OK, Medal of Freedom, so sue me. Still, giving one to murderer Ted
Kennedy, great values those libs have. Ted blocked windmills in his
yachting area because he thought they'd spoil his view, great
environmental records you libs have. I wish Kennedy a death
comparable to the one he gave to Kopechne, justice you know.
Apparently you don't know the definition of murder, either.
You are right, the correct charge for any mortal man would have been
DUI vehicular homicide. That probably would have drawn a year or two
in jail in 1969 that ends up being about 6 months and probation. These
days it would be more like 15 years. In a state like Florida you will
serve 85% of that by law.
Or 30 days.

MIAMI (AP) - Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donte' Stallworth began
serving a 30-day jail sentence Tuesday for killing a pedestrian while
driving drunk in Florida, a punishment made possible by his cooperation
with investigators and the fervent wish by the victim's family to put
the matter behind them.
Stallworth, 28, also reached a confidential financial settlement with
the family of 59-year-old Mario Reyes, a construction worker struck and
killed early on March 14 by Stallworth, driving drunk in his black 2005
Bentley.
Stallworth had faced 15 years in prison for his DUI manslaughter
conviction. After his release from jail, he must serve two years of
house arrest and spend eight years on probation. The house arrest
provisions will allow him to resume his football career, his attorney said.
And that's in 2009. Penalties were much lighter 40 years ago.

that is your position in life, then anything goes.
