Driver In Fatal Connecticut Crash Sues Victim's Parents

Driver In Fatal Connecticut Crash Sues Victim's Parents

Connecticut driver is suing the parents of Mathew Kenney, after he struck and killed the boy with his car.

Wow! This guy has a lot of nerve.

David Weaving, currently serving a 10-year manslaughter sentence for striking and killing 14-year-old Matthew Kenney (pictured above) while driving 83 mph in a 45-mph zone, is suing the victims parents for allowing their son to ride his bike in the street without his helmet.

We thought suing McDonalds for coffee being too hot was silly, but this takes the cake for the most ignorant, repulsive, and blatantly delusional abuse of the United States civil court in recent memory.

The convict responded with the suit several months after the victim’s parents sued the 48-year-old driver for more than $15,000 in damages, saying he’s endured “great mental and emotional pain and suffering” and the loss of his “capacity to carry on in life’s activities.”

We hate to break it to you, David, but that is kind of the point of prison. You lost you’re right to carry on those activities when you committed manslaughter.

Although not charged with drunken driving, Weaving has 5 drunken driving arrests and 4 convictions on record, which begs the question: Why was he still allowed to drive in the first place?

This is the most ridiculous, but saddest thing we have read in a long time. We wish the victim’s family the best as they deal with not only their tremendous loss, but this ludicrous law suit against them.
