I think I read that the truck was spun around 360, but I'm not 100%.

Talk about bad luck. First, some drunk bitch rear ends you on your way to work at 2:30 in the morning. Then, you end up impaled by the fricking guardrail. Just awful...

You can bet that her defense attorney is going to try to blame the death on the 60 year old, obsolete, inadequate and defective guardrail design.

Well I would say the victim's family has a suit against the Causeway at the very least. Guard rails aren't supposed to separate and impale people obviously. The whole thing is certainly the drunk bitch's fault but you can bet the Causeway will get sued at some point.

Right. It's not like the Causeway Commission doesn't know there's a problem. In their defense, at least they've done design tests and are raising tolls to move forward on their new rail project. But I think you're correct, they'll probably get sued.

Just mind blowing. I was arrested in 2009 for possession of marijuana and had my license suspended for 6 months. Meanwhile, my buddy gets a DUI and only gets his license suspended for 90 days.

So backwards.

Yes they always find a way to extend/raise the tolls. I drive it daily and every few weeks they blow money on some other dumb shite like a sign every 10th of a mile. 240 mile marker signs in each direction . Not to mention new blinking lights and bullshite on top of cones everwhere you look. They bought those crash barrier trucks to protect workers then left them parked last year when that worked got killed... a-hole organization.

The best part about the mileage markers is that whoever's brother-in-law installed them in the first place will probably get to remove them, and then re-install them on the new guardrails.

getting drunk and killing people does very little time in jail, if that.

Don't shoot some one you want to kill, just get drunk, and accidentally run them over. Vehicular manslaughter sentences are a joke

I know 3 people now, as i found out another guy i went to HS with killed some one drunk recently, that did 1 night in jail, and 2 others who did that night in jail for being wasted and killing a construction worker.

Other killed some one walking on a sidewalk. They did that night in jail, bonded out(mall bonds), and then got probation.

It's f'in amazing and sad

The people who invented the pipe-top guardrails just lost a few hundred million dollar lawsuit IIRC

MADD needs to be raising hell about how that occurs in our court system, not trying to lower BAC levels and close drive-thru daiquiri stands.

Pretty much, yes. Jefferson Parish knows St. Tammany Parish is gonna revoke bond and Jefferson Parish isn't out the "3 hots and a cot" expense. It sucks for St. Tammany Parish but that's the way it is.
It happens all the time.

I know this isn't Florida but in the last 3 - 4 months, they have sent some nice looking 20 somethings to prison for 5 -10 years for DUI manslaughter. Hoping Louisiana does the same in this case.

I would love to see this for habitual alchys.

The 2 guys who hit construction workers had already had a dwi, before the age of 20. But, back then, lawyers could get them stopped before they went to state, now they go immediately. But it still hasn't made for harsh sentences.

It's one thing for some one to make a bad decision, and an accident happens, it's another for habitual drunk drivers to finally hit pay dirt, and walk away scott free.

------------------------------------------------------------

All JP could have done was increase her bond amount. They're not going to hold someone without bond on a vehicular homicide charge. People bond out on Manslaughter and 2nd Degree Murder charges. Bond is set to assure your appearance in court, not as a pre-trial punishment before you have the opportunity for your day in court.

Her St Tammany judge may/will revoke the bond he/she set because Matte likely violated the conditions of her release on bond, of which surely no drinking and driving was one.

This isn't a case of trying to avoid paying for "3 hots and a cot".

Does this girl have a court appearance in St Tammany today?
There are news crews in the parking lot waiting to take somebody's picture.
