Killed someone out of gross negligence, and 3 years is to much?
Yeah, don't agree with that. A person lost their life. Not injured. DEAD.
Gross negligence like leaving something on your lawn that is clearly dangerous and then hurts someone. Maybe.
Or you're operating a vehicle unsafely at a jobsite and kill someone by accident.
But you're hired to deal with tools that are DESIGNED to be lethal.
The bar to account for safety is so much higher than typical involuntary manslaughter.
IMO, she should be getting 5+ years, and the producer (hiree) should be facing a year for putting a 26 year old in charge of such a thing.
How much experience could a 26 year old possibly obtain properly to be the one in charge of such a thing.
Apprenticing, sure. But it's negligent on the person hiring such an inexperienced person as well.
