You're right, my comment should have been directed at Hendy Hawk...apologies.

And I'm not the one that has a ton of posts in this thread.
Twister was the argumentative one with a bunch of posts.
I agreed with him that he was found guilty but in reality he did not answer Aurora's question

Why press for answers?

Let’s move on.

It’s a sad tragic situation all the way around.

Can't disagree with you. As I said in post 161 Twister was the one getting his panty's in a bunch and multiple posts being argumentative with Aurora. I just asked for him to answer Aurora's question.

What's with the "let it go" lecture directed at me? 37 posts after the verdict was entered with numerous people "chiming in" with their opinions . . . then I posted last night. And I'm the one who needs to "let it go?" Give me a freaking break.

I didn't raise the issue. I'm responding to others. Plenty of people are castigating McCaffrey for fighting the charge in court by pleading "not guilty" and supposedly not taking responsibility.

He was sober. He wasn't on his phone. There was no evidence of speeding. The pedestrian "ran" in front of McCaffrey's car after being waved into the crosswalk by another vehicle.

Testimony at trial suggested that McCaffrey's ability to see the pedestrian was inhibited by a mail truck.

I'm not commenting on whether I agree with the trial judge's conclusion. I'm commenting on the criticism of McCaffrey for exercising his right to defend himself under a set of circumstances that were largely not in dispute. This is definitely one where I see two sides to the argument.
