Rice should go to jail. If that was any one of us, we’d be locked up for years… he should lose his license too.

[@vanrajsindha9918]

Two tier justice system !

[@derekm424]

He definitely accrued a lot of points and the fact that it's on camera means... No one will insure him for a long time. I agree a license suspension should be the minimum for reckless driving, speeding and the other myriad of traffic laws I'm sure were violated

[@denysecoop7356]

Agreed, on all points made! He also should get busted for leaving the scene of an accident. He’s lucky no one was seriously injured or killed. They’d nail him for vehicular manslaughter, and then he’d really be screwed! Most people don’t run from the scene of an accident, especially when they’re famous, and they’re leaving their expensive exotic car behind. It’s not as of the cops can’t figure out who he is, and everyone has a camera these days, so why be so stupid? The only reason that I can come up with is if he’d been out drinking… in that case he might be better off walking away. He has the money for a top notch attorney (apparently he has one now), and he’s famous enough that he was able to go on tv and do the apology tour…

Why Rice still not in jail? Would they have treated a ordinary person in same way?

[@sherribatko8981]

Why rTromp not in jail???

[@canitbethat]

My understanding is that it's normal for the police to investigate crimes before they actually file charges, and even after people are charged, they're jailed pending trial only if they're dangerous, a flight risk, too poor to post bail, or violate the conditions of their bail. So, isn't it completely normal for people to be free until they're actually convicted and sentenced? If so, why do people immediately start saying, "Why isn't he in jail?" as soon as they find out that someone has committed a crime? :-)

[@Axelrain9880]

Never, ever leave the scene of an accident especially with injuries.. Charges should be in order...

I think the U.S. claims something like "95% strike precision." I suppose that means they kill the wrong people "only" 5% of the time, which on the scale of U.S. drone strikes would probably mean hundreds of innocent people killed, just in places like Afghanistan that the world doesn't watch so closely.

At the onset of 2024, I decided that there needed to be a change in my source for world news. Eight years ago, I moved away from a city with its on an ABC affiliate. After leaving, I turned to an NBC station for my nightly news. However, in January of 2024, I cut the satellite cable and decided to rely on KZbin for the broadcast of news of world events. That's when I rediscovered ABC, and I am so glad I did! In less than two hours after live broadcast, I am able to say "Hi, David" and only pay for the data that my cellphone uses during the "commercial free" news cast! Data, by the way, I was already paying for! Now, I don't plan on ever moving to another town/city, nor evening news broadcast! So, "Hi David; I am so glad we have found our together home"!
