Although I have sympathy for this families pain and grief, I think LE did the right thing by charging her with manslaughter.
The baby died as a result of her actions that day. What was LE supposed to do? Even if she accidentally left him in the car, it caused his death.
Let's say someone is driving a car and "accidentally" goes thru a red light or a stop sign. If they strike another vehicle and an occupant is killed, they are responsible for that death, whether or not they say they forgot to look at the light/stop sign/texting/cell phone.
It's all very tragic, but it happens.
