involuntary manslaughter ?

Ummm, when you beat a person without mercy, until he dies a few days later, this seems like “Voluntary” manslaughter. That is, unless you had a gun to your head and were forced to participate in the beating.

If I were a juror, I’d vote for Premeditated Murder

Let me rephrase. “... that is, unless you’re a cop, and then you get to say the unarmed 4 year old girl made a ‘threatening move’ to her waist band, so I shot her 24 times with my Remington 12 gauge.”

And then you walk.
