Camblos’ Selective Prosecution

Camblos said he didn’t prosecute the woman who killed the Deane family in a car wreck because it was an accident, so how come he’s charging a truck driver with involuntary manslaughter for doing precisely the same thing?

    …so how come…?

    The first had ties to UVA. The other was just a working guy. Different rules and standards for the privileged.

    I’m no fan of J. Camblos, but if I recall correctly the factor for not charging the UVA student was b/c of a “mutant bee” that was in the floor board of the car. The truck driver was going too fast according to the news accounts I have read. I don’t recall if the student was speeding.

    I expect the driver of the truck could have found a mutant pissant in his cab if he had been aware of the legal precedent set by the discovery of the “mutant bee”. I keep a carcass of a mutant wasp in my car against the possibility of need.

    A picture of the “mutant bee” appeared in last week’s Hook. It was about the size of a firefly.
