ummmmmmm... NO!!!5 years, thats it? Cripes drive over someone if you want to murder them, thats what the court is saying here. Geezitz.
So she’ll get her Masters degree, courtesy of the taxpayer?
Times have changed a bit since the 1980s when my brother and three of his buddies were pushing their car on the side of the road on a snowy night and a young drunk woman driver plowed into them, seriously injuring every single one of them; my brother lost a leg, the trauma sending him into 20 years of spiraling drug abuse (he’s doing great now).
The young woman drunk driver had had two previous drunk driving crashes with little repercussion except a raise in her insurance rates.
Locked away are the bad, the mad, and the sad.
Only five years for killing someone? When you drink and drive it ought to be malice murder
No one forced her to drink. That was her decision. It was also her decision to get behind the wheel while drunk.
ummmmmmm... NO!!!If she’s genuinely remorseful and will genuinely change her ways, I’ll forgive her, but my forgiveness isn’t the forgiveness that she needs. And, she still has to serve her prison term. Forgiveness and rendering unto Caesar as far as court sentencing are two entirely different things.
Five years for killing someone’s loved one? A 25 year minimum sentence should be the national standard. Every child over six in America knows it is against the law to drive drunk, so ignorance is no excuse.
