Trucker Who Killed Woman in Crash Was Watching Porn on Laptop

My friends would likely tell you that I am never at a loss for words, but after hearing that the trucker who killed Julie Stratton in an accident last month on the New York Thruway was distracted because he was watching porn on his laptop at the time of the crash, I am almost speechless.  Meaning, while I am struggling to find civil words to describe my outrage and contempt at the trucker's alleged behavior, I have no shortage of f-bombs and other four-letter words on the tip of my tongue.

Hurtling down the road behind the wheel of a tractor trailer that may have weighed as much as 200,000 pounds while sleep deprived and while getting his kicks watching adult movies is so grossly reckless that it nearly defies comprehension.  If I were reperesenting Ms. Stratton's family on their injury and wrongful death case against the trucker and his employer, I would be salivating at the opportunity to lay this case out in front of a jury so that the jury would hammer the defendants with an enormous verdict.  And I would have to keep my self in check during the trial so as not to let my true thoughts (and words) slip out.  Lawyers get in heap big trouble for saying things they shouldn't in court.

Okay, venting period is over.  My heart breaks for Ms. Stratton's husband and children.  I wish them peace and healing.
