Hypothetically, you’re a bridge inspector.
Someone reports a bridge in your area has problems and should be looked at.
It’s part of your job to inspect bridges that have reports filed.
You go “look at” the bridge but don’t inspect because “99% of reports are fake”.
The bridge collapses killing someone.

Did you cause the death?
No. You failed to prevent it.
