I hate that these kind of people are able to hide behind loopholes placed by legal representation after they may have taken away somebodys father, daughter, brother...etc.
As for accidental manslaughter, I think contributing factors should be carefully analysed.
Oh yeah, and I think the whole "temporary insanity" thing is just another bullshit loophole for fucking cowards.

Here's some information for you Cheeba...You cannot get the death penalty for accidental manslaughter, it isn't even an option...
The death penalty is only considered where intent is proven beyond a reasonable doubt...And even then, if someone is standing over the still warm corpse, holding a blood dripping knife in his hand, saying "That's what you get Fucker", right in front of a judge and jury...The death penalty STILL won't be considered...UNLESS...There are "extenuating circumstances"...ie: The murderer has to be in the commission of at least one other crime at the time of the murder, to even be considered for the death penalty...Such as...Killing more than one person...Committing acts of rape, robbery, burglary, arson, terrorism, etcetera...during the commission of the murder...So, no need to worry about the poor, unfortunate, accidental manslaughterer...
The only people considered for the death penalty are those who MORE than deserve it...Feel better now?:)
