why do the drunk drivers always survive but the innocent people pass. it’s so unfair 🥺
I wonder also.
So drunk their body is relaxed & doesn't tense up, possibly the reason.
God's giving him another chance to get his life right & do great things for others.
But really, IDK except God has a plan & we don't know what it is.
So true . My brother was killed by a drunk driver last year. The drunk only had a broken leg and his passenger was unscathed.
@@tiberiuskirk739 so sorry for your loss
@@belindahowell676hate this reasoning Everytime on this same question and same video
The baby was properly strapped in and was sitting behind her mom. That is very sad!! He needs to be in prison for life
And sounds like Mom may not even know yet. 😢
the mom f'd around and found out i guess
Well no place in the us does that.
You can tell Sheriff Judd is fed up with people’s bullshit
If you can’t afford a taxi, you can’t afford to drink. End of story.
Sadly, logic is beyond so many.
Every county in America needs a Sheriff like this fine man.
Or if you can't afford a taxi and you must drink, do it at home, that way you don't have to drive anywhere.
If you want to drink. Drink at Home.............never drive
Or call an Uber, Lyft or a cab !
Or call a damn Uber or a cab.
Absolutely right! I drink at home and never have to worry about driving. If I go out drinking I always get an uber home. I don't want to put others at risk for my bad decisions
That's part of the social problem. Alone.
as an alcoholic trying too recover I always drink at home or have a taxi/uber
1984. Williams AFB. Pilot in my squadron driving to work gets t-boned and killed by a drunk driver blowing through a stop sign. Left behind his lovely young wife and two small children. Drunk walked away with minor injuries. Still makes me feel sick to this day.
Life in prison is not even close to justice.
@pi-sx3mb….I’m sorry 😣 you lost such a good man💔🕊I’m sure he’s watching his beautiful grandchildren from above🥺
@@donnarupert4926 🙏 😔
Ouchey that is a very sad thing to have to endure. Look up.
wtf!!! p,o,s, drunk who cant handle his booze thinks he's cool I can just hear him saying IM FINE TO DRIVE I THINK 99% OF ALL PEOPLE ARE GUILTY OF IT I AM BUT I DIDNT SPEED AND HAD A LIMIT AND I NEVER HAD AN ISSUE SO SAD SORRY FOR YOUR BUD SO UNFAIR
@@johnnycash578 it's a disease..... Just like an octopus, if u feed it it GROWS.
💔 💔 please put this man in jail for the rest of his life.
Poor little baby, poor mother ... it is heartbraking. Rest in peace.
Sheriff Grady Judd ... you are well known around the world. Thank you so much for your service to the decent people of your community. God bless you. Greetings from Europe.
Prayers for this poor family.
Should get life in prison, no ifs. Nore buts
Probably get 10-15 serve 6-8.
But
Nah, capital punishment
He's going to have his Butt Welded for many years ...
No jurisdiction supports that.
he should be in prison for the rest of his life
Which is very likely.
@@jamallabarge2665 It's not likely at all. In Florida, DUI manslaughter is a second degree felony and punishable up to 15 years in prison. Now if they convict him on all of the charges and run the sentences consecutively, they he could go away longer.
Condolences to the family of Madeline Nichols and best wishes to the injured.
life no parole
Ok Stalin....
What bothers me is that the mother probably does not know about her daughter yet. I pray for all of them. This is such a heart breaking tragedy. The drunk should have "I KILLED A LITTLE GIRL" tattooed on his forehead.
I can’t even imagine what the poor mother is going to go through if she wakes up. God, please comfort her and rest in eternal peace beautiful little angel 🩷💐😔
I don’t live in Florida or drink Alcohol. I want to send my condolences to the families. Why do people still do this. Drink at home or call an Uber. Stop Driving Drunk….🤬🤬🤬
How about just avoid getting drunk to begin with, that is an option too. Why do people need to drink in excess? It will only make you do stupid things, like get behind the wheel will intoxicated. The people in this nation need to learn some self control. You can have a drink, just don't overdo it. You are not an exception to the rule. Get intoxicated and you will probably do some very foolish things; whether at home, or behind the wheel of the car, or wherever. How about just avoid it to begin with. Let's talk about that for a change. Telling them to stay home while drinking to excess isn't good either. How about tell them to learn some self control, and thus avoid terrible consequences.
Yes be like Russians who don't drink to excess.
@@sues3218beer can be like a drug addiction when it turns into alcoholism, beer is a narcotic. So even though our country's attitude towards beer or weed is that it's "fun" or makes a party good, people must be aware of how it can affect them. Their family history and mental health can make alcoholism more likely and anybody has to catch the warning signs and get help
@@Rectum_Rocketboost What does Russia have to do with anything?
@@TruthWillFreeYou what do u have to do with anything?
I do not drink and never did. But a DRUNK driver who was THREE TIMES over the legal limit AT NOON hit me...came out of nowhere off a side road and damn near killed me. This is something you never get over! was this driver hurt? NO...but then it seems the drunk never is. I STILL have issues because of this and more than likely always will!!! It is a real tragedy a CHILD was killed in this accident and in my estimation he should NEVER see the light of day again!!!
I don't think they'll like him for killing a 5 year old.
People aren't perfect we're all sinners only saved by God's grace through faith in yeshua Jesus Christ God's only begotten son and God in flesh. When accept Christ as lord our sins are forgiven wiped clean though daily repentance is a daily thing trying to walk right in God especially by walking in love and forgiveness towards others. Pedophiles and people who beat women and children and older people are hated in prison not really people like this guy. Which could be you if you're into drinking. That's what the bible says stay sober because the devil roams about seeking whom he may devour. That's reality same with drugs can lead to the same thing and opens up your life for real demonic attachments or demonic oppression or possession. That's reality
This IS a totally FABRICATED incident that DID NOT take place in real life, even though Sheriff Judd insinuates it's a real-life incident, where a REAL 5 year-old child was actually KILLED! SHAME on him!!!
Like him ?? What does that mean ??
@@mjd111he will feel the pain he caused that baby girl in jail. Prisoners often times will gang up on people with offenses against children .
If he has a conscience he'll never go to prison.😕
Uncalled for . 🙏 to the victims and families .
This Sheriff's reports are one of the very few reasons that I'll tune into FOX. 👍
I have no reason to watch Fascist Fox News. But I will watch this on UA-cam.
The Polk county sheriff's office has their own UA-cam channel.
Let me guess. You drink the CNN Kool-aid. Amirite@@tomniebrzydowski3759
Local channels are not the same as cable tv. How stupid to refuse to hear anything outside of your confirmation bias echo chamber.
@@Anna_Stetik Fox does not have Party approved Correct Speech for Allowed Thinking, we must not listen to it.
Prayers for this family for healing and their loss of the child.
You have a tuff job God bless you Sheriff . I appreciate your time to inform us,
I'm guessing with both her parents being in critical condition they have no idea what happened to their daughter
I've been told by an emergency nurse once that in cases like this, they try not telling the injured as much as possible until they are stable.
@@pep590 for the best; they may lose another patient ~ go into shock; stop healing :(
Give him life in prison. Disgusting
This happens wayyyy too often I lost 2 people to drunk drivers 😢 stop allowing drunk drivers to bond out! Let them sit in jail to think about the bad choice they made! Heartbreaking the mother and other passenger probably has no idea that baby is gone 🥺
He is going to wish he didn’t drive drunk when those prison doors slam shut. My heart goes out to the victims and the victims families.
These people don’t care.
Prison LOL he's probably released by now!
@@markrussell480 This is Florida, Not California.
@@richiestarks6163this sheriff sure demonstrates Florida is worse than
@@christyann1201 Good!
this place was nice to grow up in but now it is not safe to live in polk county or florida for that matter
I live in Florida. I dont usually lock my doors. And we are all well armed.
Florida is one of the safest states in the USA. Here are some facts about the great state of Florida:
#13 in Low Violent Crime Rate
#9 in Best States Overall
#13 in Crime & Corrections
#15 in Public Safety
These rankings are out of fifty states. We have some small room for improvement, but you can see why the immigration into Florida is so high from the crime ridden states like New York and California.
Drunk drivers are as unstable as a meth user can be.
Meth users and drunk drivers are as unstable as a Democrat voter.
GRADY FOR PRESIDENT 2024
He sure seems to be liking the limelight. Only Sheriff I see so often. Probably due to the corruptness of Florida
Oh the media will find a way to ruin his life and paint him as a fascist nazi
Yeah, I think he uses these cases a lot for his own personal celebrity and marketing to the public.
Anybody's better than Trump.
@@Colin12475 why do you hate the orange man? You rather have people like Biden and Obama tun this country to the ground?
If that were my grandchild, he’d be safer in prison.
The drunk received emergency medical care! Should have been DENIED!
It's against the law. Stop letting your feelings dictate your thoughts
OMG! When will people learn that you can not drink and drive 😢
The usual suspect. They're either full of drugs or drunk...
The mustache and pussy beard are ridiculous!!
Honestly we should get rid of all 2 lane roads that travel in opposite directions without a barrier of some sort. This happens too often and is unnecessary. RIP lil girl
I’m going to be unpopular…my prayers are not only for the victims, but for that 23 year old man-child and his family. 😢
Very good report. To the point. Photo of the offender, and crime committed. It would be nice to see more reports such as this.
04:20 - Why the hell would that matter? Child is deceased, and both adults are fighting for their life.
Something ain't right with that reporter.
I agree. Dumb question of the year.
im 62 and now i have to leave the place i was born in grady can keep my family safe anymore it is not his fault to many people here now it is not safe anymore !
Nope.
God please bless this family and comfort them and also the first responders that went to the scene.
Released yet?
As sad as this is he is not a monster just a person who was impaired because alcohol not only impairs motor skills but impairs your thought process. So many people who are inebriated say the are fine when thats far from reality. A little one losing their life is soul crushing.
SOUNDS LIKE HE FELL ASLEEP.
Something needs to be done about alcohol consumption in this country! There are plenty of statistics pointing to the damage it causes and the only thing that separates it from other drugs is it’s legal !!!! Nothing more than legal drug use killing people every single day. 🤬
Making it illegal isn't going to stop criminals from drinking and driving.
a new Al Capone would love a new prohibition.
So sad. Prayers for the family.
Never fare.
Want to go out drinking then get a freaking Uber!!!!!!
A bigger question is why do bars/taverns/pubs have parking lots? Shouldn't they just have a pull thru lane for taxicabs or Ubers or sober drivers picking up drunks? They should never be a parking lot or any place nearby to park a car for a drunk to get into. Should bars be required to collect the automotive keys upon entering and the patron required to blow into a breathalyzer before serving alcohol? Then be required to blow again before the keys can be returned to the patron? Would this help to solve the problem of drunk driving? Or better yet, why do we have public places that serve alcohol? What purpose to society do they serve? Should there only be package stores so you can purchase and go home and drink? I guess the next logical question is why do people drink alcohol in the first place. Is it good for them? is it good for society in general? Deep thoughts.
You've gotta love Grady Judd! He shows the bad guy's face and shows no mercy for him.
yeah so people can form an opinion before a trial, insuring its not a fair one. LOVE IT !
WTF does it matter if the passenger was the little girl's father or not???? These so called "journalists" are ridiculous!
Right!?
Seriously, no she didn't ask that. Because that question didn't have any revelance to this avoidable tragedy!!! Journalists or Sensationalists....SMH
Thanks for your opinion!
So very sad my ❤ and 🙏🏼go out to the family 🥀😪
Heartbreaking.
Seek the death penalty please this DUI is getting outta hand
I’ve always Wished I had chosen to be a Paramedic for a living but in cases like this one - I’m not sure I would ever want to deal with an innocent little one being put to death in a totally unnecessary manner such as this. This man now has to live with this - FOREVER.. I would not want to be him..
When will drivers in US stop drinking and driving?! Can they be any more self-centered and reckless?
Life in prison 💯
Prayers for everyone effected 🙏 😢😢
affected
Another reason I hate having my kids on the road late at night. Too many a$$holes like this out late night/early morning.
🙏🙏🙏for family
He's not going to like the Big House.
Sheriff Grady Judd for President of USA. God Bless America!. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Couldn't pay me to live in this dump of a state......
I've said it before and I'll say it again. DUI should be a "Once And Done" conviction. It doesn't matter if it's alcohol, marijuana or drugs, a first time offense would require a total revocation of a driver's license. Driving is merely a privilege, not a right and DUI is already illegal in all 50 states. However, we have too may people who have obtained a DUI conviction and only have their license suspended and they reoffend. I've heard of individuals with as many as 9 DUI suspensions and they're are still able to drive. So it's time to make the penalties tougher by revoking that privilege after just one offense. In this specific case, this guy should be going to jail for the rest of his life for killing this child and badly injuring the parents.
Making the penalties tougher will take more dangerous people off the road. Some enhanced penalties would include jail time, substantial fines and even forfeiture of the vehicle. If any person convicted of a DUI is caught driving any vehicle with a revoked license it would be a felony charge and forfeiture of the vehicle, regardless of who owns the vehicle. This would make people think harder about loaning their vehicle to a friend or family member. Make the penalties harder on DUI and it will work.
Almost every other day Polk?!
Super sad.
He should be sentenced to life !/!/ There's no reason that baby should be dead ! 😢 my heart goes out to the family of the little baby. May the baby rest in peace .
This is why i insisted on learning to drive standard. I was at a party i wasn't supposed to be at, my companions got drunk, and I couldn't drive us home. While they were busy fighting over the car keys I chose life and called my uncle. Bless him, he got up, came after me, took the keys from them, drove everyone home, and the only thing he said to me was " this can stay between us, bc you made the right decision. If you're ever in trouble, calling me is the right decision." He probably should have told my parents, bc I was only 13, but I actually did learn a valuable lesson...always make sure you have a safe way to get home.
I wish something could be done with these two way roads. Maybe some kind of barrier. They tax us enough for it to be done 🤔
They tax us enough for our veterans to eat and our kids to not have a "lunch debt" too. They use it in their vacations instead
Prayers for the family
At 5 years old i was born without a. Face -arin Hanson
Lifted Truck! Murder Weapon!
Prayers for Madeline's family, may she rest in the Peace of our Lord.
3:49 Sorry, Sheriff, drinking & driving is not "stupidness." It's wanton disregard for human life. And spending 2 weeks or 20 years sitting in the naughty chair, so to speak, is not justice for wantonly taking the life of an innocent 5-year-old girl. Actual justice has a much steeper price.
once again proving alcohol is more dangerous than most illegal drugs :)
Uhm... nope.
@@corbindallas1954 make alcohol illegal again
Prayers to the family!
Unfortunately the justice system seems to get quite soft once it gets to the courts. Maybe if we started giving some actual consequences to crimes we'd see less of them. In our area, the police seem to have started taking a "why bother" attitude on many lower crimes and I'm sure it's that way in other places too.
The traffic is bad enough in Polk County without dealing with the aggressive drivers and impaired drivers and illegal uninsured drivers. This guy should never drive anything more than a moped if he ever gets out of jail.
Grady Judd for president!
As a tow truck operator it would make my knees weak to attend a call like this . Please be thoughful of others around you and please be responsible. I hope a full recovery of physical health to the parents of this beautiful life lost but they with never heal mentally.
I don't understand why people put their kids on the driver side. They are more vulnerable to accidents and you have to stand in traffic to put them in and get them out of the car.
So sad
When I was a young man, 63 years old now, I used to drink and drive. I cannot tell you how many times I would wake up the next morning and wonder how I got home and parked the car. I would look out the window and see my car perfectly parked in its usual place. I must have been one of the best drunk drivers in the country because I never got one DUI/DWI. I thought I could drive and drink, and as long as I stayed in my lane, I would be OK. Today, I am a recovered alcoholic, and every time the I see a video such as this, I get a "queasy" feeling in the pit of my stomach, KNOWING full well my mug shot could be on display as this drunk driver's picture was, or that I could have killed innocent people, including children. But for the Grace of God, I didn't have any accidents that could have resulted in a death or life-changing injury to innocent people or even to myself. I thank God, and have thanked Him a thousand times, that I hadn't ever hurt anybody due to driving drunk. People, please take it from me and DO NOT drink and drive. This man is going to prison! All you have to do is make THE decision to not drink and drive. MAKE THE DECISION before you even take that first sip of alcohol! Get a designated driver! DO NOT get into a car with a driver who has been drinking. Thank you for reading my statement. It was cathartic for me. God bless.🙏
No, he needs to be charged with murder, felonous assault, 2 counts attempted murder, gross physical injury, and a charge of "I don't give a f... about anyone else's safety and right to life.
So incredibly heartbreaking. These stories kill me.
Imagine Sheriff Judd being the Florida Governor?
Its always the same. A intoxicated driver gets involved in an injury accident, the individual(s) in the other car gets injured, possible killed, and the intoxicated driver walks away.
what's with the SH**TY sound quality with this sheriff? LMAO
Lock him up FOREVER Grady!! R.I.P. LIL ANGEL❤️❤️❤️😭
Condolences to the child's family. Rest in peace angel❤
Why not arrest the alcohol and spare more lives?
Sweet Father in Heaven…
GODBLESS♥️🙏♥️♥️♥️🙏
How very heartbreaking! 🙏
There's so much crime across America. Thanks for good men like this humble man. Thanks mr Judd. I'm not from Florida but I enjoy listening to this sheriff's reports. My sympathy goes out to the family. What a terrible loss over a drunk behind the wheel. Innocence lost. It is unexceptable.
These tragic stories never end 😢😢
Texas DWI laws are very strict also it’s not worth it . Stay home if you want to drink do not get behind the wheel
People still continue to do it no matter what. This will continue. I don't drink. Never liked the taste of beer.
I am a father and this is heartbreaking, thean will go away for a long time.
And he will have to love with the fact he killed a little girl for the rest of his time on this earth, that IMHO is worse than a life sentence
Utterly tragic and heartbreaking. Sincere condolences to, and prayers for, the family and friends. I hope the injured recover both physically and mentally. R.I.P. little one. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hope the prosecutors and judges will also provide the maximum punishment available by law. God bless that child's mother and give her comfort.
How sad
Emotional 😭. Condolences to the families and friends. Rip little angel 👼. Amen 🙏.
Huge props to Grady for one of the best reports and unabashed information sessions; VERY sad mom, passenger were critical and worst daughter, at the senseless hands of an irresponsible person.
