Sometimes, unavoidable deaths happen. Such as the case of a motorist who follows every law, takes every precaution, and still hits someone.

But attempting to pass a school bus...by leaving the roadway in and of itself is unlawful. You add vehicular homicide, it should not be that complicated
I mean, he's trying to equate this with police getting off for murder, or something. I'm just not seeing that with the driver.
A grand jury looked at it twice and said nothings there. No real reason to suspect bias, if a DA can go after you, they go after you. This DA claims he couldn't.

So if your child is ran over and killed....you are ok with no charges being brought against the driver?
The point I'm making in posting this here is that our laws and those who are responsible for enforcing them have to be addressed.
In this case they are saying because they can't prove "intent" then there's nothing to be done...carry on-sorry for you loss.
This lady was either driving too fast to stop and swerved to avoid hitting the bus or she attempted to go around a bus while loading/unloading children. Both of which are criminal.
School bus safety is a top priority in Mississippi. The Mississippi Legislature passed Nathan's Law as a proactive strategy to protect our most valuable resource- children.
Nathan's Law-
Requires motorists to stop at least 10 feet from a school bus when the bus is loading or unloading children. Motorists must not proceed until all children have crossed the street to or from the school bus, the flashing red lights are no longer activated, and the stop sign on the side of the bus is retracted.
Authorizes a charge of felony assault and a prison sentence of up to 20 years for motorists convicted of illegally passing a school bus that, in the process, results in injury or death.
I'm sure it wouldn't have been that bad. US riots are relatively tame by world standards.

Now thank god there wasn't a single Broly, Surt or Silent Master in that "common sense" jury. Cos it would have been a hung jury and the country would have to go through this again.
Because DT, it's not important to call out the racist cop who slowly murdered a restrained man as being an "animal", you need to call out the people protesting the crime as such. Bootlicking Nazis always good for a laugh.
Anyhow, I know just one of Chavin's crimes carries a maximum of 45 years (not that he'll get it), but I hope he's sentenced to total minimum of at least 50 years for all three crimes combined.
Again, why am I seeing this on my personal news feed. I never was about racism I was about the issue of gender. Why DO YOU KEEP STALLING AND AVOIDING CONFRONTATION YOU ****S
Since it's all for the same crime, third degree murder and manslaughter are essentially just lesser versions of second degree murder, Chauvin will likely serve time for all three crime concurrently. Which makes sense to me.
As far as I'm aware, yeah it's up to the judge but they tend to rely on precedent. Realistically, he'll serve his sentences concurrently and he'll probably be sentenced for under 20 years. But who knows.
Personally, I'm hoping he gets the full time for second degree as well which, after a bit of research, is apparently 40 years.
