November 5, 20214 yr 19 minutes ago, Sgt Hulk said: What’s this story. I tried googling starfucker lol Quote After a few hours of barhopping with friends on the night of May 26, 2011, 23-year-old Gabrielle Nestande left Clive Bar on Rainey Street with her boyfriend, William Marchbanks, around midnight. Marchbanks drove her to his house, where, sometime after 12:30 a.m., Nestande climbed into her BMW and began the dark drive home along Exposition Boulevard. At the same time, 30-year-old Courtney Griffin was walking to her residence in Tarrytown alongside the same roadway after acting as the designated driver for a friend. She never made it home. Hit by a speeding vehicle, Griffin was sent sailing into a nearby driveway—and was left to die. The next day, when police questioned Nestande about her shattered windshield and whereabouts the night before, she was sober enough to ask for a lawyer. Quote In the annals of drunk-driving scandals in Austin, the Nestande case stands as a template for Lone Star DWI justice gone awry. Because police didn’t interview her until several hours after her car hit Griffin, they did not ascertain whether or not Nestande’s blood alcohol level had been sufficiently high to prove intoxication. Despite persuasive surveillance video showing Nestande stumbling in the bar (it could have been her high heels, claimed the defense), and eyewitness testimony from people who insisted she appeared drunk at Clive Bar, proof was fatally elusive for the prosecution. Then there was the matter of her trial by jury. Word from insiders who requested anonymity whispered that no jury would convict a young and attractive blonde, blue-eyed female first-time offender—a legislative aide, no less—despite the mountain of evidence against her, including pieces of clothing and skin tissue from Griffin on her car. Nestande was charged with intoxication manslaughter, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years. But due to lack of evidential proof, she was convicted for the lesser charge of criminally negligent homicide. https://www.austinmonthly.com/on-the-rocks/

The gf had no idea about the victim’s condition when she’s yelling a people to help Riggs first.

The only person here who is definitely shit is Ruggs. The gf is questionable but she was a passenger and not driving. The "holy shit thats ruggs" people likely didnt know about the girl still being in the car, and even if they did we obviously know it was too dangerous to attempt a rescue. That's a really shitty take.

November 5, 20214 yr 3 minutes ago, Deej said: Your wife isn't that innocent. Your dog, like every dog, is probably pretty innocent., This has a lot to do with the reaction (in addition to the cultural and comfort influences mentioned above). Pets are viewed as entirely dependent and innocent creatures, similar to young children. You would have seen a similar, but more intense, reaction shift if the 23-year-old's passenger had been her young child instead of her dog. It doesn't make the loss of her life less tragic, but people react more viscerally to the death of a "helpless and innocent" life in a situation like this. I only put that in quotes because in this situation the young lady obviously matches that description as well. But pets are considered by many as akin to children in that respect.

November 5, 20214 yr Given spiders past it makes sense he'd grow an attachment to dogs and would have that view point. He also said he feels sorry for the person who passed away as well but with his attachment to the dogs after his incident in life it makes sense he'd feel horrible for the dog.

Third, I can understand FEELING this way about dogs, akin to children, as Huckleberry points out. But articulating, upon reflection, it upsets you more that a dog died than an innocent woman in agony is utterly ridiculous. I’m not trying to be a jerk here, but I won’t back off that. He wasn't "just a dog" to me, he was my literal life support when my daughter tragically passed away. He was all I had and all he did was love. There were days I'd have breakdowns and he would comfort me. When my daughter passed away I had an actual mental breakdown. If you don't know what that's like, I hope you never do. I did the same when Prince (my pup) passed in May. He was my child, too. So I've lost my human daughter 14 years ago and my fur child of 15 years, 6 months ago in 4 days. It's a feeling I don't wish on anyone. I'm done with the argument. Edited November 6, 20214 yr by Spider2YBanana
