I wonder why this is only manslaughter. It seems like a lynching. It's not like they accidentally shot them. Or were defending themselves.

I speculate that it is because they were not targeting any particular individual, just firing shots indiscriminately where they thought the migrants were hiding.

Edit: Hey! I did not charge the people with manslaughter, the DA did. I am just putting forth a possible reason why, in answer to the question.

Maybe, but if someone did that in a mall, or a school, or a parade, do you think it would still be manslaughter?

Somehow, statistics are never mentioned in the far-right screeds in TX.

Headline makes it sound like he lost a sibling at some point.

Yeah, I was having to do a double take on the title. The fact that they have a sibling doesn't add anything to the title as written.

Ramon Antonio Vargas needs to go back to journalism school. That title needs some grammatical work

What's the grammatical problem with it?

The fact that the subject is a brother adds nothing to the title as written.

I don't know, I got right away that it was the former warden's brother who was also involved.

Authors rarely write the headlines; that’s an editors job
