92. They called a British nanny a murderer because she said she "popped the baby on the couch"

The police interpreted it as "dropped the baby on the couch"

This was in the USA and she was convicted of murder..........even with a professional opinion that the baby had got his injury way before the nanny was working there.......

And Howard is not even charged......??????

Scott Peterson was convicted on 'circumstances alone' no real evidence......

And Howard is not even charged ????

US law ........What a friggin joke !!!!!!

98. I'll believe that Anna's death was accidental, but I won't buy for a second thats Daniel's was.

99. Why do people act like this let's Howie off the hook? He was stuck to her side for years and knew exactly what was going on. He knew she was on this deadly amount of drugs and even videotaped her stoned. He helped her with this mess she was in with the paternity.

He knew everything and was the only one who has been with her for years and years.

She was a complete mess and he was right there with her and helping her stay a mess.

There is nothing about this that makes him look good.

100. THAT LAPTOP WAS A "PLANT" PUT THERE BY HOWARD. GO FIND THE REAL ONE YOU IDIOTS!

Posted at 11:05AM on Mar 26th 2007 by Stern is a murderer

101. As a result of this outcome, all drug dealers should not be prosecuted. This just opened the door for any defense attorney to use in a criminal trial. HKScumbag was her dealer and everyone knew it.
ANS was to incapacitated to take her own drugs with a fever of 105. Someone gave them to her.
Open your eyes Perper. You should know this. I hope the Bahamas does not make the same mistake and this Scum walks yet again.
I guess ANS got exactly what she wanted, which was to be like Marilyn Monroe. Unfortunately for her, she died the same suspicious death as Marilyn.
No one really knew if she died of an accidental overdose, suicide or was she Murdered!
Sorry Anna, the American Justice System screwed you in the end.

105. COME ON PEOPLE, YOU MEAN TO TELL ME MOE, HKS AND THE NURSE DIDNT KNOW THAT THE COMBO OF DRUGS COULD KILL HER. HELL YA THEY DID AND THEY DID NOTHING , NOTHING PEOPLE THAT MAKES THEM CRIMINALLY NEGLIGENCE. READ FOLLOWING

Involuntary manslaughter, sometimes called criminally negligent homicide in the United States or culpable homicide in Scotland, occurs where there is no intention to kill or cause serious injury but death is due to recklessness or criminal negligence.


[edit] Criminal negligence
Negligence consists of conduct by an individual which is not reasonable -- that is, the individual did not act with the care and caution of a reasonable person in similar circumstances. This "reasonable person" is fictitious, of course, but reflects the standard of conduct which society wishes to impose. Violation of this standard may lead to civil liability for the consequences of the negligent behavior.

Negligence rises to the level of criminal negligence where the conduct reaches a higher degree of carelessness or inattention, perhaps to the point of indifference.


[edit] Recklessness
Recklessness or willful blindness is defined as a wanton disregard for the known dangers of a particular situation. An example of this would be throwing a brick off a bridge onto vehicular traffic below. There exists no intent to kill, consequently a resulting death may not be considered murder. However, the conduct is probably reckless, sometimes used interchangeably with criminally negligent, which may subject him to prosecution for involuntary manslaughter: the individual was aware of the risk of danger to others and willfuly disregarded it.

In many jurisdictions, such as in California, if the unintentional conduct amounts to such gross negligence as to amount to a willful or depraved indifference to human life, the mens rea may be considered to constitute malice. In such a case, the offense may be murder, often characterized as second degree murder.

In some jurisdictions, such as Victoria, recklessness is sufficient mens rea to justify a conviction for murder.
