hit and run justice
A cyclist was hit head-on this spring in Missoula, MT. The motorist
didn't stop and clearly knew he hit someone. You can read the full story he http://www.missoulabike.org/BicycleA...etyAlerts.html This crime (in Montana) is a misdemeanor. That doesn't seem like justice to me. An accident is one thing, but deliberately leaving someone to die is altogether another matter. Is there anyone out there with a legal background that can defend this light penalty? |

If circumstances justify, the cage driver can be charged beyond that particular statute. It depends on the specifics and the local prosecutor. -paul |
