Were his crimes a felony in Virginia?
If one kills someone in the commission of a misdemeanor, then it is a felony. I don’t understand why drivers without insurance or a license are treated any differently by the law. If it were it would stop a lot of illegals and drunks from getting on the road because if something happens, they will not get off and be severely punished. As it is, they get off with a slap of the wrist...even if someone is killed.
