Ah but his new relationship is going to be with Big John on D Wing so I don't think he'll be trying that.

I think that's the story anyway, TL;DR.

how fortunate that a rng chose a sleight looking asian man rather than the 300lb slab of white anglo saxon protestant all american man-meat sat in front of him. Fucking appalling, all the way up. the airline might as well provide the victim with his own passenger jet and aircrew for the rest of his life for what this is going to end up costing them.

Wow, those sorts of harsh sentences are definitely going to make drivers think twice about being reckless cunts now.
The court heard that the guideline given to judges in cases of “momentary inattention” causing death was a low-level to high-level community order.
That's utter bollocks.

For the UK the judge actually sentenced him quite harshly.
I had a look at cases in The Netherlands, but there isn't that much online. What I found was also payment to family/driving license revoked for a certain amount of time/community service.
The jury system and the "driving w/o due care" VS "driving recklessly" may not help, we don't have that in NL. But does it mean more sentencing/harsher sentences?

You have to admire the CEO, though, for his ability to say one thing to the public, and another to his staff

Juries have no bearing on the sentence, unless they only find the defendant guilty of a lesser offence with lower sentencing guidelines.
Judges have sentencing guidelines which they are supposed to follow, but they do have some leeway to depart from these. They also take into account mitigating factors, and in this case it seems the defendant's contrition might have helped reduce the sentence. As well as the fact that he was in a car, which means you generally have a get-out-of-jail-free card.

Ah yes. Useful science is useful.

Yep, tx, i know juries don't set sentences and judges follow guidelines.
I was just wondering if "jury of car driving peers" VS a country with no jury system means harsher sentences.
As the Netherlands gets touted on "how to do it". It would be interesting to compare sentencing/convictions, it may be tricky though.

As an abuser he took advantage of cultural norms by turning the ex-wife's own parents against her.
I reckon a proper jail sentence will make it that much harder to pull that trick again in his new relationship.
