Ask the family if that's excessive. He ruined their lives he should kiss his good bye i have no sympathy for people who do stupid shit like this.

they should let him walk and instead have gotskillz go murk him.
sends a message, you know, eh

He also has several prior DUIs, and during the last one signed an agreement acknowledging that if he killed someone while drunk he would be charged with murder. Seems to me like he knew what he was getting into. Lock him up imo

Sometimes alcoholics just don't know what they are doing and if they don't get help (family, friends) then they will always do this type of stuff. I think the government needs to step up and start issuing the breathalyzer car starting device in everyones car who has had a DUI for at least a couple months. I think it's the governments fault is what I'm saying.

This.

DUI laws are too lenient.

He deserves a needle in the arm.

Obviously the punishment is acceptable. I thought it was common knowledge that if you drive drunk and kill someone you are facing serious jail time. I'm sure if this was his first offense he'd be receiving 3-5, but this scumbag knew the consequences and decided to not give a fuck and kill 3 people. He also mamed another young man that will live in pain both physically and emotionally the rest of his life.

it doesn't. A person is repeatedly committing a crime that puts people in danger. He is faced with little in the way of consequences for those actions. The court tells him the next time he does it, if someone gets hurt then they will throw the book at him? That's insane. Don't give leniency for one crime in exchange for a harsher penalty for some hypothetical future crime especially when the person has shown a pattern of behavior.

I have two questions. 1), if the driver would have maybe stopped at say, an In-N-Out or a Five Guys and had a burger, would the extra time and alcohol absorption maybe have kept him just sober enough to avoid the tragic accident? And 2), if both burger joints were side by side, which one would have been the tastier choice?

Obviously Five Guys

repeat offender hurts his argument
think a nfl player killed someone drunk driving a yr or so ago and only got 30 days

Are you joking me??? It's not like you are in a different world if you are an alcoholic, get real dude how silly can you be? The governments fault? I really hope this is a level, there can't be people this stupid and misguided.

I mean do you really think he should have a lighter sentence he was still on probation for his 1st DUI. He was 3 times over the legal limit, he fled the scene which means to me even his drunken state he was able to justify what he had done and knew he should get the fuck out of there.
And oah yeah he killed people. Congrats.

Results oriented much? So how about poker's John Racener (who I like btw) who just got his 3rd DUI. Does he just get a fine and 3 mos b/c he just so happened to not hit another car? What about if it was this guys 1st DUI & he killed Adenhart and 2 others, would you want the same sentence?
I honestly would like for breathalyzers to be in every fucking car and you have to blow in it to start the car. I know a lot of ppl would hate it b/c of constitutional rights but to me it's not much different then getting molested before flying to make sure we are safe. It makes no sense to me that they are that much more worried about ppl on airlines then in cars since we are in cars 100000000000 X more then in the air.

I know this won't be a popular opinion but if it would solve people getting killed by drunk drivers I say go for it

Guy at Angola was found innocent after serving something like 30 years of his double life sentence. Not saying its the same as this cut and dry case, but what you are saying is dont put anybody to life i prison, just kill them.

Orgnal...
If they put a breathalyser in every car, people would easily find a way around it. Only thing to stop this would be a harder sentence for first offense. You get a DWI or you dont blow, you automatically go to jail for 2 weeks. No ifs ands or buts. You get a second...You go for 2 months.
