It's too late to get just a charge of assault now? and is manslaughter now 'disproved'? But the attack looked totally unprovoked. There's no justice if the individual who was responsible for it just gets let off. And what does it say about the police service in general, it effectively condones what he did. Maybe he didn't expect the man to die. But that's pretty much irrelevant if it was as a direct result of what he did? Does this all hinge on the fact that the evidence about the autopsy was bodged?
