On September 17, 2011, his wife was walking with Olivia in a crosswalk at Lenora Park in Snellville when Glass slammed into her and Olivia's stroller.

"She came at us so hard and so fast out of nowhere, in reverse, In the wrong lane," Hellwig said. "She hit us once in reverse the first time, and if that's not enough kept driving, drove forward, and drove backwards again." "Her lawyer issued an apology, but there was nothing from her," Hellwig said. "I didn't feel any real remorse from her in court."

Why is this not murder?
The first hit was negligent but the driving over the child the second time was deliberate.
Just not getting this lack of punishment.

I listened to the interview. This sentence is despicable in failing to match the time with teh crime. And, so is the woman who killed the baby. She should apologize and serve a real sentence for vehicular death. It was her negligence that caused it. This is no punishment at all. I’d sue the court, the parks, everyone in sight, including the driver.

two years of probation?

“Honey, we’re gonna watch you for the next 2 years to make sure you don’t speed-bump any more babies ...if not your record is clear...OK?”

“”Glass received 30 days in jail and two years of probation.”

I’d say a jail sentence around 365 times longer would have been a good minimum.

The baby’s family deserves plenty of prayer...sad that it’s the only recourse for a lot of things these days!

“Why is this not murder?”

Just look at the picture of the murderer. Gwinnett County is now a white minority population. It is, no doubt, another justice for trayvon episode.
