He's just been sentenced to 16 years. I'm sure he'll be appealing. :shifty: The Judge was extra ticked off that he initially lied to investigators and tried to let his daughter take the full fall.

"Wayne County President Judge Ray Hamill branded his behavior 'reckless, stupid and selfish.'

"He blasted him asking: 'What kind of father does this?'"

"Hamill, his voice rising, repeatedly called Ware's actions 'preventable, irresponsible, reckless, stupid and selfish' and said he had failed as a father.

"Ware's daughter acknowledged responsibility in juvenile court to vehicular homicide counts and was placed on indefinite probation. "​

Kind of an interesting case. I'll admit, I'm actually kind of glad the father got a big legal slap across the face for his actions. I doubt the sentence will stand up under appeal though. What do you guys think?
