Subsequently, the district attorney charges Ray with manslaughter (causing a death through recklessness) in the deaths of Bob and Carl. Ray may: A) not be convicted of any form of criminal homicide because Bob was responsible for his own death and Carl's own negligence produced Carl's death. B) be convicted of manslaughter under the law of parties even though Bob's conduct caused the deaths. C) not be convicted of any form of criminal homicide because Bob, not Ray, caused the deaths.
