The laws DON’T fit the crimes, but the amount of hate I see on every story related to this guy is crazy. He’s literally asking for the same rights as every other person with that conviction but is being dragged like he’s getting special treatment.

Anyway, it was denied by the judge. He will continue to have to get approved rides to and from work.

People should consider that
1) if they are staring at their phone while driving they might run over a baby or a group of babies or someone’s mom or maybe a Supreme Court Justice or someone and then
2) people are going to hate you for a very long time

Hang up the phone!!

He served his sentence. He's done.

Do you think he should never drive again?

That's what I think, yes. Anyone who is found at fault for the death of another person by car should lose the privilege of driving. The penalties for vehicular homicide are far too lenient. That women in NYC who recently killed two children hasn't even been charged as far as I know.

Kill someone with your car? I personally believe you should never be allowed to drive again. Tough luck, move to a small apartment in the city.

But no way in hell should you ever be trusted with a car.

You sound insane.

He hasn’t served his sentence, he was permitted a work release while he serves. He’s out 14 hours each day. That’s plenty of time to work and bike/walk/bus. I have zero sympathy that he is inconvenienced during his 12 month sentence.

If he finds it too difficult to commute, then he just needs to tell the court he can’t participate in work release after all and I am sure they can arrange for him to stay in jail 24/7 until he finishes his sentence.

Absolutely. He was lucky to get a work release granted. Not every person who commits vehicular homicide gets afforded that same PRIVILEGE.

It was an infant. What if it was some junkie? Aren't all lives supposed to be equal? He was a dumbass but his crime doesn't demonstrate moral turpitude to me.

He did even get out of the car. This guy is a POS, baby killer.

Privilege here, nothing to see, now move along.

What privilege is that at work, exactly? Why don't you tell us all?

I think the laws prohibit him from being able to take public transportation.

I had a partner whose brother was arrested and sentenced to ~9 months in jail after so many reckless driving convictions within a certain period of time. He got work release like this guy and he was able to either walk (had to stick to a predetermined route and do it within a set time period), use a bike that was provided by the jail (again, predetermined route & within a time limit), or get up to three drivers approved who could give him rides. The approved drivers were mainly people like family members who had good driving records and clean criminal records. They had to sign a bunch of forms that they'd stick to a predetermined route and not ever make any stops or provide him with anything, not even water, or face jail time.

If you ever see guys walking or riding bikes with the bright neon green/yellow vests on on Sycolin road, those are the work release guys.

He was working at a Starbucks in Ashburn when he was convicted and had to transfer to one in Leesburg so he'd be able to walk/ride/get a ride to work. I feel like there was some rule about your job not being a certain distance from the detention center either.

This is how I feel about those who get a DUI. And then there's my brother who just had DUI number 3 reduced from a felony and is about 6 months away from being able to drive again with an Interlock on his car.

Some people don't deserve to be able to drive. Who cares how much it inconveniences them or causes them to not be able to maximize their earning potential.
