Intoxication Manslaughter

Intoxication manslaughter is a second-degree felony charge, closely related to vehicular manslaughter, although it is not necessary for one to be intoxicated to commit vehicular manslaughter. The punishment for killing someone while driving drunk (also known as DWI manslaughter) is two to 10 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $10,000.

Of course, it is not necessary to be driving drunk to kill another person while intoxicated. However, if you drank too much and killed someone in a fight, it is not considered intoxication manslaughter, but another form of manslaughter.
