The court said there was enough evidence for the jury to conclude that Daniel Beckwitt's actions were the actual and legal cause of Askia Khafra's death.
The Maryland Court of Appeals on Friday upheld a manslaughter conviction for Daniel Beckwitt in a tunnel digger's fiery death.
Beckwitt, 30, is a millionaire stock trader who was initially convicted of second-degree depraved heart murder and involuntary manslaughter in April 2019 for the death of Askia Khafra, 21, according to the opinion. He was sentenced to nine years in prison. The Court of Appeals said in June 2021 that they would consider both appeals, Bethesda Magazine reported.
While what Beckett directed Khafra to do while working demonstrated"reckless disregard for human life," it wasn't at the level of conduct to ascertain it was the cause of death, Watts wrote.
