Involuntary manslaughter is a crime; a much lesser crime than murder, but still on the mens rea tier. It goes like this, I believe: there's involuntary manslaughter, which is more or less a complete accident- no intent to hurt or kill, but still viable for recklessness or negligence charges; then there's voluntary manslaughter, in which an intent to hurt or injure, sometimes frighten, the victim but not kill them was proven, which is a bit more serious; then second degree murder, which was done without premeditation "in the heat to the moment", a crime of passion; and then first degree murder, in which both a plan to murder and intent are proven.
IIRC, murder 1 and 2 (or a very near equivalent) is the only concept in the manslaughter - murder continuum that translates rather almost precisely across different cultures. All other variations are very likely to be subtly yet significantly different.

It looks guilty as gently caress. Surely it has room to hide a mans body inside it.

This is commonly known as an inquisitorial system, and (as the connotations associated with that name might imply), it wasn't exactly sunshine and rainbows in practice.

I'm seriously considering leaving nothing but a gif in response, because that bit is just... very hard to adequately respond to using words.

Those parts of the world that do not operate based on Common Law (oddly enough, despite what you may assume based on watching Hollywood movies, a majority rather than a minority of the world's law systems) often use Inquisitorial proceedings for some / all of the investigation. The current incarnation of the system has absolutely nothing to do with the Inquisition, Spanish or otherwise. (Being based in the Napoleonic Code is a fairly good hint)
