Yup very sad. Wife and I were surprised the parents held up well on the news last night. Will be interesting to see how this plays out with a grieving family vs billionaire family.

Totally, and I can't even imagine how it'd feel. I hope the moron gets the book thrown at him.

There is no doubt in my mind that's the only logical thing to do. You are done for life, I have no idea how those parents will move on from this. Nothing to lose at this point.

When I first heard of the story on the radio, it was worded as if it was the grandfather (driving the kids) that was drunk
So sad ...
TheStar has a hard-on for this guy; they're digging deep into his background.

Not quite billion... But enough to be 45th-richest ... Well, his grandfather at least.

I hope this guy is done. I doubt it being in a wealthy family. Wealthy, not rich.

I wish they could confirm some details. That's a matter for the courts to decide. I agree...but the news always sheds some light on what happened. Right or wrong. It seems in situations like these if the deceased messed up they gloss over it and focus on other things. Easy in this case,the other guy was intoxicated.
Huge loss either way.

Beyond tragic. But i hate how the news takes advantage of this. Also I want to k ow what happened. They are glossing over it which unfortunately is making me think (for now) that grandad pulled into the intersection when he shouldn't have. Kipling has the stop sign ...not kriby. Only a two way stop. I wish they could confirm some details. Book or not that guy is mentally ruined for life.
I too couldn't help but think this too. Either way, this is extremely tragic, yet the parents are so composed on TV...kind of strange if you ask me. I would be completely torn apart and appearing on TV would be the last thing on my mind.

In the US I'd imagine (civil?) lawsuits would be filed already ..... But here? Nothing

3 little kids all gone. Wow.
If he goes to jail even for a short time prior to trial, the inmates will fuck him up.

Couldn't even begin to imagine how those parents feel right now. So sad
The news story I was reading was going balls out talking about what his family has done for the community...like they were trying to make him the victim here. I fucking hate the media.
Plus, with all of that money on his side he'll probably get off with a slap on the wrist.

Looking at the accident pics, it looks like the douche had the stop sign. Minivan got hit on the drivers side and the their car involved rear ended the drunk.

I looked at a few different angles(from news pics) and its not entirely clear... this is pure speculation. but based off that toronto star photo and where the van ended up and the drivers side door being hit, you can rule out a couple directions of travel. (1. van wasnt where that fire truck is 2. Van wasnt coming towards the picture taker ) two possible outcomes left after that stellar armchair analysis is the van having the stop sign(in front of mercedes) and pulled out when it shouldnt have. Or the van coming from the left and the jeep blowing the stop sign coming towards the camera. If we never hear the full details than the likely scenario is the van made an error. The news seems to do that(out of respect or whatever). And if the guy was impaired, easy to focus on that instead. As I said before(it shoudlnt need to be repeated but some people will be upset that Im focusing on accident details instead of the outcome). Its tragic either way.

Apparently on his way home from Vegas via private jet where he had his stag. Had blood alcohol level twice the limit and ran a stop sign before his SUV tboned the other vehicle.
