There were varying degrees of guilt when killing someone in Roman law already. Suggesting that involuntary manslaughter was 'invented' because of trains is preposterous. You might be thinking of corporate manslaughter but that's an entirely different matter. You also seem to suggest that people were killed in droves because of trains not using a horn, and that the only was that was stopped was by introducing some new form of manslaughter. I hope you see for yourself how that falls under the category of 'extraordinary claims', which as we know requires extraordinary evidence.
- belorn 10y agoSince you are talking about proofs, will you now provide evidence that it was criminal in roman law to unintentionally cause someones death? They had mines and work accidents, so it should be easy for you to find. I mean, I only recited what I heard from a professor of law and legal history, but I am sure that as a random person on the INTERNET as yourself has more validity. That extraordinary evidence you provided is all I needed.
