Exactly right in this situation.
What about involuntary manslaughter? Vehicular manslaughter?
Make sure this person at least never drives again.
Check their phone records and see if they sent messages, or used data during this time.
Remember folks, if you want someone dead but would also like to walk or rather drive away Scott free, just use a car!
You can always count on the lapd to do the wrong thing.
It's probably the biggest car dependant slum in all of America. Lapd is run by gangs, anyways.
Thqt makes it sound like 'the crips and bloods own the cops'
Which is a far nicer picture than the truth:
The lapd and lasd organize themselves in formal departmwnts, yes, but also white supremacist cop gangs, where they have special prestige tattoos based on the race of victims killed.
Some people are still old enough to remember when they collaborated with the cia to flood black communities with cocaine.
That's infuriating. The driver is still 100% responsible for what happens as a result of their driving or vehicle!
And now anyone who kills a kid in a school zone can play the "my foot slipped" game and go home, while a family has the worst day of their life.
Complete unacceptable.
Yeah, having legal ways to murder kids is going to be a big deal for the right pretty soon, and it's always been a consequence reducer to do your crimes with a car.
Not only is it a legal way to kill someone, but the media makes it always sound like the victim is at fault, "as he was walking in between vehicles."
Yeah, no shit. It's not like he could have avoided walking between vehicles if the entire area is flooded with vehicles. What about the other 5 who were injured? What did they do to get hit? /s
Well yeah. You cant let the weak and literally pedestrian live. That's not okay.
If you kill driving a car, i should get to watch you as you watch your loved ones groubd into paste.
