This is trouble.

Uh-Oh

Yeah, Senser is a really good guy but the kid who was killed was a really good kid by all accounts. He worked in a restaurant as a cook and this was his day off. Apparently he stopped in to make sure everything was going good at work and ran out of gas on his way home. Very sad all around.

Don't wanna come to any conclusions before ay info is released, but doesn't sound good. I hope he had nothign to do with it. The whole no-speaking thing raises flags. yeah, you gotta prove it, but by not speaking since you know there's no proof, that means you're trying to win by a technicality, not because you didn't do it.

It's going to turn a lot of people off the fact that they are wealthy, they hid the car in the garage and called their lawyer and are not saying a word.

Right now, they look guilty to me and worse, they are using their wealth to escape justice. Someone has to pay for this kids death.

For sure. I just wanna hold judgement until the facts are known. Not letting the guy off on murder or anything, just wanna know. I really hope there wer esome odd circumstances leading to this. Joe should know better.

Innocent until proven guilty.

There are no winner here. Regardless of who was driving, Joe would be guilty of negligence, since he is the owner of the vehicle.

The sad part is no matter who was driving, the man is still dead.

I am not an attorney but I did just watch a Holiday Inn Express commercial but I think you were a bit vague on the facts that you posted.

What he could potentially be held accountable for would have to fall under the term "Vicarious Liability" And that would only kick in if he either knew the person using his vehicle was unsafe, such as having no license, being under age, having certain driving convictions, or that the car was defective in some way like faulty brakes, steering etc and he loaned it any way. Some or all of that may have happened but unless you have another statute that differs in the state of Minnesota that I am not aware of the only think they can possibly get him for is obstruction and to be honest if he is covering something up then as much as I like the guy he should be pinched.
