Did he get done for manslaughter?  How did they prove he caused their death?

He knowingly picked up a load of people who were in a very dangerous situation.

Surprised he got done for manslaughter though unless the prosecution clearly proved he caused their death.

Manslaughter can cover a whole spectrum of possibilities. He intentionally committed an illegal act that could reasonably be assumed to put someone in harm's way.

He was part of a gang that locked them up in a lorry with no air supply. They suffocated to death. Pretty easy in the end to prove he caused their death.

He demanded the lorry be full with 39, not just 5 or 6 immigrants. They had no chance of surviving in those temperatures and the crowd of people inside.

Well folks, I made a trip to Vietnam to meet some of the families who lost loved ones in this tragedy.

It was an emotional journey, but well worth it in order to show them some love and solidarity from home.
