The video evidence will be made public long before there is a trial and it is highly doubtful there will be a trial unless the District Attorney is running for re-election or another office next November.
Happens fairly often here is the NYC area and suburbs. Younger person tries to park in one of those spaces with lines painted for them across the front of a shop. Accidentally hits the accelerator instead of brake and drives through the front window/entrance maiming someone or causing a death.
You sound so sure. The state is undergoing a complete change of the guard, names want to be made. with the state police taking over the investigation it will shift under State jurisdiction, not county.
I know Hingham very well. The video will be seen before a trial if there is a trial
Then you know he could have cut the wheel far more than he did or driven into burtons. He barely turned.
Anti-lock brakes have been mandatory in the US in all cars built since September 2012. Skid marks are not guaranteed to be there.
I can't tell how much you're joking, but it's true, young people crash into stores too (about 30% are aged 30 or below). Who knew there was a council researching and advocating on this topic, but the stats are quite staggering...
I did not level an accusation. I expressed skepticism at the reason for the accident as reported by the driver.
"Rein was charged with motor vehicle homicide by reckless operation and reckless operation of a motor vehicle during his arraignment in Hingham District Court and held on $100,000 bail."
Look, my only issue is the accuracy of what you said and repeated publicly and the lack of facts. Accuracy without editorialization. Getting the facts right is critical, especially when someone turns to saying something nefarious is going on and everything is not what it seems to be.I did not level an accusation. I expressed skepticism at the reason for the accident as reported by the driver.
As far as I'm concerned, and to be clear, this is my opinion, a citation for a DUI is the same as a thousand. There is simply NO EXCUSE for driving under the influence even ONCE. And repeat offenses of the type are pretty common, to the rate of one DD death every 50 minutes.
Thus, I simply expressed a belief based on the information on hand at the time and the existence of the (ok, single) DUI.
I STILL don't believe that the guy's foot got stuck, and I won't until it is unequivocally demonstrated that it did.
It’s rarely the first time driving under the influence that someone gets their first DUI.I did not level an accusation. I expressed skepticism at the reason for the accident as reported by the driver.

Yea it's like any crime. Hate the delusional people who say I never got a citation. That doesn't mean you aren't breaking the law. You just didn't get caught. An even stupider one was on Ricki Lake long ago. The people were like "We only get fines" You don't get fined for legal behavior!!
There is enough room to get about 35-45mph in that strip of parking lot. But the left hand turn just at the end of the strip can be easily made at 25-30mph without braking. Even doing 45 he could have turned sharper and crossed the patio area in front of the store at a much sharper path of travel.
It’s actually possible. I got into a minor fender bender because my shoelace got wrapped around the pedal. It didn’t cause me to accelerate, but I was unable to move my foot to the brake pedal. If I didn’t panic, I would’ve used my other foot to push the brake pedal.
I mean, this is entirely unsurprising. I had a friend who owned a computer store in town and a 16 year old girl crashed through his store window in her new Kia Soul. She'd only been driving for a few weeks, so inexperience was certainly the problem there. (He had a good sense of humor though. So after she wound up in the middle of his shop, he tapped on her window and asked her to roll it down. Then he simply said, "Sorry mam, but we don't have drive-thru service at this location.")I can't tell how much you're joking, but it's true, young people crash into stores too (about 30% are aged 30 or below).

I would counter with as the SUV hit the curb in excess of 50mph the front and rears would lock up and would initially leave a mark when they hit the ground. Not one person I know saw any marks. Once the video is released it will show it was not a simple accident. And having been to that apple store and neighboring stores a harder cut of the wheel would yielded a different result.
Are we sure they were going that fast? Last item I read, and to be fair I havent been keeping up on it, was that a witness estimated 60 MPH. Witnesses are unreliable at best, and estimating speed is horribly estimated by those who are not experts.
Not being a di¢k but Not sure who the “we” is.
Since you’ll be in the area, can you swing by the dunks down past SS Shore hospital and get me a dozen donuts and send them to me.
I've been looking for good food in that area, watch Christo's end up becoming my new favorite place.
