The kid blew .02 3 HOURS after he killed that young lady. His father is a pastor at a local church and they have yet to apologize. They only cried in court when the victim’s family pleaded to not let that kid out of jail until their daughter is buried. Drugs were in the jeep too. He’d been thrown out of several schools for cocaine, stealing and other issues. His father stood up in court and remarked how his whole church was praying for their son’s release. Not once did he mention the young lady that was mowed down by his drunken son.
