| An unborn child was killed in a hit-an-run accident and the defendant will not be charged for manslaughter or murder. Thoughts?

| Depends on intent. If you accidentally kill someone pregnant it really shouldn't be counted as 2 cases of manslaughter.
If you kill someone on purpose and they end up being pregnant, double homicide. In cases of hit and run I don't know if it would count, since it wasn't intentional and just the fact that he ran after it (making it a hit and run) doesn't change that. Just means he panicked and left the scene of the crime, but that's already a separate crime and doesn't affect the injuries dealt out. I think.
I can see why the abortion debate would follow this a bit. It would involve pro-choicers admitting the fetus is a living human being, and pro-lifers could use it to point out any hypocrisy from the choicers. To me it comes down on if the mother wants the child or not. Abortion's fine, killing someone's baby is murder. | |

| How do you accidently kill someone? "Sorry about running your pregnant wife over, it was an accident. I hope I dont get charged with double homocide considering the circumstances." | |

| Maybe I misunderstood?
Which part seems odd? It's possible I made a weird error in typing. | |

| I was referring to the unborn child itself being killed with no murder charges, not the mother with the child being killed with her. | |

| Yeah, halfway through my 2nd paragraph, and my 3rd paragraph, I talk about the story you linked to.
It's possible I was thinking too much before I decided to post and tried to reason it out in my head and came out with that rather than anything related to your link. | |

| I think it's definitely manslaughter.... You might have slightly reduced penalties.... but FFS, unless she was on her way to the abortion clinic you just killed someone. | |
