First smart guy the employer told police this drunk stole the truck, second you can try and defend him but the fact is he killed a man. Oh yeah while your beating your bible and saying don't judge what happened to thow shall not kill? Say what you want but your friend is a habitual screw up. I hope he gets what is coming to him and he should hope they never let him out. An eye for an eye. He's a lot safer in there. Let's say a family member of yours is on the side of the road broke down and in need of assistance but before the tow truck gets there some drunk moron runs into them, will you defend them as well because you people with addiction obviously stick together. I caught the comment ( just because you make knew laws doesn't mean WE have to follow them) . That's ridiculous and the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I'm clean 4 years and know addiction so your barking up the wrong tree. It's an excuse and I'm sure your just full of them but see if your excuse will get your friend out of hell.
