Just to play devils advocate here.
you can’t deny that that “accident“ would not have had a massive impact on his mental state. I’ve watched friends turn from absolutely certifiably nuts party animals to calm sober parents as soon as their first born showed up.
Let’s say witnessing the damage that he caused on that day and knowing that he caused this mess, has actually changed him. I mean how could it not. Yes he is rich but that has nothing to do with the crime, broke people do the same things.
What if the rich playboy upon his release turns over a new leaf and uses his wealth to spread education. Maybe he starts or speaks at AA meetings puts up money to fund rehab for people that can’t afford it. Maybe starts a scholarship for orphaned children to go to college. He doesn’t need to work but maybe he use his wealth to make amends. I’m assuming he’s a rich drunk that liked to party not a psychopath.
I can honestly say that at 43 years old I have never once driven while impaired but I cannot say that I haven’t put others at risk with my particular ”habits”.
I also can say if I was to cause any one harm with my actions It would definitely change my outlook.
At the moment I justify my speeding on public roads by saying “I pick safer spots” lI don’t excessively speed in town” “I’m not recluse when I speed”
Most of us on here would not be able to say they have not ever put lives at risk selfishly for there particular enjoyment. How would it change you?
That memory can’t be erased with any amount of money and that has to be the worst part for him. I would rather rot in jail with no recollection than live with what I had done. And that has nothin to do with my bank account balance.
He is just higher profile than the rest of the dui, speeding, street racing, texting, people out there on the roads.
Again just playing devils advocate
This post is only one point of view that has crossed my mind.
And if it was my family there is a chance that I may have been waiting for his parole.
Because Hunting season is now open.
