Involuntary manslaughter usually refers to an unintentional killing that results from recklessness or criminal negligence, or from an unlawful act that is a misdemeanor or low-level felony (such as a DUI).
Involuntary manslaughter is an accidental killing that is either. 1) the result of criminal negligence or. 2) caused during the commission of either a crime or a felony that does not trigger the felony murder rule. The first type of involuntary manslaughter (caused by a negligent act) can apply even if the negligent act that caused the death was not illegal.
