Type of homicide (12)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

manslaughter

'type of homicide' is the definition.
(I know that manslaughter is a type of homicide)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for manslaughter that I've seen before include "Crime of unpremeditated killing" , "Crime of killing, short of murder" , "Killing without malice" , "Unlawful killing" , "Homicide without malice aforethought" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
