Blood Car! Ryan Levin! Deluxe!

Blood Car Ryan Levin

Ryan LeVin, scion of a wealthy Chicago-area family, was driving his his $120,000 Porsche 911 Turbo in Fort Lauderdale, FL when it jumped a sidewalk in  and killed British businessmen as they walked to their beachside hotel Feb. 13, 2009. LeVin fled the scene., and later denied driving the speeding car and pinned the blame on a friend.

At the time of the crash, LeVin was on probation in Illinois for a 2006 case in which he had driven into a Chicago police officer and instigated a chase on the Kennedy Expressway. Court records show LeVin has more than 50 traffic violations and a long history of drug abuse.

LeVin's sentencing guidelines called for up to 45 years behind bars.

Instead. Ryan LeVin will spend two years under house arrest in his parents' oceanside condominium. In return he mommy and daddy will pay an undisclosed amount to his victim's families.

Ain't that sweet?


Nice parenting, wot. This sentence was so predictably outrageous, to just about everyone, that I'm not sure Ryan money alone could have pulled it off. Chicago? I think if one were to dig around, a  political component could be found.  I'm just saying.

I'd vote for 15 years on each count, served consecutively, fine the punk a couple mil for leaving the scene and lying to police, and suggest the widows seek the same money they just received in a civil suit.
Punk. Betcha the Broward judge was a Dem and if we looked deep, we could find a reason she should have been recused.

Except for the piss poor ending, I'm thinking the movie 'The Star Chamber' is a concept who's time has come.

Hey it worked for the Kennedys....
(BTW, this is unfortunately not too unusual down here in South Florida. Lots of little richer kids getting away with murder - literally....)

Reminds me of hulk hogans kid. Did a little jail time, but he didn't quite kill his victim.
Vigilanteism, anyone?
