You don't understand the definition of manslaughter and how it differs from a fatal accident. I refuted all that by explaining the issues several times, but you obviously do not care about any of that as you ignored it all then repeated yourself.

She was pissed at the bitch, her father and almost everyone else at that party, her semblance triggered and out popped Piglet ready to utterly wreck that woman's shit. If Ironwood hadn't been involved it would have been a very violent end for that woman and Weiss would have without a doubt have been convicted. Hell Ironwood stated himself firing squads are the go to for insubordination, though he may have been exaggerating due to Qrow being well Qrow. It would be easier to get off people's shoddy legal analysis if they weren't trying to use that to rationalize parental abuse. The fact that you and others don't understand the difference between manslaughter and an innnocent accident is not a big deal on its own (unless you are suggesting she would have been convicted regardless of whether it was really manslaughter). However, the takeaway of that misguided belief is then that Jacques was right and justified in what he did with Weiss deserving everything she got. For me it is rather troubling that people would so readily side with Jacques against Weiss.
