#1 It isn't fair. He's just an idiot kid, the driver. The real ones probably have a thing with the county officials.

#5 ^ Wait, I thought he was younger ? The pics of the arrest showed a younger chap. I must be conflating two different news. Sorty sorry.

#8 No, he's right. I stand corrected.

I was talking about the driver. The driver arrested back then was this Mo Robinson chap, who said he was just driving them; looked very shocked in the pic, as if he was just discovering his dead cargo too.

Manslaughter is correct for them. I suppose the courts got lucky these poor Vietnamese died, or it would have simply been an immigration racket charge and they'd all be doing this again.
