It still blows my mind that he had the money and resources to arrange a private jet yet didn’t arrange a simple car/limo home.
The trial was over. The remorse does not come into play in terms of guilt. It comes into play during the sentencing and that is when the judge is making an assessment.I think the only thing questioned more is the insanity
There are entire studies and books written on the subject so I am puzzled you claim they are usually not questioned on it.
Even assuming Muzzo was legit remorseful (and I mean for what he did, not that he got caught and is heading to prison) stuff like this effects peoples rights to fair impartial trials
The family is suing him.There was a story a while back that he wanted to give the family some money but said he couldn't because of a civil suit. Whatever happened to that civil suit? It would be nice if the family got some money (at the very least for the funeral expenses).
In a similar case.
"A lawyer representing the truck driver responsible for the deadly Humboldt Broncos bus crash says his client wants to stay in Canada once released from prison. Jaskirat Singh Sidhu was sentenced to eight years after pleading guilty to 29 counts of dangerous driving in the crash that killed 16 and injured 13 others.Oct. 29, 2020"
Brilliant mate! Absolutely brilliant!Guys I hate to break it to you, but laws are based on ethics, and ethics are based on what society believes is right and wrong.
The outcome of his mistake was horrible, but 10 of thousands of people (if not more), do this every day. He just happened to be one of the people where the action ending up having harsh consequences. The reality is, you can't keep him in jail for life. Impaired driving law is the most complex law in our society. He's basically been in jail since 2015 when the accident happened. It's been 6 years. There are people who have done far worse things (as far intent is concerned), that have gotten lighter sentences. Karla Homolka did 12 years for murdering 3 people for fuck sake. Don't get this confused, I'm not sympathetic for Muzzo, but you have to look at the case objectively.
The reality is, there's a much bigger problem that we keep hoping a few spot checks will fix and it just won't. Every fucking car should have a breathalyzer or they start thinking of a better way to tackle the problem. I don't know what the answer is, but fucking ride program is not the answer.
It wasn't a mistake dude...this is the 2nd time it happened...a mistake is someone who overestimated a turn and caused an accident...This is the problem right here. He didn't murder anyone. He made a mistake that hundreds of thousand do in this country every day. His happened to have a catastrophic outcome, and don't let the outcome effect your ability to make a non bias objective judgment. People just aren't thinking about this rationally.
We hear so much about Marco Muzzo. Why? Because he comes from a crazy rich family. Yet we here so little about Brady Robertson who wiped a mother and her 3 daughters.
There's a much bigger problem that people are refusing to acknowledge.
If by 2nd time you mean he had a previous DUI, thats not true.It wasn't a mistake dude...this is the 2nd time it happened...a mistake is someone who overestimated a turn and caused an accident...
Link:https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/marco-mu...granted-full-parole-1.5301289?cache=uhposhkobThe parole officer added that Muzzo had no prior criminal history, noting he did have several traffic violations on his driving record and was taken into police custody in 2012 due to public intoxication
Because they think they're okay to drive. One of the biggest problems about impaired driving, is once you get impaired, your ability to make proper choices it greatly reduced. That's one of the reasons it's such a complex law.It still blows my mind that he had the money and resources to arrange a private jet yet didn’t arrange a simple car/limo home.
Considering his past track record for impaired the punishment should have been consecutive life sentences.Guys I hate to break it to you, but laws are based on ethics, and ethics are based on what society believes is right and wrong.

His family is wealthy enough to hire him a full time chauffeur - so it really won't be tough on him.

I know there are shortcomings in the legislation, this is my opinion despite them.

The new hospital in vaughan features his name, just opened the same week as his full parole... coincidence ? Or what?
Yes, I mentioned that in my post. Does anybody know the status of the civil suit? Did they settled out of court maybe?The family is suing him.
we have a winner!!!!!!!!!!!Can't wait to hear some of these replies.
I'm putting the over/under on the number of replies at 48.5.
I am glad you dont feel that Muzzo is the victim here, truly.I'm not suggesting you should feel sorry him, but stop acting like because he has money this hasn't effect his life. The guy was about to get married so I'm sure this has put a major strain on his relationship. And yes he'll be able to uber or have someone drive him around, but it's not the same as being able to independently drives yourself when you need to. Don't get me wrong, I'm not confused who the victim is here, but people keep acting like because he comes from money this hasn't been hard on him.
He's different than most people for the simple fact that he's among the very few who are able to afford to take a private jet to Miami for a party. As for his wedding, it's just been postponed for a few years. He spent his time behind bars at the Beaver Creek prison in Gravenhurst. Fellow inmates describe bocce ball, mini putt, and barbeques with visiting family members. He was allowed conjugal visits with his fiancée. The institution has a number of two bedroom homes on the prison grounds for 72 hour visits.I'm not suggesting you should feel sorry him, but stop acting like because he has money this hasn't effect his life.

That’s the same prison where most people go that are convicted of a crime of this nature. Not his fault that’s the system Canada set up. There’s no question about it , coming from wealth will help ease the pain and stress. I’m simply suggesting he didn’t just ruined the victim’s family lives. He fucked his up pretty good and his family. He might have major guilt about this and think about it the rest of his life. I’m bet there’s almost no days go by for the rest of his life that this doesn’t hunt him.He's different than most people for the simple fact that he's among the very few who are able to afford to take a private jet to Miami for a party.

He'll also never have to apply for a job and tick off the box beside "do you have a criminal record." And his fiancée isn't going anywhere. Not with the amount of money he's got.

Cut the bullish out... once you break the law it’s not black or white my friend... he killed 4 people and that is murder like or not. By drinking and driving, you know the consequences of your action.This is the problem right here. He didn't murder anyone. He made a mistake that hundreds of thousand do in this country every day. His happened to have a catastrophic outcome, and don't let the outcome effect your ability to make a non bias objective judgment. People just aren't thinking about this rationally.
