These man children playing with their toys and what is the punishment, only 5 years? The victim's child, who will now be 7 has no mother for the rest of his life.

Here is the original story of the homicide https://www.oregonlive.com/crime/2023/09/street-racer-gets-5-year-prison-sentence-in-crash-that-killed-26-year-old-woman-waiting-at-portland-bus-stop.html

You'd get 5 years for trying to hold up a plaid pantry and not hurting anyone, but plow through a bus stop at godknowshowfast while street racing and cream a young mother and alter her child's life forever? 5 years. Appalling.

I was thinking about that too and couldn't remember, didn't Oregon pass a law about child support or was that somewhere else?
