How do you come up with 'manslaughter'?

I'm very sorry to hear what happened to the friend, but manslaughter is a charge that usually is brought about by the death of an individual.

 

tonya harding party for the driver?

 

Well, I'm obviously no lawyer. Point is the girl should be charged with something more than a traffic ticket.Perhaps someone familiar with law can identify the appropriate charge.

 

Well I know what you are saying and I agree.....

I'm sure there are current laws on the books she could have been charged with, and it is difficult to understand how she was the cause of such a serious accident and got off with just a 'ticket'...

 

WOW , what a mind set. And you're a public servant also. Thank you very much for showing the whole forum how the rest of the world thinks. Hey...It wasn't my kid or my fault. Fu*kit. Would I want my son in jail ? Or my daughter ? OH OF COURSE NOT ! YOU KNOW, COME TO THINK OF IT, LET'S MAKE OUR LAWS EASIER. THAT WAY I WONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT MY FAMILY AND MY LIFE AND MY POCKETBOOK, AS LONG AS IT'S NOT ME.
And when YOU or your spoiled rotten kid kills someone , you hire the best lawyers to make the ignescent look guilty and your precious child goes on killing for another day. How dare we have the gaul to think we could put your little precious in jail ?

If my child gets on the street and is negligent and takes another families life. Your dam right I want her to suffer the consequences. Kids today think the road is a place to play, put on makeup, talk on the c phone, play with the radio, fight with friends , look at how beautiful each other is.

Everyone knows in America today, there's very little consequences for accidents other than higher premiums. With that mind set, nothing will get better.

I am curious though, you being a cop and all. In all your years of experience, what would in your opinion, do you think would help motorcyclist ?

As I can see. And not one thing has been done about it. But the good thing about it is, bikers are concerned or it wouldn't be posted here. The sad part as I stated is nothing is being done about it.

 

And it will continue to be, until something changes. Hell, Billy Lane, DRUNK, hit a biker, Killed him, and here it is nearly 2 years later, and he is STILL walking the steet and making a damned good living. Something is seriously wrong.

 

Sorry to hear about your friend. There is a real lacking in personal responsibility these days. It was an accident that could have been prevented with a little bit of awareness by the teenage driver.
Now aman lost his leg. He's scarred and disabled for the rest of his life.
The girl (and her parents if she's under 18)aught to pay. There is no excuse for stupid. [:@]

 

That's right. I seeattorneys using the phrase"Kill a biker, go to jail" in their ads. When you consider the likelihoodofBilly Lane walking away from his manslaughter charge, this seems like nothing more thanlip service.
