Interesting that they didn't mention her name.

 

It's actually very strange. She's been sentenced, right? Her nationality isn't mentioned either, though it is assumed she's Thai. But the photo could possibly suggest she's speaking to an interpreter? And why hide her face? Weird.

So, if you just suddenly decide to kill someone and then instantly do it, it's manslaughter?  That doesn't sound right.  Generally, manslaughter means the death was unintentional or it was intentional with some sort of mitigating circumstances.

 

Do you have a link that supports your claim?

So  yes,  I got that wrong. Manslaughter can of course include accidental killing but also unplanned or as you put it, unintentional killing.

 

I was responding to someone who seemed to think that manslaughter could only mean accidental killing.

 

What I should have said is that manslaughter isn't only accidental killing, it can also be unintentional/unplanned killing (or as you say, intentional killing with mitigating circumstances).
