    I know right. The logic seems to be “well he didn’t get charged for it so I shouldn’t be either”. Yeah, but keeping weapons safe was your job, not his.

      The case was dismissed because of misconduct by the police and prosecutors. It has nothing to do with being charged, he was charged. She’s saying the same thing happened in her case, so if his case was dismissed so should her conviction. So yeah, if the same misconduct happened, then it should obviously be overturned too.

      And make no mistake about it, if you accidentally caused the death of someone, you would be looking for every opportunity to have the case dismissed too.

          Negligence and accidental are not mutually exclusive. Unless youre arguing that she intentionally had this person killed, my point still stands.
