[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, this is upsetting. I feel awful for Braylon’s family, can you even imagine someone getting 1 year of jail time for recklessly killing your child? DUI sentencing is such a joke in this country, but this is just beyond insulting to Arlington citizens. And I’m guessing charging as a minor will keep his name from being released. Dollars to donuts the perpetrator goes on to commit some other crime, he already had a history of drug use and 94 mph is insanely egregious. You have to be a sociopath to drive like that. I just can’t find myself hoping for his rehabilitation when he doesn’t even have actual significant consequences to deal with. [/quote]

All part of the joy of the soft-on-crime country we now have.  A slap on the wrist for killing someone.  [/quote]

If you can find examples of a time when we levied harsher sentences for drunk driving that causes injuries, fatalities, or property damage, I would sure like for you to post that link. Because I don't think you can.[/quote]

DP. About 20 years ago, the drunk driver that killed my family member was sentenced to 15 years in prison. No priors. He served every bit of the sentence. That probably wasn’t enough, but one year is ridiculous. [/quote]
