Plus your insurance company says that they won't pay if you're guilty (see Littlefield) so you personally will be on the hook for a multimillion dollar wrongful death suit.
Then your lawyer says for $50k to $100K, he can get expert witnesses and you have a better than 50/50 chance of walking away with a not guilty verdict. Say you have or can get the money.
Now be honest, you would do that to your family?

With all due respect PIG, your morality sounds good in a hypothetical situation. But I think if it came down to it, the money would be flowing.
