GeekPress reports:
Prosecutors in Alaska have filed the first-ever charge of second-degree murder because the suspect was allegedly watching a DVD while driving his vehicle instead of watching the road, which then led to his striking and killing the driver of another vehicle. The movie he is accused of watching is “Road Trip”.
The post contains a link to the newspaper article. The most plausible theory for the prosecution is that watching a DVD while driving is “knowingly engag[ing] in conduct showing extreme indifference to human life.”
