I didnt see NEGLIGENT HOMICIDE listed, but this was:I'm not a legal scholar, and I sure didn't stay in a Holiday Inn last night either! But could negligent homicide be applied?
*******************************
30-2-5. Excusable homicide.
Homicide is excusable in the following cases:
A. when committed by accident or misfortune in doing any lawful act, by lawful means, with usual and ordinary caution and without any unlawful intent; or
B. when committed by accident or misfortune in the heat of passion, upon any sudden and sufficient provocation, or upon a sudden combat, if no undue advantage is taken, nor any dangerous weapon used and the killing is not done in a cruel or unusual manner.

30-2-8. When homicide is excusable or justifiable defendant to be acquitted.
Whenever any person is prosecuted for a homicide, and upon his trial the killing shall be found to have been excusable or justifiable, the jury shall find such person not guilty and he shall be discharged.

I think the widely varied practices in the movie industry regarding terms and handling of "hot" guns and "cold" gums etc would make it exceedingly difficult for a prosecutor to prove a case beyond a reasonable doubt.
My non-lawyer opinion of course...
