I'm not a lawyer.
But, I do have a family member (now deceased) then went to jail for manslaughter.
Crime of passion thing, but his actions were such that he WAS intending to do bodily harm. Maybe the prosecutor couldn't prove the intent was to cause grevious harm or something.
Despite the death involved, he was NOT considered a high risk and did his time in a minimum security prison. I do know he was highly contrite (sincerely so). Maybe all that factored in.
