This horrific accident that happened in 2019 was BIG news. The driver had ADMITTED taking drugs earlier in the day. For reasons I cannot fathom the judge would NOT permit this drug use claims to be presented in court. This is amazing. I am glad that our Governor finds it shocking too. Totally acquitted (albeit after spending 3-years in prison prior to the case)!
Fortunately, he was NOT allowed to walk out of the courthouse a free man. That is some consolation. He is being held on some immigration violation (technicalities). It appears that he might still have driver license related cases in MA — as well as civil prosecution.
He is probably being kept in isolation. The riders that died belonged to a club that did a lot of charity work & as such much respected & liked. There will be folks in prison that are not happy that he got acquitted. IF I get the time I really would like to understand what happened at the trial. It seems a travesty. A travesty of justice.
