I can’t believe how heartless and cold people have become. To leave someone they know that they have injured laying there like a piece of garbage should be prosecuted of murder or attempted murder not vehicular manslaughter. If the courts would do that you would see a lot less of this crap. FYI this is the 2nd friend that this has happened to. I’m so sick of our justice system slapping there dumb a** hands. I say when they leave someone to die because of their negligence they should have to render their own. Take a life and leave the scene that should require your life.
