PALM BEACH COUNTY, Fla. -- The driver of Lamborghini that killed an 82-year-old Uber driver in Delray Beach has been sentenced to two years of house arrest, according to court documents.
The Sept. 21, 2016 crash at the intersection of NE 6th Avenue and 1st Street killed J. Gerald Smith of West Boynton Beach.

According to witnesses, a yellow Lamborghini and a yellow Porsche were traveling at a high rate of speed when the Lamborghini crashed into Smith's Buick Enclave, injuring both drivers.

Police said Smith and his wife had dinner waiting for him when his SUV was hit by the speeding Lamborghini.

The driver of the Lamborghini, Roger Wittenberns, pleaded guilty to DUI manslaughter and driving under the influence causing injury to a person or property, court records show.

A police report said that Wittenberns had told a trauma nurse at Delray Medical Center that he had “a couple of drinks.”

Surveillance video at a restaurant recorded the crash at NE Sixth Avenue and NE First Street. Crash detectives estimate the Lamborghini was going at least 75 mph.

The wealthy play by different set of rules in this nation. If this person had been from the hood or the holler his ass would been in jail for several years. Bet the farm on it.

And exactly how do you plan to pay for this utopian idea?
The estimate is 3.2 Trillion a year for Medicare for all.
Last years tax receipts were equal to about 3.2 Trillion.
Do you see any problem here?

If we use every penny to pay for Medicare for all then there would be no one hired to accept the taxes needed to pay for it hence no Medicare.
Before you say make the rich pay they already pay 35%. Assuming you have a very good paying job you might pay 20% in income tax. If we tax business and wealthy too much they move or move money overseas where it can not be taxed as heavily.

So of course it is the Republicans responsable. Or do you mean that thank god they are fiscally responsible?

Like the great Democrat visionary Ocasio-Cortez said when asked, "We'll just pay for it!"

Just like that!

How about going vigilante on the indigent thugs who get away with murder? Same-same?

You can always tell which liberals are wealthy and have never actually paid their own bills.

Amen to this! What does a person have to be guilty of in order to get a prison sentence?

God bless you and the victim's family always!!!
