If you run a red light and cause an accident that results in serious bodily injury and/or death, you will not be prosecuted, because it was an accident.
Don't mean to nitpick, but if you run a red light, you are responsible for any action that occurs as a result of that criminal act. If a collision results from the illegal action of failing to yield to a red light, you will be charged. If that includes a death, you can be charged with vehicular homicide.
