I Killed YOU!

On March 14th, Donte Stallworth a Wide Reciever for the Cleveland Browns hit a man with his car and ended up killing him. He was reportedly trying to beat a red light and came around a parked car, then struck the man before the intersection. This would seem like an offense that would warrant charges being filed or some sort of discipline being taken immediately. But no charges have been filed, and Stallworth is apparently cooperating with authorities. Stallworth was reportedly speeding, going 10mph faster than the speed limit, and flashed his lights before he hit the man to warn him he was coming. Is this supposed to get Stallworth off the hook. Like what is Stallworths defense here? "Well i flashed my lights right before i ran him over going 85kmh, he knew i was coming for him". If Stallworth had enough time to flash his lights, meaning he clearly saw the guy, couldnt he have stopped...or even swirved, i mean it was like 7am, and since there were no witnesses, im guessing the roads were pretty dam empty. Stallworth has had a blood sample taken to look for drugs or alcohol, and as of yet there is no official result but someone close to the investigation has apparently said Stallworth was drunk. Apparently authorities are awaiting word of the blood test before filing charges. Is this really necessary, he was speeding and killed a guy, sounds like enough for me. Dont wait for blood test results, just charge him now, and if he was under the influence, slap a few more charges on him. If this turns out to be one of those cases where he gets off because hes an athlete, i'll be pissed. I mean if you or i hit a guy and killed him, drunk or not, im pretty sure we'd be in big time shit. I bet Stallworth doesnt even go to jail for this. Now in his defense, the guy wasnt crossing at the desginated crosswalk, but i mean, if Stallworth is watching the road and paying attention, its pretty obvious when a human being is in front of you. Yes i suppose the other man is somewhat at fault, but just because he flashed his lights and the guy was 15 feet from the crosswalk, doesnt mean Stallworth should get away with this. Aren't you taught to approach intersections cautiously and look both ways anyway? The fact that he is grieving over this and is sorry for the dudes family is irrelevant, i mean, how is he supposed to act, happy and joyful? of course not and if he did, then he has bigger problems i would think. Anyways, im sure you know how i feel about this by now. Stallworth needs to go to jail,and be treated like any other human being, not some star athlete. Regardless of drugs or alcohol, he killed someone, accident or not, the guy is dead, and not coming back. So Mr. Stallworth, go to prison, share a cell with a half of the Cincinati Bengals, say hi to Mike Vick as he walks past you heading towards soon to be freedom, keep a bed warm for Pacman Jones, and just be patient, no doubt some of your NFL buddies will be joining you on DUI or assault charges in the very near future. While you wait, you can talk pigskin with OJ. God, it just never ends in the National Felon League *cough* excuse me, National Football league.
