The fact that he survived a crash going 157 mph is just mind boggling. I could only imagine what that poor boy felt in his last moments. The driver should not have been allowed bail. That is GROSS criminal negligence.
The SUV was likely going about 80mph which would be like hitting a stopped SUV at 77mph which is consistent with the damage to the Camaro and the SUV. Luckily it was a Lincoln SUV and not a Toyota or everyone in the SUV would have died.
@@4nciite Lol what's wrong with toyotas? People pay good money for decade old forerunners
That is usually how it goes unfortunately...not always, but usually.
@@4nciite My toyota has been through 3 wrecks. saved my life. not sure what you’re driving but ok
@@4nciite Correct on the speed assumptions. If it was any body on frame SUV, all would have survived.
I feel for that mom. My gosh people need to be held accountable for their actions and not able to bond out after you kill someone or maim someone with criminal disregard for others lives.
His bond should've been set so that he would never be able to afford bonding out. Disgraceful.
Well manslaughter and murder are two completely different charges. He would and should be able to get a bond because his charges aren’t such that he intentionally commit a horrible crime. He has his rights as well and to legal counsel and bail. Now, maybe the system could be fixed to adjust the amount of that bond so it’s high enough to where it would be much more costly and less likely for him to get out but that’s a different story altogether. Just imagine one of ur children made a horrible mistake that hurt someone else unintentionally, u would want ur kid not being locked up until trial so u and ur family could best take care of ur child to protect them from serving life or most of their life over an accident no matter how bad it was.
@@benvasilinda9729 His actions where intentional and they cost a life. He intentionally disobeyed the speed limit. That was no accident. It was on purpose. The speed limit it there to protect the lives of others.
@@benvasilinda9729 stfu when you drink and you accelerate that fast your intention was to murder. Any damn fool can see that. He’s the damn fool too. He knew the consequences n he didn’t care. Legalities rights??? Yea yea who cares. You sound like an alcoholic

So heartbreaking. So sad for this mother’s loss. My heart goes to her
Manslaughter? It's MURDER! I drive a fast car, I drive it fast on a TRACK! Roads are not your personal racetrack people and your not as good a driver as you might belive. Track days are cheap and safe. Such a waste of life, my heart goes out to all those suffering because of this idiot. So unnecessary.
I was 28 when the cops came to my door to tell me my husband was dead. This beloved young man's family will forever feel pain, ptsd, and suffer. All so this dude can have fun in his camaro. POS! He should be held without bond!
how did he die
@@quakelewelynn5112 the drive ran into the back of the car and burst in flames
So sorry for your loss. I agree.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
@@sugarrbear7113 oh my god I'm so sorry to hear that. If you know where the killer lives I'd love a message with the address and see what god can do for you ;-)
This is unfathomable & heartbreaking. To lose your kid due to something so damn senseless. 😕 R.I.P Shandy.
Poor kid
Fix our justice system NOW!!
Yes poor baby. Praying for his mom.
Driving a car that goes that fast and then robbing a game at a game store? SELL you car you can't afford it. I'm so glad they caught you. May you reap what you have sown.
my heart goes out to that mother i know the pain all to well may god give you streaght
I have no words. This is murder, a reckless disregard for human life. He remade me of one of my students. I can’t imagine how this makes his family feel. This gut punched me. All my love to the family.
It's manslaugter. Which is what he was charged with. Look up the definition of murder. You people don't even think, just all emotion.
This happens everyday all over the country on America streets and highways. People driving like fools.
@@ambi3nttechHonestly, idc if it’s manslaughter or murder, both should be treated the same when it comes to the charges. This man was speeding, had no care for others lives, so even while this is technically manslaughter since he wasn’t trying to kill someone, his punishment should be treated as if it was.
It's sad that the criminal always gets away and victim's always loses their lives
19 years old!! Just 19 😢.Life is so unfair. Rest In Peace young man. You were suppose to make it home safe but an ignorant selfish man made the decision to drive reckless and change that. May he pay for his consequences.
Agreed
It would be nice to see the driver get a long sentence but, probably won't since he did get bond.
@Dennis McConnell When traveling at that high of a speed there is no way the driver can see and interpret what's in front of him fast enough to react. And let's face it this guy is no professional driver anyhow. Selfish self-serving action.
So sad for this Mother who raised such a beautiful son. RIP 🙏💔

Doubt he purposely rear ended that SUV. It was an accident.

@@JezusC Looks like she made better use of her words than you did. That's worth something.
The pain you hear in his moms voice is soul crushing 😭
Nothing will bring her baby back, but I hope her family can get justice and find peace.
157 damn miles?! That is just absolutely insane I am so sorry to this precious young man and his family 😞
Insane. There are a large number of cars today that are ridiculously quick. I have spent quite a bit of time on race tracks and know what that kind of speed means, It's not just a number on a dial. Turning or stopping at speed is very different than at highway speed. Going that speed on a public highway at night you are unlikely to be able to turn or stop if you see an obstacle in your lane, no matter what your eyes and instincts tell you. So here's a 22 year old kid who had a racecar fast car with street tires flying through the night just looking for a place to die.
@@Miata822 i feel liek there should be an age limit to someone being able to own a car like this. There are studies that show yound adults brains are still in adolescent phase until they are 25.
@@Miata822dont know what your point is, a toyota rav 4 can hit 120 mph with ease and deadly in a crash at that speed.
@@fitnesspoint2006 I didn't believe it so looked it up. Yes, a Rav4 can reach its electronically limited top speed of 119mph. That would be a terrible idea in any small SUV, even on an empty Autobahn. But in the time that it takes a Rav4 to go from 0-60 several popular electric cars could be going well over 100. Above about 120 the air has a much stronger influence on how a car handles. My car, not the fast model, can easily reach its 170mph electronic speed limiter. I would never go that fast on a public road. At anything over 140 turning, braking and changes in road grade can feel dramatically different and it is easy for an untrained driver to lose control. today there are a number of cars that can exceed 200mph. Stability control gives drivers a false sense of security but can be almost worse than useless at that speed. Cars that can reach freeway speed from a stoplight in 2 seconds or less and exceed the Rav4's top speed withing 6 seconds are a terrifying prospect in the hands on an eighteen year old. These cars are starting to enter the affordable used car market.
The driver must be held accountable
a lot of these manslaughter cases i see on youtube get house arrest or very little to no time
Uh yea, they charged him and he bailed out of jail. But as horrible as what he did, they have a guy in Houston that has hunted and murdered 3-4 people in cold blood and is free on bond too. I think killing someone by accident in a car while you are showing off is not as bad as being a career killer, but here we are.
Gee, ya think??🙄
Life in prison.
@@JetFire9 Why do people always compare unrelated instances? Tell that to his mom.
How did the guy driving at 157 mph not die but an innocent young man did . He destroyed a family forever ! He should never have gotten bailed out , this is outrageous ,a damn shame …it’s not fair at all . My sympathy & prayers to this young man’s family .🙏🏼
Because bail isn't a punishment, the punishment comes later.
Cars are much stronger in the front than rear that could be a factor in why he survived but still surprising going that fast
Front of the car has a lot of mass before the driver. The entire front of the car is a buffer before the driver. The back of an SUV is relatively unprotected. It also doesnt help that the fuel tank is located in the rear of the SUV around the location of the rear passenger seats. The force of the impact most likely trapped the victim and the vehicle burst into flames from the ruptured fuel tank.
Because he was drunk
He was going 157mph while the SUV was probably going under 100mph. When two car crash into each other, the faster one will deal greater damage while receiving less damage.
The pain never goes away. My heart breaks for this family and all who knew and loved him.
Nope he has a birthday every year
157 mph- 157 years in prison without parole!
157 mph on the highway would be like driving 87 mph trying to weave through parked cars. That is insane.
Lol. No its not at all. This is very sad, but don't be ridiculous.
going 157 is very fun though
@@rahilhussain487 it's fun until you're standing in front of a judge and the prosecutor is asking for 20yrs. Wonder how much fun is gonna be when they lock the cell door.
How much fun you think Henry Rugs is having bout now.
Some people are living in their own version of reality .He hasn't shedded any tears YET,
@@rahilhussain487 it’s fun but the body work is expensive
WHY is it almost always the case that the drunk driver of a fatal crash, walks away with a few scratches?
I'm sorry but how long do these senseless deaths be taken more seriously?
The sentence is usually really light too.
There needs to be far higher punishments for these little scumbags.
Was he drunk? I go 160 mph it’s fun af
Would he get out in 5-10 years or less?
@@SafeBets3
That was cocaine not alcohol.
There needs to be far higher punishments for most ALL CRIMINAL OFFENSES in the U.S. Our system is way too soft on people who end up being repeat offenders…AND ..when others see ppl get let go with just a slap on the wrist, that gives ppl no reason to not do it themselves. Make punishments stronger..see how many ppl keep doing what they’re doing. Not talking about drugs, nobody should be charged for willingly ingesting a substance. But gun offenses are perfect example and Chicago is just as perfect of an example. The prosecutor/States Attorney of Cook County is infamous for letting criminals off with just a slap on the wrist. And then they end up committing an even worse offense.
@@drehardin And the subset of people who do cocaine and not drink is exactly..... .03%....
WHY on earth was he able to bind out ???? This is despicable
My heart aches for this mother!!! My prayers go out to her.
A terrible loss of such a fine looking boy. I sincerely wish peace and comfort to this family and anyone who knows this family. Time will heal .....memories shall live on in your hearts...... Respect.
😢😢
yes but when is time going to slow these fools down? is time for these F@@!$ to take the pedal off from the medal if your choice is to die go ahead and drive off the Niagara Falls....but no here you are driving at the highest rate of speed among innocent human beings..."STOP FOOLISH MANEUVERINGS"

*I'm so sorry Shaundy! Please wrap your beautiful spirit around your Mommy!*
@Jeff P the teen..he was young
Freaking ridiculous the system allows the responsible individual to bond out, just so unfair for that poor family suffering, r.i.p to that young man
he def gne do sum time prolly his first offense type shid
He's white and over privileged. The system is set up for those types of whites.
No bail. Rot in jail.
He’s white. Of course.
@@rickmoran8644 it's about time!!! All have been Blk up until now. With rap sheets a mile long.
To the mother so sorry for your lost and He certainly did have a beautiful smile.... Such a huge loss. I could tell by looking at him that he would have been there for you for the rest of your life.. That big smile.Just shows a lot of love oh
Manslaughter? Aggravated assault? How about 1st degree murder? He chose to drive that fast.
I am so sorry for your loss Mom. He is a beautiful young man and I can tell he made you proud. The man who did this should not have been allowed to bond out!
Why did it take 2 weeks to arrest him?!?! My heart goes out to that poor mother💔
He's white duh
Hell..it only took hours to let him go on bond!!
They had to search the cars black box to get the speed , then the legalities.
The police literally arrested me for jumping up and down when I was just talking to a friend. No crime was committed. But I was handcuffed and stuffed in the back of a police car.
He probably was arrested for a DUI then posted bond. After the investigation they had enough info to charge him, most likely for vehicular manslaughter.
What do these judges be thinking giving people like this bail???? Its sick!
So sorry for this mother's loss. It's literally got me sick to my stomach. May her and her son be granted real justice, even though nothing can make this better.
She’s clearly still in shock, and hasn’t accepted the fact that her son is gone. I know this, because I too experienced it 19.5 years ago, when the Marines came to my home to notify me of my son’s overseas death. I took off work for one day, to pick up my vehicle from the dealership after an accident, and I just happened to be home. It is only because of the power of Jesus Christ, my hope, peace and joy was restored. Loosing a child forever changes you… especially, an exceptional one.
My prayers are with this mom.
🙏🏿🙏🏿❤️❤️

Ur son is a hero and died a heros death doing his best to protect us civilians. So thx u. Ur son is watching over u and standing by waiting for u to join him one day. God bless

Give thanks to our President and his tone deaf squad that got his ball sack in their hands...just sayinn
Another example of how the courts have two justice systems. One for Brown people and one for White people.
He’s white that’s how he bonded out so quickly.
90mph above the limit. What a fool, should be 2nd murder.😡😡😡
@@TyroneSettles Henry Ruggs the black Raider, killed a white girl in Las Vegas the exact same way and he bonded out too. So much for your dumb theory.
A car is a weapon, if you speed and cause injury or death, you should be held just as accountable as if you used a gun.
Such a preventable loss. Condolences for his family and hope his mom can find her way through.

2 weeks after the crash he was finally arrested? Like wtf?

@@jamilsuriel4406 you can still be placed under arrest even while you’re hospitalized.

My prayers go out to the family of the victim 🕊🙏🏾 That mom will forever miss her child there is no other pain.
Every time I hear a story like this where kids are killed I can't help but shed a tear. I can imagine the pain the parents feel and I pray I never have to bury 1 of my kids. I couldn't emotionally handle losing a child. I hope all parents grieving like this lady find some kind of closure and peace. Kids don't deserve to die or suffer from another persons choices.
At 157 mph on a public road I don’t see how it took 2 weeks for him to be arrested seriously.. I got arrested for a minor crash no deaths just my bf got injured and I paid for that with freedom..The system is so broken

He get charged for manslaughter, but the 17yr old who ran the red light also doing 100mph+ kills a woman in LA, gets 9months and probation because he's rich 🤔🤔
Bryce Abernathy in that car with an F U attitude enough to fly at that speed couldn't possibly be a spoiled, privileged dude, huh?
Killed someone, police wait two weeks to pick him up. Jesus...
He will use the defense of affluentism like the other guy
He looks really old for being 22yrs. Drugs & Alcohol
He was only "privileged" to be an idiot.
Those speeds go well with Darude-sandstorm
Why TF DO THEY LET PEOPLE WHO KILL SOMEONE OUT ON BOND..
SO THEY CAN MURDER SOMEONE ELSE!!🤬🤬🤬
The laws say they can let people out on bond. We have to fight to get these lenient laws changed. Maybe the bondsmen have deals with judges. I don't know.
I can't even comprehend to understand how she feels. My little sister is 19 and this just hit home. I tried hugging her but she's confused idk why. All jokes aside, My prayers goes out to his family.
He should not have had a bond😳, unbelievable !!He needs to be held accountable and pay big time for this tragedy.
Unfortunately, it's like that in a lot of countries with these accidents involving rich people. They pay and get released and then they bribe and get really small if any sentences.
Countries?? Texas is a state. And I'm not even in the "country". AND it's a Republican state. Why no comments from all the "it's the Democrats" state? Leaving the scene should "Trump" bonding out.
@@Dwightstjohn-fo8ki I'm talking about countries not colonies.
Poor people kill plenty of people.
Why did it take 2 weeks to get this person arrested? Driving at 157mph? He should get the same charge as if he killed someone while driving drunk in my opinion. Why are these cars made to be able to drive that fast when there are no speed limits that allow anyone to drive anywhere near that fast?
I'm thinking maybe he was either in the hospital or it took some time to find out how fast he was going.
I’m so sorry lady , R.I.P to the young man. He deserves justice
My condolences to you and your family.
rest in peace young man 🙏🏽🤎
Rip rich louzser
PEACE, blessings, and love to all affected🙏
Can't imagine... Prayers & Peace to his family and friends. 🙏🙏🙏💕💕🌸
Arrested 2 weeks after?! What happened to the 13 days before? He should have been arrested immediately! I don’t know the full details. This is absolutely ridiculous.
I agree, should've been immediate. But they had to do their investigation such as forensics and pulling the info from both cars computers (kinda like a black box). That way they have enough info to build a case and file charges.
He probably was arrested the night of the crash on a DUI then bonded out.
At minimum he'll get 10yrs for vehicular manslaughter and the family will go after him in a civil suit (bleed his AZZ dry!).
We all know why?!?
thats not a 22 year old... thats like at least 40 year old
I said that too! That’s a 45 year old man 👴
Absolutely horrible! My deepest sympathies to his family! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Why is it that the reckless driver is never the one who gets killed?!
I hope they put him away for a very long time. Then I hope the victim's family sues him for everything he has or ever makes.
Arrested him two weeks later !!! And still give him a bond boy I tell you they never wanted to lock him up 🤣😂
