i cannot say that this makes me happy. The verdict won't bring back those five lives, remove the lingering pain of the survivors' injuries, nor relieve the heartache of the families and friends of the lost. i suppose i am relieved that this driver will never again have the opportunity to kill with a vehicle, but i find that a cold comfort. i would hope that such an incident would never happen again, but in my heart i know otherwise.
It's a comfort to know the legal system recognized the severity of the crime and set this precedent. Too often, the drivers are given lenient verdicts and sentences.
