No one is shocked, it's just that some people here take any opportunity to bash the Miami idiosyncrasy.

I do not like to bash Miami as there are some things about the city which I like ..... but it does have some of the most brutal , barbaric , ignorant , irresponsible drivers in the entire country ... no doubt . Broward and Palm Beach County are not great either ... but certainly better than drivers in Miami .... I pray when ever I get on the Palmetto or I-95 in Dade County ... many of the hit and runs are by uninsured ghettoish teens with parents who have instilled no values in them . By the way not to trivialize the post .... but Coral Springs is a good 45 miles north of Miami and although this hit and run was terrible ... it is not the norm in Coral Springs .

She killed someone who could have been her own son - a son who happened to be on his way to school. And someone put a price on his life; she could afford to pay for it.

This really hurts a lot.

The world is not just. This country defends evil doers, that's for sure. Haven't you noticed that you have more rights when you become an evil doer? No one can touch you, and this country will make sure you remain in a safe environment - at least that's what they want to achieve.

On a lighter note, our prisons are more dangerous to criminals compared to those in Scandinavia. I heard inmates in Norwegian prisons get to play instruments, record music albums and have their own TV system. I'm not talking about dudes who didn't pay traffic tickets; just search for Varg Vikernes (Burzum).

In 1994 Vikernes was convicted of the murder of his Mayhem bandmate Øystein Aarseth, known by his stage name Euronymous. Vikernes was further convicted of four counts of arson involving the burnings of historic churches, and was sentenced to 21 years in prison. Having served almost 16 years of a 21-year prison sentence, Vikernes was released on parole in early 2009.[3][4]

Agree 100%. She is also butt-ugly, so I don't know what she's modeling exactly. I don't know what kind of human being can hit another human being in a car, then just drive off as if it's all good.
