what's 2 people's lives really worth???
Plymouth officer, DUI when he collides head on with another car, killing both passengers, gets a proverbial slap on the wrist.
He was found not guilty of MV manslaughter, not guilty of MV homicide, but guilty of DUI?
WTF???
Unless there was some specific evidence that was presented in court, I can't understand how he can be guilty of DUI but not for killing two women while he was DUI??? What did they do, claim the sober women collided with the drunk cop???
I guess he had a really good lawyer and had a really bad jury?
This story had me shaking my head because it doesn't make any sense.

I thought that was the difference between and "accidental discharge" with no charges and a "negligent discharge" with full prosecution.

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

That is EXACTLY what the accident reconstruction teams concluded: the woman's car crossed the line hitting the officer's car head on. Maybe his blood alcohol level impeded his ability to react to the oncoming car?
Just because you are sober doesn't mean you were not distracted while driving....oh my cell phone is ringing....another txt message...OH someone just responded to a FB post

Maybe, but if they haven't disclosed any information to back up the claim, who's o say they crossed the line because he was all over the road and they were trying to avoid HIM?
I guess the burden of proof goes to the deceased victims due to his "officer" status. Ironic that there is no defense because the defense is DEAD!
Just lucky I guess?
