Goofs

A person convicted of manslaughter (either degree) cannot be given a sentence of probation. Manslaughter in the second degree is a violent class C felony and carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 3-1/2 years in prison. Manslaughter in the first degree (which is what the defendant is guilty of) is a violent class B felony and carries a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in prison. The only violent felony class that can get probation as a sentence are class E felonies and the only homicide charge that is a violent class E felony is criminally negligent homicide, which clearly does not apply in this case.
