Should man be charged with murder after wife dies

I'm sorry but it is a silly question from a legal perspective. Murder is a legal term

Silly means it's basically impossible, but I'd say it's very possible. There's no additional info in this hypothetical, so if you can find anything halfway reasonable to make it true, then it's no longer silly.

So unless you can prove that he knocked her up for malicious intention to kill her, it's not 1st degree murder.

Right, so if someone knew she had a condition which made pregnancy dangerous and was against termination, then it's pretty easy. Certainly wouldn't be the first time someone poked a hole in a rubber.

Impossible since he did impregnate a woman in advance, so it wasn't a spur of the moment thing.

All you have to do is see is see if there any ways to complicate pregnancy after you've gotten someone pregnant. Really, it's impossible to complicate a pregnancy? What if you put meth in her food?

Also not applicable

Sure it could be, maybe the pregnancy was fine and in an argument he drove them into a tree and that started a medical chain of events that lead to her death.

So which type of murder are you suggesting it might fall under?

Any of them.

I think charging a woman with murder for the miscarriage of her child unless she stabs the baby through her stomach or something is obviously ridiculous.

Well if you're talking about the other thread, this was a full term baby. The only difference is the physical location. If it's okay to kill things you can't see, I think we just found a mass murder's loophole!

Your meth scenario doesn't match the OP's post...like at all. She means can a man be charged with murder because a woman died as a result of childbirth. Not a tree, not meth, simply because she died coincidentally due to complications that are all known possibilities.

I say no, and your examples possibilities aren't relevant.

This is where tribalism and floating morals go too far. We want to support the killing of a full term baby because we're afraid that if we don't, it means we're a bible thumping anti-abortion hillbilly attacking women. It's exactly how we discredit our own beliefs.

Hey they built that rocket that took the other cishet white dudes to the moon.

Oh wait, that was built by literal nazis. :laughing

Which was clearly cultural appropriation of people who use extraterrestrial pronouns.

Colonizing bastards of the Moon theft!

What if we want to support it because we like tasty BBQ?

A woman dies in childbirth after 3 torturous days of labor.

Should the man that impregnated her be charged with murder/ man slaughter? Afterall, it's his actions that ultimately resulted in his wife's death?

Wow, the threads in this forum are really entertaining!

All Straight White Cismen need to be charged with the murder of the entire world, because every bad thing that ever happened is their fault, because they control everyone, everything, and no one else has any agency.

Everyone on Earth is a victim except them and if you don't believe me, you're literally Hitler.

This sounds like a lot of students at university.

It's the hypersensitive reaction to someone pointing out that a group has done something shitty in the past. If you're in that group and uber sensitive, it feels like an overwhelming attack. It gets so blown up in a person's mind that they think the person bringing it up wants you to fall to your knees and cry for an eternity while begging for forgiveness. It's fun to watch.

You make a great point here.
