I didn't know Sarah, but this story bothers me. The driver killed someone because he ran a red light at 65 mph. Again, 65 mph, through an intersection, in a 55 zone, on a non-emergency call. I cannot imagine what Sarah's parents are going through.
Such carelessness and negligence by someone who should be an excellent driver isn't excusable. How can they let this guy off for running his giant van through an intersection at 65 mph through a red light into this teenagers car? Nothing can bring her back and I'm sure this guy is tortured. But, looking at his priors, he doesn't have much respect for traffic laws and doesn't ever need to drive again.
Misdemeanor?
