Controversial headline changes and lack of evidence in Jewish protester's death case

Authorities in California reviewed 600 pieces of evidence and interviewed 60 witnesses before charging a college professor with involuntary manslaughter and battery causing serious bodily injury in the death of a Jewish protester during a pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian rally. The investigation found no evidence of intent to commit a slaying or a hate crime, but investigators are still looking into the possibility. The charges include special allegations that make the suspect eligible for prison under California's Three Strikes Law. The victim died after a physical altercation at the rally, and the autopsy determined the cause of death to be a blunt force head injury.
