Manslaughter and illegal in the same sentence can cause some contradictions. Manslaughter, it should be noted, is a mitigated form of murder.

So it is wrong to ask if it is illegal in Australia when each state has laws that vary. But yes manslaughter does suggest that there is some culpable wrong that warrants punishment and is therefore illegal.
