Anybody can be sued for wrongful death. Many people are sued for wrongful death even if they have no culpability in the event. It all depends on the desire of the family of the person who died.
Whether the claim will be successful is an entirely different question. But the family of the decedent will potentially look for any sources of recovery and try to prove at least some fault on that person's behalf.
