I thought he’s being charged with 2nd degree vehicular homicide?
I believe there is a difference between 2nd degree murder and 2nd degree vehicular homicide...I think the max he can get is 10 years for each count whereas he could get life for 2nd degree murder. Each state laws are different. I am standing by to be corrected.
2nd degree vehicular homicide is roughly the equivalent of manslaughter-2 in NJ. Some states have murder-2 and murder-1 charge for drunken driving (Cali iirc).
