I had the same thought initially, but once it came to light that there had been previous investigation on the issue, I'd agree that this falls under negligence and opens the door for whatever the prosecutor sees fit.

Right, wrong, or indifferent, that kind of overreach happens already all over the place, but I see it more on the civil side of things. Attaching an absent parent's insurance and assets to a claim for free money, things like that.

I'm honestly not sure what to think about that. I can see a maze of scenarios where someone should/shouldn't be held liable, and I already have a headache. :)
