Yeah, something like that.
Kid shouldn't be driving, it's evident the DMV or courts aren't doing enough.
I just can't fathom having such lack of remorse or self awareness to continually endanger lives after what he did. Kid needs help his parents evidently won't give.

I grew up with a kid that came from a good family. In his mother's eyes, he could do no wrong and he never received any kind of real punishment from his parents. He was a father at 15, and he ended up dropping out of school at 16. He's been in and out of jail/prison so many times, I've lost count.
My point, if parents don't instill discipline at home, someone else will eventually.
The kid that hit the Brambletts is obviously not getting any discipline at home. Otherwise, he would not be behind the wheel 4 months after getting baked and killing two people. He is 16 y/o and was driving a Jeep Laredo. Now he's driving a turbo Kia, still speeding, driving recklessly, and still getting high. He definitely lacks adult supervision, but I suspect that won't be the case for very much longer.

This is 100% accurate.

This is an assumption. Until the investigation and court case play out, how does anyone know for sure it was an accident? For all we know this person could have decided to intenionally ram into another car that night for whatever reason.
Point being the process needs to run its course before the situation can be called an accident with any certainty.

Because NO ONE is saying the kid should be behind the wheel. SOME are simply saying according to what's been posted, what's in the OP's link doesn't support your now time worn opinion. Unless you have first hand info or another source?
(1)The post first stated a second horrible event occurred, but the officer was unaware of his prior and simply gave him one citation (we're lead to believe for speeding)... so why do you automatically believe the parents should have know about this event? Did this arse-wipe of a kid tell them? Did someone back at the police station make them aware? Did you knock on their door and say hey what's up? Is it normal for parents to be called about their children's speeding tickets?
(2) The post then goes into the third horrible episode which which was only 26 hours later and resulted in two citations. One citation was for speeding and the other for reckless driving. There was anecdotal information about a marijuana smell and some bit's and pieces; however no charges resulted. There was also the tale of a cat, but also no charge or citation. We don't know who's car, who's pot, who's cat, and was it also an accident or intentional?
(3) The timeline then ends there .
It doesn't delve into what transpired next, how the parents reacted now, nor how they reacted before. . . Maybe they did nothing? Or maybe the kid may have just gotten back on the road and driving one of their cars. We were not told. He may only be allowed to go to school and straight back? They might be deluded enough, up until now, into thinking that first event was just a tragic mishap (and not an accident waiting to happen).
So unless you know more about the follow up, you don't know how the parents have reacted before or now.
They may have locked the kid away by now? They may have the key's? They may have done what my old man would have done? He might have just gotten back behind the wheel? They may have done nothing? They may have turned a complete blind eye? They may have not even been directly contacted by the police? Or maybe they've now gone to the police themselves to learn more?
Only thing we know for sure is you've self appointed yourself as their judge, jury, and executioner .

His two moms or whatever y’all are hinting at need to nut up and be parents. This kid absolutely should not be allowed to drive. He has learned nothing from killing the Brambletts.

I am not assuming anything concerning the "parents". I am simply saying, the kid did drugs, drove like a maniac, and killed two people. A few short months later, he's behind the wheel, doing the same things that caused the wreck. I doubt that the two latest incidents are the only one, either. Just the ones he got caught doing.
No reasonable "parent" would allow this kid to be driving this soon after that horrible day without extreme assurance that he has changed his ways. Defend his caregivers all you want, but it is very evident that he has not. He has a propensity of driving well over the speed limit, and is now driving a sports car. He tested positive for drugs after the wreck, and the cops found paraphernalia and drug residue, recently.
It does not matter that the "parents" were informed by the police, or not. They are charged with the care and upbringing of the young man, and should have a reasonable idea of knowing what he is doing. It is not difficult to look inside a car or personal space for evidence of ongoing drug use. Home drug testing kits are readily available. Apps like Life 360, inform parents of locations and speed of travel. It appears that the State is about to do what the "parents" did not.
Let me put it this way to all of the "parent" defenders. Imagine you drive you kid to school everyday. Drop him/her off outside of the school, then drive away. Your kid decides to skip school. The school informs you that your kid missed school. Kid promises not to do it anymore. You drop them off the next day, he/she skips again. Wash, rinse, repeat. Who is the State coming after for their truancy?

Parents take control Immediately.
We all make horrible mistakes. But it is the responsibility of authority to help us learn from them. To give you a personal example. I got a ticket in high school for going over the speed limit and passing in the turn lane. My parents response was to sell my car. I worked for 2 years to save to buy my own and had to pay my own insurance. It molded my character as much as any lesson they taught me. They hugged me and told me they loved me too much to let me kill my self or someone else.
And for all the defenders of the parents acting like this is a witch-hunt. Please stop. There are a great number of people (in Auburn) who know the choices this kid was making even before the Bramlett accident. His identity is well known yet you don’t hear anyone in Auburn saying “I never could have imagined him doing something like this”. And it’s not because of his nontypical nuclear family. You really don’t want the whole truth out. That is the last thing I will say about that subject.

I don’t usually pay attention to this shite but I got 4 downvotes for this and I’d like the pussies who did it to defend themselves. Sorry if he has two dads instead of two moms. I don’t rally give a frick who his parents are and their “nontraditonal” arrangement doesn’t change the fact that their 16 year old killed the Brambletts and he doesn’t seem to have learned from his mistakes.

The sexual orientation of Johnston Taylor’s guardians does not matter at all to any of us.
All of us want him off of our roads immediately.
The guardians need to take charge and make it happen.

You simply didn't like it. Then chose to rehash why your right (all-over-again) and most likely down voted me too. Big deal, get over it. You don't know what's going on in their house. And yet you continue to brand the parents with the very iron you have used upon their killer kid. All the while hiding behind a keyboard, the same way other little men hide beneath white hoods, or pranksters leave lighted bags of shite on door steps and run.
Once again: You don't know what's going on in their house and at best can only offer conjecture. I get your pain, I feel your hurt, and I also want this kid to pay dearly. Yes, it appears nothing appears to have made a change, but I also know enough to know good parents sometimes still end up with bad kids (despite their best efforts). And yes, whatever these parents may have done (or not done) up to 26 hours after episode two appears to have not made any difference. . . at all.

Ok I deserved that. But usual rant discussions don’t carry the weight this one does. I’m struggling to u swear and why this kid had another car that’s all. And yes that is %100 on the parents.
