he killed a girl (by driving drunk) in 1988 and was still allowed to continue to expose the public to his behavior. the judiciary should not be able to sleep at night.
I agree, and chances are his liver will pack it in well before his 25 year required term is up. He’s been caught 11 times; how many other times did he binge, drive, and get away with it, one wonders?
This shows how sad the laws are where a person who kills a girl negligently (regardless of the method) is let out of jail and a person who is pulled over coming from dinner with a few drinks for a busted tail light is taken to the woodshed having harmed no one. Thousands of people find themselves in each situation each year. We need tougher consequences when someone is killed and less of the neoprohibitionism that just puts money in the lawyers,cops, and judges pockets.
Let’s see: I give him about 3 to 4 years to work the alcohol out of his system. Then, when he finally has complete clarity, he’ll get his GED, followed by his law degree (tax payor dime, of course, along with the 3 squares a day). After graduation, he’ll file numerous lawsuits seeking billions from law enforcement, liquor industry, auto industry and mom & dad for causing his predicament…… very sad, indeed.
If he has a DUI bonus card with 11 punches he is no doubt in line for some really neat prizes/gifts! Isn’t our system of laws and justice the most wonderful there ever was?
The headline states he had 11 DUIs. The article ends up showing that this was his 11th alcohol-related offense. He had 8 prior DUIs, plus the criminal endangerment and vehicular homicide.
Regardless of the poor wording, how is this guy getting into a vehicle without a breathalizer ignition lock? He clearly can’t stop himself, so why were more people put at risk due to his illness?

He must have been diagnosed with Affluenza that time.

I guess he’ll have 25 years to sober up. It’s a shame it took all this.

Lock him in a room and give him an endless supply of booze.
