Porn Watching Trucker Receives Prison Sentence in Vehicular Homicide Tragedy

Back in May I told you about the guilty plea to vehicular homicide charges of the porn-watching trucker who killed the Batavia, New York woman.  This afternoon, Ohio.com is reporting that the trucker, Thomas Wallace of Brook Park, Ohio has received a sentence of 3 to 9 years. 

Here's the story:

"An Ohio truck driver whose laptop computer was streaming pornography when his rig hit a disabled car on the New York State Thruway has been sentenced to three-to-nine years in prison for killing the other driver. Thomas Wallace of Brook Park, Ohio, pleaded guilty in May to second-degree manslaughter.

Authorities say [Mr. Wagner] slept no more than four of the 27 hours before the Dec. 12 crash that killed Julie Stratton, a 33-year-old mother of two.

The 45-year-old trucker tearfully apologized to the victim's family at Wednesday's sentencing. He had faced five to 15 years in prison.  Stratton hit a deer and her car was disabled in the passing lane shortly before Wallace's tractor-trailer ran into it from behind in Pembroke, 20 miles east of Buffalo."

My beloved daughter drove me to the garage to pick up her mother's car and as she drove away I watched her texting.  I went wild.  When her mother heard my report, the BSL went wild.  The electronic device she was using was shut down for a suitable length of time to deter any furhter distracted driving.  We seem to be proliferating ways to kill ourselves and others.
