Good.

good bastard deserves what ever he gets.

Throw him in the chamber.

It's probably not a good thing that he was charged with murder. Its going to be very hard for a jury to convict him of murder whereas it would be a slam dunk with vehicular manslaughter.

 

[FortyFour]

So he is not eligible for the death penalty?

Gallo could receive almost 55 years to life in prison if convicted of all charges, Rackauckas said.

Really? Knowing Cali he'd get 5 years, I think he desereves the DP personally.

imo he is going to end up just getting convicted of the non murder felonies, and still get 20+ years, but vehicular manslaughter along with the others would have gotten him life

 

[C.L.258]

its just really sad to know that a 22 year old just DIED. Imagine what he might of been able to accomplish

 

[KandKCards]

The article says he violated probation, and the punishment was to extend his probation through 2010? WTF :!: :!:
The punishment he got for his first DUI shows exactly why people still do it; 2 days in jail and $1300. Are you kidding? The mandatory punishment needs to be increased and be extremely severe. That's the only way this crap is ever going to slow down. Multiple people I know have been killed this same way. It's absolutely disgusting.

well if oj simpson gets 33 years for stealing a football, who knows what you get for actually killing someone

THUG...

I think this guy is going to get the book thrown at him. I don't think a jury will have a problem finding him guilty of murder when he was driving with a suspended license and 3 times the legal limit.

 

[sportscardtheory]

Yes, this guy messed. Yes, people died. No, I don't condone driving drunk. But do people really think this guy deserves the freaking death penalty for this??? This was not pre-meditated. This is a terrible thing that happened to all involved, but by no means does this man deserve the death penalty. I will not be giving a response to anyone who disagrees, I just don't want to get into it. But this is my opinion.

Yes,

He made the decision to get in that car drunk knowing he was impaired and on a suspended license.

This was no "accident".

If he gets out he'll just do it again, he's 22 and has 2-3 previous DUI's before this, either DP or locked up for life.

 

[J.O.]

forget about adenhart having a bright "baseball" future ahead of him. He was 22, he had his whole life ahead of him, and it was taken away. You don't wish ill upon anyone, but isn't it unfair that someone obeys the law and dies, and someone breaks the law and survives? (the drunk driver didn't die, while the 3/4 innocent passengers in the girl's car did.)

Throw him in the chamber.

That way the tax payers can pay for his life? No, death penalty.

I wish there was an island to send all of the criminals who recieved life sentences to. Kind of like the movie Kurt Russel played in. Tax payers shouldn't have to keep these losers up.
