Our son Paul was killed on June 12/10 at 9:20am by a 21 year old girl and she was charged 2 days ago with Dangerous Driving Causing Death. It is unthinkable that she has been driving up to this point. When this happened we were told that we needed permission to check for drug/alcohol/cell phone and then were told what the charges would be and that the result would be basically a slap on the wrist, we were floored and our horror continued. I don't understand how the media reports the tragedy but never informs the viewers that our laws are a joke and that a loved one can be killed and that the person that killed the loved one will walk away and there is no justice for the grieving families left behind.
The law must be impressive to make everyone think twice and behave accordingly. Unfortunately, this will not bring Paul back but his tragic death will bring about "change". I am so sorry for the loss of this fine man. May he rest in peace knowing that he has made a difference in life as well as in death.
