    But these “dumb rich assholes” showed absolutely not one speck of remorse with many of them not even showing up to their trials if I recall correctly. “Accidentally” killing someone and not changing your behavior at all shows that the life had no value and they would do it again if put in a similar situation.

    Why should someone exposing these “accidental” killers feel remorse when the killers don’t and get not one single consequence at all because of daddy’s money?

      That’s just factually incorrect. Whether you believe their statements of remorse and sometimes statements of trauma is something else, but they showed lots of remorse…

      The rest of what you say is based on that first false premise so I wonder if you’ll change that opinion when shown what you based it on was wrong…

      And don’t get me wrong, I don’t have sympathy for these people. But to claim that this group of richer assholes got preferential treatment over this other rich asshole is silly if you’re willing to look at the facts and the sentence justifications…
