My 32 year old son was killed in November, hit by a car as he was running across the street. According, to the police report he didn’t have the right away. I was told her speed was not a factor but, an eye witness stated she was speeding and was still continuing to drive until people started yelling at her to stop and that she just killed someone.
There were also, other eye witnesses stating she acted as if she didn’t care and was more worried about what was going to happen to her rather than the pedestrian that she hit and killed.
I’m so angry that if I type in my son’s name into a browser they have all his information… he was fatally killed in car accident from first to middle to last name. He is even on lawyers online pages as if they are representing us… but no where and I mean no where is the person’s name that hit and killed him…. My son was the victim and yet her name is protected while my son’s entire accident story is everywhere…
I’m angry, I’m frustrated and so confused how my son lost his life and she will go on with her life, with no charges, her speed that night was not taken into consideration even after eye witnesses… this makes me sick…

I’m so sorry about your son, @Tasha333. Your anger is completely understandable.
I’m just giving your thread a gentle bump - I’m sure someone will have thoughts to share.

My first thought was that the driver will get away with nothing in the end. Even if she comes out of this seemingly smelling of roses, she will have to live with herself, which as we all can discerne as adults can be in worse than anything. Some people call it Karma, but I can tell you people who hurt people without making reparation for wrongdoing have to face the consequences sooner or later. You will recall that consequences are the end results of your actions. But you are the important one here. Please keep yourself well, continue to live your blameless life, throw yourself into helping others and don’t stop loving and laughing. Keep your tears and sorrows and anxieties for the times when you commune with your maker and ask Him to sit with you at bad moments. Things have a way of working out. Some events that happen to us are just too big to put right by ourselves, and we can only do what we can and then we have to cling to something stronger than we are so that we don’t lose hope. Put one foot in front of the other and one day in some arena yet to be decided you will see how justice does get served. I will never forget the day when I was brooding about the various wrongs done to me, it suddenly occurred to me with a lightening jolt that all the time I spent doing this, I could have spent in loving communion with my husband who passed, or other loved ones. People who hurt people with dire consequences do need someone’s prayers if we are talking about charity, but the bereaved mother needs all the help she can get.

Thank you so much, I really needed to hear this. I’m so thankful for you at this very moment. I have been really struggling with the thought that she walks with no consequences but the way you broke things down really help me… I’ve stayed up a many nights crying, being angry and mad… I wanted to be the voice that my son could not.
I am so sorry for your loss …
