So he gets away with at the very least manslaughter. I hope her family files a civil case against him. And wins.
Not sure as it sounds like the prosecutor that resigned botched the investigation. Will be interesting to read the documents once filed as to why the charges were dropped

My mom's funeral was today. I did pretty well until one of her favorite songs was sung by family friends of ours. And then came the waterworks.

We got a police escort through town to the cemetery on the naval base. For as much as I hate Pensacola traffic, one thing they are great at is pulling over for funerals. I mean they come to a complete stop even on the other side of a four lane highway. There was even a pedestrian who saluted.

Then when we got to the base entrance, the police escorts and the navy sentry guards all saluted. I know it's protocol but it still gives me chills.

Sad, but congrats to her, we have some big timers on this board-and related to those on this board.

Simple respect.

All of us -- all of us -- can sign up for that.

Agnostic raised Catholic, sending the good thought,
