Just to be clear, I'm not defending her. I do believe, however, that she was "over charged" (and I don't mean for a meal...). She is absolutely guilty of some level of criminal negligence. Just not manslaughter. She did not point the gun at a living human being, she did not cock the hammer, she did not pull the trigger.

Her incompetence was certainly a big component in a very tragic outcome. My point this entire time has been that if they were all following "real gun" safety protocols, that even her criminal level of incompetence would not have resulted in a death.

Again, "layered" safety when dealing with real guns. These idiots (and she wasn't the only one) didn't even recognize, nor heed, the first layer. The fact that there was no second, third, or fourth layer allowed what could have been no more than an embarrassing level of incompetence turn into a fatal level of incompetence.
