There are four types of manslaughter:

1. Voluntary – when someone voluntarily commits an act that results in death, this means they meant to cause serious bodily injury or knew it was practically certain to result in death.
2. Involuntary – when someone commits an unlawful act that does not amount to a felony and is unintentionally the cause of death, this means they did not intend to kill someone.
3. Criminally negligent – when someone fails to perceive a substantial and unjustifiable risk in their actions, resulting in death, this means they should have been aware of the risk but failed to act.
4. Vehicular – when someone causes the death of another while driving a motor vehicle
