    Charges should not be anywhere near manslaughter
    Unless driver was under drugs or alcohal. DUI
    IT WAS AN ACCIDENT,BY CARELESSNESS

    Vehicular manslaughter is not the same as murder. Tragic for the mom to be.

    @Huh?

    An unborn child was lost due to the negligence of the teen.

    A most dangerous intersection, one of several.

    We need for someone to examine the needs of this area, focus effort toward improving our safety, not to mention quality of life.

    Remember to VOTE.

    @Huh?
    I believe there is a legal difference between vehicular homicide and murder. Pretty sure that murder has to show intent and the vehicular homicide is a death by accident.

    if the driver was found negligent ,it can absolutely be vehicular manslaughter

  10. Huh? on December 1st, 2025 1:57 am

    Pat, how in the world is that murder?

    To add to my earlier comment. It does not make it any easier im just saying it does not make it murder. Praying for the family to make it through these hard times.

    So, the 17 yo turned in front of an oncoming vehicle. That woman lost her baby because of it. I hope he’s charged with vehicular homicide. No question.
    Pray for her and her family.
