It was stupidity what they did, even though I feel absolutely horrible that this happened. The black guy should be charged for assault. However, he's not. What could be done is you sue his ass for wrongful death.

Wrongful death? I don't see how... the ONLY thing the black guy could get charged with is assault, and considering the fact that one of the two guys is holding a weapon, and the fact that the other guy approached him, it can be VERY easily ruled self-defense.

It's a shame the way everything turned out, but the black guy, as the way you tell the story, is absolutely not responsible in any way, shape, or form for what happened. It was just a terrible accident that could've been easily avoided if the actions of nearly everyone in the story had just been a little different (the friend, the victim, the black guy, and the driver all made 'bad judgement' calls, but in the end it was still an accident).

the black guy is not responsible for davids death, he did not directly or indirectly cause his death, at most he would get charged with assault causing bodily harm if david is still alive. think about it this way, if a gun store sells a gun to a black guy and the black guy goes out and kills some1 while robbing the person, so is the gun store indirectly responsible for the victims death? absolutely not, everything is too circumstantial in this case, its just coincidence/bad luck at its best. it can only be called as an accident, law does not involve emotions, what u r trying to charge the black guy and the woman is based on emotion. im not saying they both r innocent. and if according to u, david and his friend both indirectly caused davids death, why? because if they didnt go out that night to kick some1s ass, none of this would have happened, who can u blame? only their stupidity. and they brought a baseball bat with them to begin with, if david didnt get killed some1 else would have probably got killed instead. either case would have been devastating. p.s i dont know how the woman can just drive for a 100m after running david over, u cant possibly explain that unless she admits she was drunk at the time of accident.

pyrogenetix have put everything that i wanted to say at its best. u dont have to prove anything to anybody, u only have 1 chance at life, u r not suppose to take it for granted and act irresponsibly. what do u think happen with gangster and thugs? if u just keep ur cool, and be calm let the fucking clowns talk shit and smile at them for their stupidity, everything would work in ur favour. those dumb asses have nothing to lose, they WANT u to fight them, they WANT u to talk shit back and thats what give them the excuse and ignition source to fight u. if u fall into that shit and fight back then any subsequent consequence can only be ur fault.


This is a horrible story, but this guy's right it's circumstancial. The black guy does not deserve to be charged with manslaughter/murder, he did not realize him sucker punching the guy would lead to his death. Also, at first you made it sound like the black guy just ran up and punched him for no reason, but now it appears that he was inticed, so that make the case against him even worse.

The same is the case for the woman driver. First of all, it wasn't her fault two people were out fighting in the street to begin with. She swerved to AVOID hitting them and then accidently ran the other kid over. What else could she have done, not swerved to avoid the fighting kids and hit them instead? I actually feel sorry for her, it must be traumatizing to run someone over and cause their death.

I'm really sorry for your loss, but the fact is this was just a bad situation that your friends got themselves into which led to one of your friend's death, no one is directly responsible.

I'm bumping this really old blog with an update. I found out a couple weeks ago about "The black guy" who was involved in this story, he got into a car accident last February.

http://edmonton.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20090217/edm_chase_090217/20090217/?hub=EdmontonHome

He was running away from the cops in a stolen car, and he crashed it killing one of the people with him. This new article doesn't say the extent of his injuries but he's crippled from the neck down now. He was also the driver. I know this because a friend who knows him, seen him about a month ago in the hospital (He's still there).

Kinda messed up.. That's karma I guess? It's a shame another person had to die in the process though, because of Jason Francis.
Not bad for a cat toy.

Honestly, if I saw two guys heading to a bar with a baseball bat I would yell something too. Ok maybe not yell something, maybe I would have called the cops, I guess it was the guy's way of trying to keep order in the neighborhood? :S.


But really, that's just a story that's wrong on many many levels, I feel bad for everyone involved, it's a shame that someone got killed or hurt. =/

As tragic as this is (it's really, really fucking tragic), I can't help but get a nice sense of satisfaction about hearing he's paralyzed from the neck down. I hate irresponsible, reckless, asshole, criminal drivers more than anything in this world. While I don't feel he was completely responsible for the death in the OP it's obvious from this update that he is definitely a piece of shit who needs a nice, crippling reminder of the two lives he has taken.

I agree with not charging the women. At the very least she should have to go through a driver improvement program - but there's no justification in ruining her life over accidentally running over and killing somebody involved in a street fight.

It just goes to show how bad police work ultimately ended up in more innocent people hurt. I hope your sister is doing ok, seeing something like that can fuck you up for life.

I feel no remorse for the black guy being paralyzed.
