Re: Re: Re: Re: SAPD Officer Killed in the Line of Duty

Its still an accident versus a premeditated crime. There is a tendancy in this country to approach every issue through the need to blame.

Maybe the guy will turn out to be drunk, mayeb it will turn out that witnesses were wrong on how fast he was going.

But it still is an accident.

I'm telling you this guy was drunk... and speeding.

If he had lived, He'd be charged with Intoxication Manslaughter (if he was drunk). If you are doing something reckless (like speeding at 100PMHG on a dark freeway) and it causes someone elses death, its no accident. Tragic, yes. But no accident.

Toxicology reports will be released in a few weeks.
