He's got a clean record and being super young and stupid on his side. I think we all made plenty of bad choices at 22. Who knows, anything could happen I guess. What we do know is it will be at least 2 years because probation isn't an option with the DUI w/ fatality charge. I would be surprised if it's anything over 10 years. You're not gonna see a max sentence for someone with zero priors.
I agree....But at the end of the day, driving drunk is driving drunk. Comparing murder, i.e. premeditated compared to a loss of control, is apples to oranges. Beating someone ass with a punch or two, in a bar fight, dispute, etc, etc., then walk away, or what not---certainly is different than just assaulting someone with no reason, and beating them to a pulp...
Funny----this is exactly what I told the officer. 🤣 🤣
I see some definite jail time, with a years of probation, loss of license, etc, etc...And very iffy that he ever see's anothe NFL paycheck. And IF he does, tons will go to the family.
Yes, the minimum is 2 years behind bars. There is no way to plea down to probation. That is what he gets at the very least if convicted, and I don't know a lawyer on the planet that will be able to skirt that conviction.
I'm not so sure that's the reason he is crying though. Could just as easily be because he knows he just ruined his own life.
Maybe with the clean record, iirc, there's something like shock probation. Not sure if that applies here. The shock of being jailed will hopefully deter someone from doing it again. This dude straight killed a woman (unintentionally).
Ima take the killing someone put of the equation bc thats terrible and irelevant to my point.
Kid from our town got manslaughter for doing this about 10 years ago. I wanna say he only had to serve 3-4 but obv every case will be different. Dont see any way ruggs dodges time though unf for him.
Kinda on topic, but doesn't Arizona have some crazy DUI rules? Like tent city and interlocks for multiple years?
What a Horrible take. not a doubt the worst response i have every seen on any chat sight. This man just murdered a young woman because he wanted to have fun drinking and driving at 156 MPH and YOU don't want to say horrible things about him because YOU did the same things. Good Gawd what has this world become. and yes you did get lucky... What a stupid phrase "maybe there REALLY is something to being able to hold your alcohol!!! no one can hold there alcohol!! one drink fogs the mind and once the mind is impaired you dont know when to stop. Damn what a bad take
Was it in Arizona or Nevada? I was reading that in Nevada, a DUI with injury or death is minimum two years, maximum 20 years. No probation, mandatory prison time.
If you say you have regard for human life and then drive drunk then you ARE a hypocrite,
In Nevada, vehicular manslaughter is only a misdemeanor with a max 6 month jail sentence and it does not involve driving under the influence. Basically they are saying manslaughter is just negligence, not necessarily recklessness. Example: running a red light because you weren't paying attention or speeding slightly over the limit.
I am with you. I absolutely hate it when people go out of their way to admit they have flaws and make an effort to show reason. Fvck @JimboBBN!
Blow me, bitch. Not going to explain myself to you. I have driven drunk before and didn't want to sound like a hypocrite calling him out. Sorry you don't like it.
I'm sure he's never made a mistake in his perfect, little life. I'm also sure he's man enough to admit it if he did. What a loser.
Def Nevada---I was just talking in general about tough DUI states ( not involving injury or death)
YOU ALREADY did explain your self to me. you are a selfish potential murder that could care less about other people. But for the grace of God -- which you call LUCK-- you would be in this assholes position. He should be publicly hung. YOU and people like this guy are the reason this world sucks... and FUVK YOU hard..
You're probably thinking specifically of Maricopa County and former sheriff/politician Joe Arpaio. He was notorious for that.
What an emotional little vag you are.
I think you are right. Pink jumpsuits, weekends in tent city jail, a ridiculous amount of community service.
Yep, that's the guy. The tent city was shut down like 4 years ago.
He could get 2. He could get 20. Those are the minimum and maximum. No, I am not betting on a sentence that is based on one person's opinion, especially when I have no idea who that person is.
Maturity comes with age. In my early twenties, I make plenty of stupid choices driving when I shouldn't have. Thankfully I never hurt anyone or got caught. My best friend died at 27 drunk driving. That was what really woke me up. Now, if I have more than 3 beers, I don’t drive, no exceptions. Most of the time, if I'm out drinking, I plan ahead and don't drive at all. But you're right, with all of the options out there, there is no reason to risk it. I routinely drive people home from the bar and anyone who argues is not served ever again.
It's embarassing how many simple things Ive had to learn the hard way to finally grasp. Luckily-no major transgressions.
Also taking out the 35mph that he was in, if u are sober and have an accident and kill someone going 156 id say your gonna be in a world of hurt, as opposed if you were going 70. I def thonk the speed is and will be a factor but im obv no lawyer.
He didnt say he drives drunk every weekend or every night. He said hes done it before. I have too, and imagine 90% of ppl have at least once in their life, if not many times especially when they were young. I have a dui charge on my record from 2-3 years ago. I decided to quit drinking. Thats not an excuse for my dui, its a step i took so i will never get another one. Everyone makes mistakes. And not everyone lives in a big city where taxis and uber are even an option, not that thats excuses it, just saying sometimes its not as easy as jist call an uber for everyone.
