“The piece of scum who crashed into my granddaughter doing 70 MPH died on the operating table last night. I’m not a vengeful man but that bastard got what he deserved. He was a life long criminal who was running from the police when he hit my baby. Amelia was going to dance practice, he was running to get away from the police. We are going now to go claim her body back to our family. God Bless you sweet Amelia. This the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. Pray for my wife and daughter.”
