I am so sorry for you and your family's loss...how devastating.
It truly is unbelievable that someone with 7 DUI's could be out on the streets! I know someone that recently was charged with a DUI within five years of her first...and as much as I feel for her mother and her children, I do not agree that she should be out on the streets. They did take her license (I don't think they have decided when she will get it back), they impounded her car and she will never get it back (her mother had paid for it), she has to take classes and she is on probation. But the fact is that someone could have been injured or killed that night, and until people see that others are being punished harshly, it will mean nothing.
