I think it depends on his past behavior. If this episode was another instance in a pattern of selfish, sociopathic behavior, then it needs to be corrected. We could argue about the quality and aptitude of our criminal justice system in meting out that correction, but I think it's a matter how much, not if.

Again, it depends on the individual... I can concoct a story for him where this was barely his fault, he was having the worst day ever. But drunk driving, hit-and-running is fucking low.
