Not sure how they can say it's a homicide unless they can prove intent unless they're trying to throw as much as possible against the guy so they can "bargain down" to manslaughter (which is unintentional homicide) so they can send the guy away for a few years.
Civil lawsuits are after the criminal suit...they're usually brought on by family members. Both end up costing a lot of money...he'll probably be out at least $100K in legal fees...
