[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 851188, member: 60724"] Brandon said: Okay, Brandon let me try to understand your point. So if someone does something illegal, like street racing, and during that event someone gets killed, but not due to a direct cause (as you say a bump or a hit to cause the other to have an accident) then you don't think that first party should be liable for manslaughter? Is that what you are saying? What about another example: [b]Example:[/b] Let's say a guy goes in to rob a liquor store. He threatens the liquor store owner and demands money. The liquour store owner due to stress dies of a massive heart attack on the spot. To me, that's a very similar example and for that example I would want to have the book thrown at the robber. Charge him with manslaughter. If you agree with that, then it is the same thing. Though the intent in racing wasn't to kill anyone, you can't dispute the fact that an illegal activity was performed and if not for the illegal activity the person killed would most likely still be alive.
