Kevin, I normally do not disagree with you but I will here.
You being a lawyer and me being an ex cop there is a difference.
Unless this guy planned to kill him before the fight, that is first degree. If it happened during a fight with out fore thought it would be manslaughter.
It would be up to the prosecutor to prove first degree. Defense of course would fight that and get it thrown out.
