The judge is likely a fan of Elvis Costello. Accidents will happen.

‘We don’t charge people with murder for accidents’

Well, no, because if it is an accident, it isn’t murder.

The question is, was it an accident?

But yet there’s this poor woman in a Texas jail who ran over her husband a couple of times because she saw him coming out of a hotel with her on his arm. It was a pathetic courtroom drama and you really had to feel sorry for her. Her husband was a real creep.

accused of running over her boyfriend with her car last year after a tequila-infused fight.

You say accident, I say tequila-infused driving.

How drunk was she when she tried to drive? If she did have that blood alcohol level and she killed someone other than her boyfriend would the judge have dismissed that as an accident?

She got the P*ssy pass.

Its my understanding that deaths caused by drunk drivers usually end up being prosecuted even if the drunk driver didn't intend to kill anyone.

If the fight was “tequila-infused,” then people can be and are charged with murder for accidents. It is called vehicular homicide if you accidentally kill someone while driving drunk.

The judge is probably hoping the lady will lie down for him in gratitude.

It really sounds like the judge has the hots for this woman. His comments sound like those of a love-struck teenager.

Murdering someone with a car will always result in a shorter prison term than killing with a gun.

A judge with common sense again. It’s about time.
