Given the wording of the statute, this would be almost impossible to prove...

...in any other time in history.

She confused him with a deer? (I don’t see anything in that statute which would be easy to prove.)

609.205 MANSLAUGHTER IN THE SECOND DEGREE.

A person who causes the death of another by any of the following means is guilty of manslaughter in the second degree and may be sentenced to imprisonment for not more than ten years or to payment of a fine of not more than $20,000, or both: (1) by the person's culpable negligence whereby the person creates an unreasonable risk, and consciously takes chances of causing death or great bodily harm to another; or(2) by shooting another with a firearm or other dangerous weapon as a result of negligently believing the other to be a deer or other animal; or

(3) by setting a spring gun, pit fall, deadfall, snare, or other like dangerous weapon or device; or

(4) by negligently or intentionally permitting any animal, known by the person to have vicious propensities or to have caused great or substantial bodily harm in the past, to run uncontrolled off the owner's premises, or negligently failing to keep it properly confined; or

(5) by committing or attempting to commit a violation of section 609.378 (neglect or endangerment of a child), and murder in the first, second, or third degree is not committed thereby.

If proven by a preponderance of the evidence, it shall be an affirmative defense to criminal liability under clause (4) that the victim provoked the animal to cause the victim's death.

They won't be able to demonstrate that the officer 'and consciously takes chances of causing death or great bodily harm to another'. She meant to tase the guy and made a mistake. While incompetent, it doesn't reach the threshold level of purposeful chance-taking.

When Ashli was gunned down in the Capitol, she got zero consideration.

She’s not a criminal with a warrant for using a gun in a crime against a woman.

[PGR88]

Second degree murder is: “the criminal act of killing another person with intent, but without pre-meditation during assault in which death of the victim was a distinct possibility.”

That’s what they will go with?

Why would anyone, especially a white person, work as a cop in a city run by leftist, race-baiting politicians? The politicians you serve have declared you an enemy, and have put a big political target on your back.

And If you think your pension will be there for you in 20 years - good luck with that.

They are not out to prove anything. This is political. She is White. He is/was Black and a protect above the Law species. There is a war against Whites that the Whites are in denial. And the Constitution went AWOL when the Democrat Party, aided and abetted by the Republican Party blatantly, in your face stole the 2020 election and no one cared.

And the police office who killed Ashley Babbitt will face no charges. Interesting juxtaposition.

[pierrem15]

The case seems very similar to where someone accidentally shoots someone else and then claims they thought the gun was empty.

Unfortunately for her, she had a reasonable duty to be sure she had the taser in her hand.

I would also point out that a citizen who is not a police officer would also be charged with manslaughter (reckless homicide) in a case like this.

[skinndogNN]

Anybody know the sentence range would be?

I actually think she’s way more guilty than the Chauvin guy.
