He should go to prison for vehicular manslaughter at the very least, but he will not. What TS did was wrong and he has to live with that burden forever.

Yeah, I don't think he he'll be convicted of anything but I think he will lose the civil suit that's sure to follow.

wut?

a guy dressed in black (at night) who walks into his driving path, and it's "vehicular manslaughter"?

hell the guy who died almost got hit by 2 other cars (one of which was a lot higher than TS)

This is how I see it as well. I don't think he will do any sort of jail time at all, but it is my opinion that he sort of tried to buzz the tower at that kid and accidentally hit him. I know the kid was certainly an idiot for getting out and walking in harm's way, but you can't make me believe that Tony Stewart didn't see the kid.

What sucks the most is that the idiot cameraman follows the wrong car when he should've been focused on TS's car since obviously that was the one the kid was going after. Had he done that, we'd have a much better picture of what happened.

This really makes 0 sense...its racing...its a dangerous sport and they know this going into it...he left his car which is putting himself in danger...if you knew the vision that dirt track guys have its not very good due to the dirt being in the visor and what not...this was a pure accident due to poor choices from the other guy...What exactly did TS do...he was driving around on the track under caution at caution speed...and the guy that wrecked was more worried about pointing at the guy that wrecked him putting him in dangers way...
