Yes, I know, and I don't know why he wasn't found guilty of it. That's why I want to know how the jury was directed. I can see how they might have cleared him of voluntary manslaughter, but I don't understand why he'd also be clear of involuntary manslaughter. But I don't know all the facts of the case.

But manslaughter was the backup option, surely.
From the articles it looks like he got into an altercation with the victim in the chicken shop, then him and his mates followed the victim out of the shop and into an alleyway. Then he beat him to death with a bike chain.
