Are you aware that that is what one is charged with if crash into someone while driving drunk and kill that person?
Legal Definition of Manslaughter
So if someone went to party while in college, got drunk, tried to drive home anyway, and ended up in a crash which killed someone, then is convicted of manslaughter and serves his time, you are saying that should disqualify this individual from officiating HS sports?
What does that have to do being around kids?
Sorry, Padgett, but you are off the mark with that example. Now had you written
murder, which "requires malicious intent," then I would be with you.
