Firemen or police getting killed during a crime then of course they can charge the guy with their deaths. Same as if the guy caused a wreck while in his high speed chase or killed an innocent bystander.

I however don't think charges will stick on the deaths of people in helicopters trying to get the latest scoop on a story. The News guys put their own lives in danger when they decided to involve themselves in a high speed pursuit.

That's like trying to say it's the US military's fault a reporter gets killed in baghdad.
