Progressive Vermont Sets Drugged Driver, Who Killed a Man, Virtually Free

WCAX-

The wreck happened last September in Norwich and police say the driver of the car was high on marijuana at the time. It’s a case that puts drugged-driving enforcement in the spotlight.

Keith Cushman was originally charged with two felonies that could have sent him to jail for up to 30 years. But Tuesday, he walked out of court, free to go home, after pleading guilty to misdemeanors, avoiding jail time altogether. Family members of the victim say it’s insane.

  1. If they were all in the same Truck..Then they all share the same

    responsibility . Just like when We were Young and Dumb and went Bar

    Hopping and rode in one Car with everyone Drinking .

    Definitely need a Roadside Pot Tester though.

  2. Had he been under the influence of alcohol, he would be serving the full 30 years, but because it was marijuana (the preferred drug of progressives and libertarians), he goes free. Yup, insane.

  3. Same logic being applied to fireworks. When I was a kid in NY they were illegal – “You’ll blow your face off” now that the state is running out of revenue streams, its okay to blow your face off as long as they get a few dollars more to urinate away on some other dead-end project. Sure they’re looking to keep us safe. cough, cough.
