And now dozens are outside near the spot (not the issue) but there are many vehicles doing burnouts up and down the street in the victims memory....

The irony, the victims last sound he heard was probably screeching rubber....    Its the sound that woke me up when it happened....

Is this normal, or am I just an old cranky man?  

That's fucking stupid.

R.I.P. burnouts? That's weird.

A woman just happens to hit her boyfriend with her car when he just finished bike riding with other people?

Yeah, OK! Sounds more like premeditated murder.

 

No it happened at 2:13 in the morning, he was walking in the bike lane, after he got out of the vehicle after a fight they had up the road.... not on the sidewalk.

Damn near had that happen to me.....I heard the engine screaming and was able to run into a yard and hurdled one of those big green electrical boxes....and she barely missed that.

young love...

You're right, had to re-read the article. It is badly written and jumps all over the place.

I still don't understand why isn't this being investigated as a murder.
If the sexes had been switched, he would have been booked on murder 1 by now.

Im sure given enough time, the charges will be filed under manslaughter.

I have a really hard time beleiving that this was truly an accident, if so, she is still responsible.....

I was just reading about this.  All I could do is shake my head
