Probably because blood money was paid !!

I can't see that he would even have been charged yet, this only happened a few days ago.

Re: Shocking, three dead
 

Three months for killing three innocent people while drunk driving (so one month per life).

One year for not appearing in court.

The sad thing is, I'm no longer lost for words as this is the norm.

"God’s divine care helped avoid a bigger disaster as a sports utility vehicle had just left the restaurant’s parking few minutes before the crash, said the head of TPP." :blink:

And...

"According to the Penal Law, a suspect who causes an accident that leads to three or more deaths while under the influence of liquor, could face between three to seven years in jail and a fine."

Or 3 months...
