Involuntary manslaughter, or better

Day after day, Glenn Kirschner goes there! Jaw-dropping. If this were sports, it would be one of the greatest endurance feats of all time.

Trump’s conduct easily satisfies all 3 elements of involuntary manslaughter. In fact, his gross negligence is beginning to look more like conduct evincing a “conscious disregard of an extreme risk of death/serious bodily injury = the standard for depraved heart/2nd degree murder.

Whereas involuntary manslaughter involves gross negligence which creates an extreme risk to life, 2nd degree murder involves EITHER an intent to kill another OR an intent to inflict serious bodily injury OR a conscious disregard that one’s conduct creates a grave risk to others.
