Man Uses Web To Blast Parents Of Boy He Killed
from the that's-gonna-help dept
If you're trying to appear sympathetic and regretful for running over a 17-year-old boy, it probably doesn't seem like the smartest move to then trash the boy's parents online. However, according to this news report, that's exactly what this unnamed Japanese man did. He crossed over the center divide, while speeding, and ran over the boy, who was sitting on a stationary motorcycle. Then, during the trial, he posted comments to a website criticizing the boy's parents. Probably not the most sympathetic move.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
