MD laws toward alleged juvenile defenders are quite lenient indeed.

Not intended, but absolutely one possible result. That's what the manslaughter charge is for. Same thing as if you were drag racing and crashed your car and killed someone. Not the expected result, but certainly one you are responsible for criminally.

How is this manslaughter? The kid fully intended to punch that unsuspecting guy's lights out and that is exactly what happened and that is exactly what killed him. How is that not murder?

Umm, yeah. It happens to professional and amateur boxer all the time.

First of all, very few people are knocked out by a single punch. And death is rarely the result, even during a boxing match that lasts 30 minutes.

Not “an expected result?” Whew! Someone didn’t go to law school!

You are not too bright. If someone is hit in the right part of the head with a good deal of force, the victim can die immediately. Pick up a damn book.

NP. Because he was operating with reckless disregard for others. It is not likely that punching a person once would result in death. Now if the person is 100 years old, maybe murder would be a possible charge.

Geez, the stupidity! People die from being punched more frequently than you think. Please just stop with the idiocy!

And some people survive being shot in the head or strangled or having their throats slashed. But in this case the man was punched in the head HARD and he died...so that is murder. Not attempted murder, but murder.

You can not argue that these boys did not "mean" to hurt that man very badly. And when you intend to hurt someone very badly and they die from their injuries you are guilty of their murder.

Just a 59 year old dad hanging out at the fair with his teenage daughter. Poor guy. So awful. So random.

The fact that it was all filmed proves that it was a premeditated attack. They should be charged appropriately. The girl who filmed it should also be charged as an accessory. I'm not a lawyer but if what happened on The Accused is actually legally sound then you could say that she actively participated in the attack by encouraging it and she should thereby also be punished for the crime to the full extent of the law.

You just dont get it, do you?

It is not likely you would survive being shot in the head. It is highly likely you will survive a single punch to the head by someone who isnt named Mike tyson.

DP. You are an utter moron. In the real world when you get knocked out you fall with tremendous force and hit your head on concrete and die.
