re: Henry Ruggs will probably only face about 6 or 8 counts

Yeah that girl and her dog literally burned alive while conscious. Dude deserves the maximum.

However, I would like to see half his earnings over 50$/yr go to the victim's parents though along with doing the DUI killer speech circuit where he can tell his story and encourage youngn's to not do what he did.

In this awful alter reality of yours, if an individual went to work as a doctor, drunk, and killed someone by cutting their carotid artery while performing an appendectomy because he was too drunk to tell a neck from an abdomen, that guy should live a normal life of a doctor donating his salary and warning 1st year Med Students of the perils of drinking before an operation?
Getting to see his family. Not having to eat prison rations. Getting to sleep comfortably in his bed beside his lover? Never missing a graduation, wedding, birthday party, Holiday? Not having to wonder if Big Tony was coming back for a healthy, heaving, helping of thundercocking his a-hole?
You can see how this is stupid, yes?

Sub question: would you let anyone you loved get operated on by that Dr?

Ruggs deserves nothing less than the death penalty. He will not receive it due to the amount of bleeding heart liberals that have taken over this country however… He murdered another human being… He should not be allowed to enjoy life ever again…

Many posters want us Bama fans to defend Ruggs. It burns them up (obviously, no pun intended) that none have. He needs to go away for a very long time.

Are you trying to piss people off?

Because sympathizing with a dude that just murdered someone and calling his likely sentence "a lot" just doesnt seem right.

So just because she was childless that means he gets off in less time? Stupid.

unfortunately sometimes that stupid crap matters. It shouldnt but can

Judge not lest ye be judged. Christians sure do like to arbitrarily pick and choose when they will obey their own teachings. We may not like to admit it but deep down under the right conditions every human is capable of doing what Ruggs did and worse.

I know that's easy to shout in a mob but
while senseless, completely stupid and without
regard to human life, Ruggs did not plan to kill someone.
It was not premeditated, a requirement
for first-degree murder and had no prior criminal
history.
He WILL be given a prison sentence and all
wealth accumulated in his short NFL career taken by
lawyers and suits. Life as he knew it, is over
and will not come back.

This is the sad truth. He'll do enough time to warrant the crime. But, He'll be broke in more ways than one. As you said, life as he knew it will all become just a distant memory..

My thoughts and prayers go out to the victim's family.. but nothing that is done to H.Ruggs is going to ease their hurt or loss..

"Vengence is mine, sayeth the Lord!"

Where’d you go to law school?

At 22 years old I bet the guy plays in the NFL again. Our justice system is soft as hell right now.

I seriously doubt that the NFL wants the kind of bad publicity that would cause.

With that said, he may face 6-8 counts. But, if it he calls for a trial the prosecution will bring everything they can against the young man.. But, that would be a huge gamble for either side and most likely not one either side is willing to risk!
