Do you think the law quoted in post #66 should be applied to this case?
Do I think the law in post 66 should be applied in this case? Absolutely not. Has a car been specifically defined as a lethal weapon? I don’t know - I am not an attorney.
Everyone I know has at one time or another made a bad choice, including me. Sometimes bad things happen when those involved didn’t make a bad choice.
If the woman was pulled over asleep, certainly one of the officers choices was to just take her keys and let her figure out her own way to get home. Just really bad choices on the part of both parties involved. And these bad choices will have an effect on lots of other people.
No easy answers to some things.
