She will get off.When the prosecution start using old laws it proves they are out of gas. In this case, no crime by the woman was committed

She aided and abetted. They can both go to jail forever as far as I’m concerned.
I wouldn’t want to have to explain leniency for either of them to the families of the dead pedestrians.

Drinking is bad news all around.

As if a drunk person knows anything that is going on. By definition they are clueless. She probably DIDN’T realize how drunk her BF was.

Too drunk to drive but sober enough to distinguish that the boyfriend was also too drunk to drive. That is definitely a distinction hard to prove in a court of law.

I always find the phrase “behind bars” a bad choice of words when describing DUI sentences. If they hadn’t been in front of bars, they wouldn’t have been in that predicament.

Just another example that proves the the average DA has
no concern whatsoever with justice....just with his box
score and the bragging rights he can crow about to the
public at election time.

I knew a guy that received a ticket for jaywalking by the LAPD and had to go to court. The judge laughed and threw it out.

Doug, Here’s your chance for a rally great song sung to the Willie Nelson tune. Your title will be: “If you got the keys Honey. You’ll do the time!”
They’ll never get through the Cajon to ya!

I agree with the charges. If you’re too stupid not to request a designated driver, then you deserve what you get.

Two young men lost their lives and 30 years in prison won’t bring them back.

who knowingly hands over their keys

How was she to know he was too drunk?

In a free country, a crime involves intent. When the USSA was a free country, this would be called an “accident”. Or a “tragedy”.

Now, it's a chance for a prosecutor to prove how tough he is and throw more noncriminals into prison.

I feel so safe, comrade!

How was that her fault?! He’s the one who should have called a cab...or a non-drunk friend.

If I’m not mistaken they fled the scene and so therefore they’re deciding to throw the book at ‘em.
