I believe he intended to hit him, hurt him, and embarrass him. I don't believe it even occurred to him that it might kill the man. The punch was intentional, the death was not.

Aren't there different charges for an intentional killing and an accidental one? If so, we'll see what he is charged and convicted of.

Drunk drivers don't have the intent to kill someone either but they chose to drive drunk just as he chose to punch the old man. Both deserve at least involuntary manslaughter with prison time. Glad it's making the national news so this piece of Cr_ _ doesn't get a slap on the hand.
