Seriously, what's the difference between Penny, Zimmerman and Rittenhouse?

79. Not all deaths require prison

For example if some attempts to steal your bag resulting in a tussle. You push them back hard, they fall backwards, and crack their skull on the sidewalk. Should you go to prison for it?

You see someone involved in a serious car accident and is unconscious. You try to help them but you messed something up and they die. Example you lie them on their back where they choke on blood and suffocate instead of lying them on their side per your CPR training. Should you go to prison?

Penny appeared to have good intentions to help protect others in a situation we may may one day see ourselves in. If you punish people like this, then no one will help others whether it's from criminals, CPR, accidents, etc.

And Neely was the cause of the trouble in the first place and people were afraid from past incidents. He had drugs in his system. I believe the autopsy didn't indicate any injuries around the neck which a choke would cause. It's possible Neely's medical condition combined with the drugs and the struggle resulted in his death.
