Wait, you are wrong here.
Automobiles can kill people, of course by accident and with no
intention.
But a radar is specifically used for guiding the plane which is
designed to drop bombs.
You are twisting the two together.
Your story also is flawed. Your neighbor was negligent that led to
horse and driver got killed. He might not be the direct murderer, but
he was certainly responsible and would have been sued. In some
country, a negligent act can be criminal.
If you don't buy this argument, what about if you are the driver?
