This situation won't change until more prosecutors are prepared to charge
violators with murder instead of manslaughter, and put them away for LONG

DWI). Just one. I'm sure it's rare.


I lost my sister to a drunk driver who was pleaded out to manslaughter
and served 6 months community service - 8 hours per week.

I agree with you entirely.
