A girl I knew well, was killed by a drunk driver in Summit County, Colorado. He turned out to have many drunk-driving arrests and two DWI prior crashes. This was his first fatality, they said.
Not sure I favor a life sentence, but I'm close. Certainly 10+ years in the slammer so he can think things over.
Certainly take his license away for good when he gets out. But how do you keep him from getting behind the wheel anyway, like the guy in the OP did?

Stick with that line, and Massachusetts will lose its senior Senator.
You make a good argument.
