Jesus some of the responses here seriously make me question humanity
Here's reality. He drove drunk, recklessly, and took a life in the process. The argument that what he blew isn't even drunk. IT DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER. State of Washington has a limit of .08 he was over that so bam that's driving under the influence.
I don't buy the whole it's an accident crap. It isn't news to anybody licensed to drive. You're told over and over when you go to get your license, go to traffic school, hell even in some places where you purchase alcohol, If you drive drunk there's serious consequences. It's possible you can get yourself or SOMEONE ELSE killed.
In this day of uber, lyft, air bnb, public transportation, etc, you have to be a real fucking idiot to get behind the wheel drunk, even a bigger idiot to get in the car with them knowing they're not fit to drive. Because of incredibly poor decisions, 2 kids have to live their life now without their father and a wife who has to figure out how to raise her kids on her own.
"He has to live his life knowing he killed his best friend, that's punishment enough." Sorry, but not in the eyes of the law. State has laws and a a series of repercussions if those laws are broken. Taking into consideration some of the information here, sounds like he caught a break.
I like Cory he's incredibly fucking talented, but he's also got a problem. Now he's got plenty of time to think about it and get his shit together. I hope he does.
