Former Tide WR Henry Ruggs involved in fatal car accident, to be charged with DUI resulting in death

Possibly burning to death would be horrible way to go. Such a messed up situation.

 

Damn what a horrible situation.

 

Uber

 

I didnt know about the car service so I did some Googling. That is a great program and this article digs a little deeper into why the players didnt want it to be "free". You wonder if Ruggs was "just a couple minutes from home" and made an incredibly poor decision.

More NFL Players Use Special Car Service When Hitting The Town But Privacy Issue Lingers

 

God rest the other driver's soul.

 

Took a life because of pure stupidity, no excuse for that, just terrible!

Take a look at his license tag. It will be a ‘double on 3’ in the big house, the boyz are gonna like him.

Hope he spends at least 10+ years. That is the absolute minimum for something like this. I hate that people (particularly people of means) often actually get off relatively light for this crime, even more crazy that some unfortunates spend much longer in prison for mere “possession”, and yet some people get off with nothing for DUI homicide.

 

That sucks.......

 

Now Alabama fans can’t taunt us about having ex players who are murderers.

 

Too soon!

 

Why millionaires choose to drive drunk when money is no issue is just impossible to comprehend. Not to say that the average Joe has a justifiable reason to but one luxury I would take advantage of if I were a millionaire is not having to drive myself in any number of stressful or bad situations like congested events or any night in the town drinking.

 

LOL, 90/hr is a dealbreker to some?

 

“Prosecutor Eric Bauman said Wednesday that Ruggs was traveling at 156 miles per hour about 2 seconds before the fatal crash, with a blood alcohol level more than twice the legal limit.”

Throw the book at him!

 

I know that it isn't germane to this discussion about a tragic and unnecessary loss of someone's life, but that does not appear to be a Toyota Rav/4 in that picture. That is almost certainly an older Prius in that photo.

 

I thought the same thing when I first saw the picture.

 

NFL money can’t buy happiness, but it can buy a good attorney.

 

Terrible

You think these Players will learn their lesson? Or are they going to forget about it after a few months?

 

My company partners with the community service program with the court system here in NC. I was stunned when I first started to find out that 24 hours of community service basically sweeps a DUI away. 3 days. That's it. Pay the fine and never spend a minute in jail.
