misdemeanor? so like, murder is illegal, murdering multiple with a truck is kind of legal
There is no law and order in the US. If you want to diddle kids, just operate a Joint commission accredited troubled teen facility. There are literally zero requirements, and you can sue anyone who questions you into poverty!
You actually get rewarded for running over cyclists, one more and it would all have canceled out
He should never get his license back. What the hell. Only 6 months.
Remember people, if you wanna kill someone, make sure you’re in a car! If you’re lucky you might not even get a jail sentence!
Remember people, if you wanna kill someone, make sure you’re a rich white person in a car!
Also doesn’t hurt if the people you plow over are young, minorities, women, or - best of all - progressive activists.
Insane. My friend is serving 6 months because he fought back against his violent abusive dad one time. This guy gets 6-12 months after killing 2 and injuring 11? Wtf is this system?
Afluenza, you know. This guy probably has rich and powerful daddy and mommy.
This is good. It gives the grieving families a year to plan how to get the bastard once he’s out of jail.
for international context here: this is (one of) the hottest major city in the
countryworld; we have year round bike weather. This happens all the time unfortunately.The hottest city != Bike weather?
They meant to say “bike melting weather”
People who live here are used to the heat. I ride my bike in >40° weather all the time. People who aren’t used to the heat yet will start to ride right before sunrise when it’s 27-30°. To give you another frame of reference: I set my HVAC to 25.5° year round and turn it down to 24.5° when I’m “overheated” (room temp <24° is unbearably cold to me). We’re just built different here.

Yeeehaw
Prosecutor needs to be tried for treason. At the very least there needs to be a permanent license suspension.
I’d like to know whether that means he can drive for the 2nd hald of his prison term.
After those six months, we need you back out on those streets running over cyclists and subsidizing our dying domestic auto industry, you hear me?!
- Judge in this case after doing his sentencing
/s
It’s really cool how judges would say that all human lives are equal but also closely match them to their net worth…
I imagine he’ll face the consequences for the rest of his life, regardless of how the “justice” system handles it. Honestly, I’d be surprised if he lived 10 years before something happened to him. The victims had families.
BANANA
Interesting hypothesis. I’d love to peruse an executive summary of your research methodologies.
It’s short for bananas banana republic. As in the law is fucked up, or it isn’t followed. USA has become a banana republic.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_republicI just though I’d shorthand it, because there are so many news stories that show this, that it’s exhausting to respond to them individually.
How long until ICE sees his name and deports him because “criminal”
