An example of a death resulting from a stray civie bullet without any charges being filed against the shooter...
March, 1995... in Franklin Township, NJ (yep, I said NJ of all places), Brenda Wolf was fatally shot by a stray bullet from her husband's gun when he attempted to stop a robbery at Jeffrey Scott Fine Jewelry. Since the shooting was justifiable, her husband wasn't charged with a crime... and in fact the ones who robbed the place were charged with felony murder for Brenda Wolf's death.
