ROFL

Is Rice staring down the barrel of a murder 1 charge or something? Lol

1. That was ****ing stupid from a legal standpoint.
2. It doesn’t sound like there is confirmation he was the driver, despite being the only one permitted to drive per the agreement.

They’ll still need to prove he was driving. Assuming he didn’t send any other stupid texts and he and his friends kept their mouths shut, it will be hard to bury him.

I’ll bet they strike a plea deal for some misdemeanor just to mutually get past it (unless there is concrete evidence he was driving).

Lying is the one thing that will get him in the most trouble so doing that isn't the worst thing. At this point they know he was there anyway may as well come clean and deal with what he deserves to deal with. Actions have consequences.

Just being there as a passenger is not a crime.

Until there is tangible evidence confirming he was driving one of the vehicles at the time of the crash, the police have nothing.

Some of the takes in this thread are ridiculous. Do you know how many traffic and security cameras there are these days?

They should easily be able to pull camera shots to determine who was behind the wheel.

You never got a camera ticket have you? I have and there was NO DOUBT I was driving.

Keep your mouth shut; hire the best legal representation you can afford; say whatever they tell you to say and say nothing else.

I suspect that's nearer $50K/yr to lease, if that.

Now when you crumple one into an oversized ball of foil and have to pay for it because you were street racing, that's less wise. But at that point it's the street racing that was poorly considered.

Okay - that's not a lease.

If you're calculating it by the day, that's a rental.

I'm not sure what renting a Lamborghini has to do with buying a corvette (which was the argument previously being had) but hey, you go on patting yourself on the back, bud.

I’m pretty sure she could have gotten the extra space she wanted at like half the price or less.. but it looks slick and she can say she drives an Escalade.

Just give me something relatively spacious, with a couple bells and whistles and I’m good to go. No need to spend $100,000 on something that can go 0-60 in 4 seconds when I’m never going to flex those nuts anyway, just gonna be sitting in traffic during rush hour lol

Last time I played Gran Turismo or Need for Speed, 4 seconds was probably top shelf.

Touché, but given the circumstances, you'd think everybody would be happy that this isn't nearly as bad as it could've been, and Rice willl be fine.

Instead, everybody wants to make it a bigger deal than it is.

We always wondered if that was legal.

I picked them up and the price was $1,200. I put them back down quickly.

We kind of gave another "oh cool" since we'd never heard of the brand Urmas. Well, it turns out that the brand is Hermes (pronouced Urmas). We looked them up....those shoes were $1000!:eek:
