A few days after the cosmic miscarriage of justice in the Kate Steinle case, The New York Times published this account of an accidental shooting death:

A hunter accused of fatally shooting his neighbor after mistaking her for a deer was arraigned on a charge of second-degree manslaughter on Thursday in a western New York court.

The hunter, Thomas B. Jadlowski, 34, was also charged with hunting after legal hours in the Nov. 22 death of Rosemary Billquist. Ms. Billquist, 43, had been walking her dogs in a field near her home when she was struck in the hip by a bullet fired by Mr. Jadlowski, officials said.

In announcing the charges, which carry a potential prison sentence of five to 15 years, the authorities in Chautauqua County — about 65 miles southwest of Buffalo — reiterated that they had no reason to believe that Mr. Jadlowski had intended to harm Ms. Billquist.

Jadlowski has pleaded not guilty. Does anyone doubt that Jadlowski will either cut a deal or be convicted, and most likely, spend some time prison?

He won’t benefit from the factors (hatred of Trump, love of illegals) that produced these headlines:
