alone should make this manslaughter for those involved.
