Breathtaking in its Inhumanity

Arrington, 27, was convicted of two counts of aggravated DUI and negligent homicide in L'Ecuyer's death. At the time she hit the cyclist, Arrington was driving on a suspended license for a previous DUI conviction. Arrington could have received as little as four years behind bars for the conviction, if not for a recorded conversation Superior Court Judge Michael Cruikshank called "breathtaking in its inhumanity."

The telephone conversation, recorded been Arrington and a male friend a week after L'Ecuyer's death, featured her talking and laughing about the crash. The man in the recording said Arrington should get a "medal and a f**king parade" for taking out a "tree hugger, a bicyclist, a Frenchman and a gay guy all in one shot." He then said he knew it was "a terrible thing to say" but Arrington laughed and responded, "No, It's not." (source)

It's amazing the cruelty that some people will say just for a laugh. I think the guy who said it has some very serious personal issues that he has to deal with. Maybe with ten years in prison to think about it, Arrington (the driver who killed the man) will have some time to think about it. As for her "male friend", what goes around comes around, my friend.
