| first off, it's awful for the Angels and all families involved, but the guy that did this is still just a person, capable of mistakes just like you and me. We have no right to refer to him as trash for the tragic results of his actions. Does he deserve to pay? Absolutely. But he's not trash. | |

Mistakes yes but repeated mistakes and i quote from what he said in the courtroom after his last DUI "I understand that if I continue to drink and drive it may result in death or serious bodily injury to another person."Im sure that wasn't his own words but still. I just dont really feel sorry for people that have a chance of messing up and seeing what the ramifications can be yet do nothing about it. Theres was a girl down here in Florida who went off to college and went to her first ever keg party and got drunk for the first time in her life, drove and ended up killing her best friend and now is in jail for it, i feel alot more sorry for somebody like that... | |

But he's not trash. | If you've already been through the massive, miserable, and crushingly expensive ordeal that is a DUI, and yet only three years later you're back driving so drunk that you run a red light, plow into another car, and flee from the scene, then yeah -- you're trash.
I had a DUI some years back. Nothing terrible or dramatic, and I wasn't even particularly drunk; I just got pulled over in a speeding trap one Friday night after happy hour when I was distracted and pissed off at my wife, but boom, I ended up in handcuffs. But most of a decade later, that experience still affects the way I behave every single time I drink in public. Anybody who's been already been through it and yet still ends up behind the wheel of a car drunk enough to run red lights deserves to go away for a long, long time to someplace where they pound things in your ass and cut little parts of your body off for fun. Because you're clearly too stupid and selfish to operate out in civilized society. | |

| I think that's still the case. IIRC from what I heard on the radio the other day, in California, if you have a DUI on your record, and kill anybody in a traffic incident while under the influence, you can be tried for Murder I. What did he end up being charged with again? | |

And yep, if you have a DUI in Cali, they make you take a class and sign a form saying you acknowledge the fact that if you drive drunk again you can kill someone basically from what they've said about it.
Honestly though, this guy needs to be locked up and have the key thrown away.
DUI of 3 times the legal limit
Suspended License
Previous DUI charge
Some other alcohol related charge (Maybe public intoxication?)
Fleeing the scene
Running a redlight
Killed 3 people
