The alleged drunk driver who fatally plowed down NHL star Johnny Gaudreau and his younger brother in southern New Jersey Thursday night appeared to sigh with exasperation when he learned he would be in jail through next week.
Sean Higgins, 43, was arraigned on two counts of second degree vehicle manslaughter by the Salem County Court at 1 p.m. Friday.
Judge Michael J. Silvanio ordered Higgins to be held until his detention hearing next Thursday, September 5.

Another week? Try 10 to 20 years at least.
What a prick.
He should have claimed to be a transexual-migrant pressed by systematic racism for 1000 years. They’d have let him go.
Give him to the family.
Issue them drills, sledgehammers, propane torches, pinking shears and earplugs.
He’s going to have a long stint in stony lonesome he’ll long for jail then
This is the first I have heard of this. How sad.
This is why I never bicycle on a public road. Bike paths are bad enough.
He needs to be run over with his own jeep to see what it feels like. Then he can sigh and shed some crocadeath tears. Bastard.
Given the propensity for violence possessed by many hockey players, he might be safer in jail.
A drunk driver?
Wait, wasn’t Tampon Tim arrested for drunk driving? Admittedly, he didn’t kill anyone, but did he pay any penalty for his act?
I guess not.
From another thread:
“The SUV in front of Higgins moved to the middle of the roadway, splitting the north and south lanes...”
That guy is 100% culpable as well...
Someone I loved had a serious drinking problem which he struggled with for years. But he made sure that he didn’t drive when he had been drinking. This person looks like he has been drinking heavily for over a decade. I pray that this leads to his recovery from addiction. And I also pray for the families of these two precious brothers. So sad.
Hang him high. Drunk-driving manslaughters should be murder 1.
I am a civil engineer by trade, and this tragic incident illustrates the single biggest reason why I will never sign off on a transportation plan or street design that accommodates bicyclists and motor vehicles on the same roadway.
Count me in that. I quit riding my motorcycle for the same reason and I had ridden for years and years and years.
Too many a*shole drivers out there for me. Now I ride around in a ‘05 F350 V8 turbo-diesel..I feel much safer.
Well there goes his Labor Day weekend BBQ ..../s
The perp is probably a registered Dem who thought “OK I vote the right way so I will be let go” take this scum bag and hang him from the tallest tree..he obviously has ZERO remorse for what he did
The drunken lout claimed that the SUV in front of him moved to the middle of the roadway to block him from passing.
The SUV in front had moved to the middle of the roadway to avoid striking the two cyclists in the right lane.
