Well, if we're lucky somebody with actual experience in the DA world can chime in and fill in the blanks, but from what I've learned over the years, it's a different mindset. I don't think you should lose your life over one mistake but in this case, we have a series of mistakes that lead to a very bad outcome for one individual and anybody who was tied to him. Drunk driving, illegal drugs, hit and run, a death.....

Before we sharpen the pitchforks let's let the legal system do it's thing but DAs are political animals and it's probably important to reinforce that there are people who care very deeply about car on bike violence.
