Driver who killed a cyclist gets just under the maximum sentence.
The story is at http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2008/01/24/national/a030132S13.DTL. It seems that a drunk driver not only killed a bicyclist, but that a tape of her talking to a male friend came to light. She apparently did not realize that telephone calls while in jail are recorded. -- excerpt from article --- During the conversation, the man told Arrington that an acquaintance believed she should get a medal and a parade because she had "taken out" a "tree hugger, a bicyclist, a Frenchman and a gay guy all in one shot." Arrington laughed. When the man said he knew it was a terrible thing to say, she responded, "No, it's not." -- end of excerpt --- When the judge got wind of it, he was not amused and called the conversation "breathtaking in its inhumanity." I guess she's not laughing now that she's been sentenced. -- My real name backwards: nemuaZ lliB |
