An 18 year old girl was killed by a texting drunk driver. He was just acquitted. He is rich.

102. A juror who was interviewed said the prosecution didn't address the issue

of the quality of the soundproofing inside the car -- which a defense witness spoke about. Another defense witness testified that, based on the mechanics, it was a "light hit." The juror also said that from the vantage point of the driver, you couldn't see that the front end on the right had been damaged.

So those were the reasons he cited for reasonable doubt about "leaving the scene." (I'm not arguing for any point of view here, just passing on the juror comments.)

There were also at least two other key witnesses; one who said the skateboard was partially in the road, and another who said the driver was driving only a few miles above the speed limit (as opposed to the defense claim of more than 15 above). And the juror said that one key prosecution witness changed his testimony between the grand jury and the actual trial.
