Justice will be served.
It’s not likely this guy has enough money to hire adequate legal representation.
I believe Len will do some time.
As much as Marci Kitchen? Maybe he can go take a nice trip to South America before he serves a light sentence and gets early release too? I hear fatal hit and run sentences are like the new mega-grow sentences…slim to none
We’ll see.
Yes we shall. No argument here. I’m glad they caught him- it’s a despicable thing to do.
PURE SPECULATION here, but dude may have fled because he was DUI, and in California, one can be charged with murder if killing a person while driving under the influence (of something). Flee, like MK did after killing her own daughter, and DUI cannot be proven — if not immediately apprehended. Lesser charges occur as a result. Check the laws in CA.
If true, the policy can be remedied by simply making the hit and run charge a bit worse for length of sentence than DUI.
Manslaughter IS 3rd degree murder…meaning causing death without intent to do so.
