Well it was an accident.  The child did run out into the street.  He was not intoxicated or otherwise impaired.  His mind was not functioning properly after the “ACCIDENT”. But, what he did after the accident did not contribute to the accident or her demise.  Stuff happens.  My mother was killed in a car accident.  The man that hit her made a mistake based on the fact that stuff happens. His life should not have to be taken because hers was.  How is sending him to prison going to bring her back.
