I don't remember those 'other people' pretending it crashed accidentally when it was really on purpose (and that particular one was not on purpose). I also don't remember them pretending they didn't know where the crash scene was, or changing stuff at the scene to try to fool any investigators. I agree that the 'other incident' warrants consequences, but it was quite a lot different. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One incident involved a large amount of attempted deception. The other involved a stunt that they had applied for a waiver and been denied but did it anyway. Both clearly knew that what they were doing was wrong. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I clicked on the link, big smile for the camera. I wonder if he will be smiling when he drops the soap in the shower. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He got the sentence reduced somehow and was moved to a federal prison. He said it was almost as good as release when he would go outside and lay on a bench and spend hours looking at the stars in the sky. It was still life in a cage with no ability to do anything without being handled like a violent deadly risk. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
