OP, seriously, you need to see a therapist. No, there is no way to write this language into your support agreement. If he is negligent and your child is killed, he could face criminal negligence charges.
If you have examples of serious risk of endangerment, you can call Child Protective Services or petition the court to allow him to have only supervised visitation. But the two examples you cite are not at all at the level of risk that an agency will entertain.
There are more examples. He's already had 1 child. Accidentally die. So again I ask anything?
Do you think he killed the child so he wouldn't have to pay child support? Was he sad that the child died?
Otherwise, I don't see how your reasoning will work. I understand that it must be scary to send your child off for visitation with someone you don't trust, but what you're implying here goes beyond "careless".
Yes. No to the second question. Ambivalent at the death. Still is. But bought a new car not soon after.

He had one child die in an accidental drowning which must have destroyed both him and his marriage with this other woman, and you are trying to use it against him? Accidental drownings happen all the time, to all kinds of people and it is pretty easy to determine if it was caused by flat out neglect rather than an accident. Obviously since he is not in jail and has unsupervised parenting time with your kid, he was not responsible for his other child's death.
If you really believe he is in danger then you can always try to go to court to modify the order, but based on what you are saying here you have no grounds to modify anything.

If so, then he has a record of some kind (a criminal record, or CPS finding of neglect) which should be accounted for in your custody arrangements.
If not, then it wasn't his fault. shit happens. Kids get in accidents. you can't stop that with legal documents.
If not and you think he actually was responsible, you are sounding a bit crazy. What does the kid's mother think?
