Is there any reason to believe his sentence was inconsistent with what non-rich kids get who are responsible for fatal car accidents involving alcohol?

For the record, the dumbasses who were hurt because they were riding in the back of a pickup truck bear some small measure of responsibility for *their* injuries.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I guess the question is which is worse?  100 days in jail or ten years probation?

The civil suit will be interesting.
Wrong.

Civil suits are never interesting.
To be fair, neither is criminal law.  Only once the illegitimate legal system is set aside and a system of Neilist judges is organized will justice be both proper and interesting.

Well actually she still has 5 years probation and has to live in specified facility.
