Item: Post Falls woman faces vehicular homicide charge as a result of improperly installed car seat/Kootenai MPO

More Info: Spokane County prosecutors charged a Post Falls woman with vehicular homicide Tuesday in the death of her infant daughter, who was severely injured by a car’s airbag while riding in a rear-facing car seat in Spokane. If convicted, it could be the first time in Washington a parent has been held accountable for the death of a child stemming from an improperly installed car seat, prosecutors and police say.

Question: Is this an excessive charge by the Spokane County prosecutors against a grieving mother?
