I hope the death penalty is on the table for this. I'll volunteer to pull the switch.

No. Accidents happen, and most of the time its more one party's fault, but drunk, unlicensed, and going 115. Then fleeing? That's criminal on multiple levels. F her and her whole family. Hope she dies in jail.

I wonder what percentage of motorcycle accidents happen in the night/dark vs. daylight. I think it's high.

I used to have to drive that stretch of road to get to work every day. Got on/off at the Glenwood Ave. exit. Almost got wiped out quite a few times in the morning, people fly on that stretch, half of them texting. Glad I don't work over that way anymore. She deserves everything she gets.

So she had no license, no insurance, no registration, was drunk, hit and run and only warranted a $26k bond to get out of jail? Seems a lot smaller then it should be.
