You make a valid point.

We already have similar things going on in the world, so maybe we can look at that first. Let's say a car mechanic fixes a car, but does it wrong. The car leaves, the next day it causes an accident due to whatever the mechanic did wrong. What is the mechanic's responsibility in this case? 100%? 0%?

Should that person go to jail for manslaughter? I don't know of instances where that happened, but it might have.
