How did this guy not get indicted?
I can only think of 1 logical way. If - NY does not allow grand juries to choose which charges to indict upon. They can only decide on the charges that the prosecutor has asked for. And - if - the prosecutor only brought murder 1 or murder 2 charges. Then, maybe, I can get it. This would definitely be manslaughter, if not outright murder.
How is this any different than if an off-duty cop is out driving his police cruiser with his lights on going 100mph and runs over someone. He's outside of police protocol, and his actions directly caused someone's death.

A civil suit won't bring that man back, or won't obviously make up for the lack of accountability for such a clear cut case, but I hope it is pursued.

Hey I was willing to settle for negligent homicide, it didn't even have to be murder. That he didn't even get that is just mind-blowing.
He walks away.
He walks away.

Is negligent homicide another term for manslaughter?
