Wow driving while high, suspended license, also has an open DWI case. That’s insanely irresponsible and reckless.

Bury him under the jail.

Everybody always rushing around driving like maniacs go slow. What’s the freaking rush?

Such a horrible situation. My condolences to the family of the baby and the nanny :(. While driving I always see people hotboxing. It’s criminal that the authorities have not come down on this. Impairment is impairment whether alcohol, weed or hard drugs. What you do it home is your business, but if you step out, you are putting others at risk like this unfortunate incident. 😔

DMV needs to look into how these certain people are getting their license because they don’t follow any rules of the road!!!
