He is a college grad, hard worker, well spoken fellow with no prior record then or since... He went to PRISON for 2 years and served 2 years probation! Just to add to the story He is black and I am white. We both met at our local bar after work today and saw the breaking news on espn.. He shared his story and we shook our heads in disbelief... We both agreed that Stallworth didn't intentionally kill the person, and I am sure he regets the decision to drive. That being said, I am saddened that my friend, was judged such, and Stallworth a to different standard.

Different situation altogether.
