Maybe. Depends on the facts (what you provided are not exactly facts, just a fact) and the claim for liability. Questions/issues include: 1. Did you build the wall? Were you negligent in building the wall? Did you breach some professional/industry standard? 2. Did you intend to knock the wall down? Were you negligent in knocking the wall down? Did you know or should you have known if you lean against the wall it will fall? There are an infinite number of facts one could make up that might change the claim and outcome of liability (also note This is generally about civil liability, but it could possibly extend to criminal liability when talking about death). There is a pretty famous liability case all Law school students come across early in their torts class, as I recall a driver’s tire blew and he lost control of the vehicle and killed someone. Are the liable? Well come to find out that yes, all drivers have a duty to other drivers to make sure their vehicle is safe for the road and in this case a “reasonable person” (another legal term of art) would have known it was not safe to drive on bald tires and the driver was negligent not maintaining their vehicle safety which was the proximate cause of the death.
