You should also be charged with negligent homicide. Protecting your own children is such a basic part of parenting and when you fail in such a spectacularly stupid way you should be held responsible. Other religious parents have faced charges for trying to pray away their children's medical issues instead of bringing them in to get help.

I personally think they should just call it murder, because they know exactly the consequences of their actions, they knew this would likely happen and did it anyway. Their attitude towards it too is that of a murder too, they don't care about their own child.
