It's about time the judges started running sentences consecutively. Thank you sir.
I just don't understand concurrent sentences!! If there are multiple charges, there should be separate consecutive sentences.
@@patriciagriswold6060 💯 you hear judges read off all these sentences and the biggest one is ten years and then they all run concurrently. Which means the punk will be out in six to seven.
i think he only ran them consecutive because concurrent would have let this young man out in less than 10 years while his victim has life. he has no consideration of the laws or other humans.
Yet all of these white lids get them run concurrently even when there is a death associated
@@lamerblack7536 No one should get them and I have seen plenty of black kids get concurrent. That's why you got those black lids with ten felonies back on the streets murdering people.
19 years is nothing compared to what this young lady lost!
18 years... Bullshit!
That girl is sentenced for life!!
I’ve seen a woman decapitate a man and only got 4yrs. In comparison, 18yrs is more than fair. You should look up other cases where the sentences are between 4-15yrs and most people get under 5 yrs.
An with good time he'll be out in 15 🤦🏻♀️ while this girl has do live the rest Of her life without her legs an the trauma of the accident. I pray that she continues to thrive an helps people in situations like this maybe can go around an speak to highschool about the dangers of something like this happening as I don't know if he was under the influence or not.
Hitting someone with a car like that ought to be seen as the same as using a g*n.
That man didn't even have the decency to say I'm sorry. What a pos.
and at 14:37 he answers each of the good Judge's questions with a disinterested "Yeah", and not even Yes, or Yes your Honor. What a lowlife
Because if he did….he’d be saying that he knows he’s guilty, this way he can continue to say a accident that he was distracted by something.or he didn’t realize he had done something wrong…no accountability for anything that he has ever done. Mom is so heartbroken I hope she can heal as well as her daughter….
The guy is a coward. Doesn't even have the courage to show his face.
My thoughts exactly - so arrogant and shows no remorse whatsoever! Truly shocking!! 😮😢
Seems very common now with the face diapers on these criminals! 😷 cowards!
if he did the democrats would have blurred him.
@@mrxpexplorer6318 Really?? LOL
@@mrxpexplorer6318🌊🌊🌊
I didn't hear anything about hospital bills or anything else that he should be forced to pay.
They'll take it from the Courts "Victim Funds"!
He won't have. He'll be in prison!
He will be in prison for hurt this women who lost her legs cause you you made that happen you cause to drive the way you did hope you will be in prison for a long time you will have to pay her medical bills she in a wheel chair cause of you hope you sit in prison for a long time surecnotcletvhim ever drive again
I doubt he will pay because he will be incarcerated.
@@user-ph4pc4mg7z You mean take it from tax payers.
He didn't have a license or Insurance and kept getting away with nit having either for 5YEARS or justice system is broke because of weak judges and prosecutors. I wish we could sue them for not doing their job. Do you all have any idea how many people are killed or injured because of speeders and drunks look in up you will be sick to your stomach. But to give you a idea it's not hundreds it's many of thousands and we pay tge price in or lives family lives and our wallets
Consecutive is the only word I want to hear
Beautiful young woman. Father saved her life. Strong family. Wish them all continued healing and peace 🙏🏻💜
18 years? She has to live more than 18 years with no legs!!
I pray for continued healing and peace for Janae and her family .
I agree with you in your prayer.
Amen 🙌🏻
How long did you pray for?
@@DeeRodriguez_BallerinaFaLife you surely have a "know it all" smart mouth!
@@DeeRodriguez_BallerinaFaLife The length of the prayer isn't important, the prayer is.
You should’ve got 18 years for each leg. Because she has to go through the rest of her life without them. But this is better than him just walking away. Another case of it didn’t have to happen. It was a choice by this young person and the victim gets to pay for it.
He will be out of prison long before 18 years.
@@virginia2949won’t happen. He got consecutive sentences and can’t come up for parole. He’s got to serve all the time and doesn’t get any good time under his sentencing. The state can also bring him back up on charges that the judge sat aside.
Of coarse he’s appealing🤬 NO accountability. What a POS
Don't worry he won't win the appeal. Appeals are very very hard to win according to statistics. And the ones who do win appeals, are done because something was done badly during trial. Everything went fine here.
Janae is a beautiful young lady , she really touched my heart. Blessings to her and her beautiful family 💕💕
Mine, too.
I thought the judge was about to say you have the right to F*** off 😮😂 but he was trying to say follow up
Me to lmao
Lol me too
Same .
lol 😂
What a tragedy. Brave young woman. Not to mention the enormous medical bills she will have forever .
Eff his rights!!! Not long enough!!! This beautiful young lady is serving a life sentence, so should he!!!!
What a “tool”. With all those charges against him he turned down a plea deal and wants a new trial ? Never showed remorse either.🔥
He can't show remorse, or rather, not real remorse, nor can he show genuine empathy cause he doesn't have it in him.
A piece of garbage! He doesn’t belong out in society!🤢🤢
@@alicesmith6750you do not know him so that is impossible for you to know
I am glad no plea deal. Too many plea deals!!
@@SWEETG83 thats ONE of the problems with the US today…..please deals. Lazy A*s prosecutors that are 1. Too lazy to put in the work and 2. Scared of hurting their conviction rate. This country has became a joke. One of many problems but its one of the main ones.
Feel so sorry for that young lady and glad he is off the streets.
He should be sentenced to life and not allowed to use his legs while in jail. Keep them tied up and he can drag himself where he needs to go.
A.M.E.N.
Why is he the only one wearing a mask? Because he's a coward
He’s an absolute coward! POS
Because the inmates he was in jail with could possibly have covid-19 or RSV which is a vicious breathing condition that he could spread all over that courtroom. So that's why he's possibly wearing a mask. There are a lot of people out here that are congregating in buildings w/o a mask and covid and RSV are still out here. I went to traffic court last week and I was the only one in the courtroom wearing a mask. I'm not guilty and I was not a coward but I had sense enough to put on a mask. And a lot of you dumbasses don't. I congratulate him for protecting other people even though he did a dastardly deed to that young lady......
@@debrannkaye861I can almost guarantee you it wasn’t his choice to wear a mask the jail or courthouse probably made him wear it so no need to congratulate him on anything.
@@debrannkaye861 YOUR THOUGHT PROCESS IS QUITE SKEWED. HI IS A COWARD, CLEARLY. HE NEEDS NO CONGRATULATIONS. YOU ARE A FOOL...
Yep, he's a COWARD!!
Wow Janae is such a beautiful, brave and courageous young lady. I wish her all the best as she continues to heal mentally and physically through this life changing trauma.
I love this judge!! First time I have ever seen or heard him. Bravo Prosecutor, Jury and Judge.
I hope this remorseless pos spends his days reflecting on the lives he’s damaged
Prime example of a drunk who have gotten off so many times and finally he just about kills someone and probably will get a low jail time
SHE IS SO BEAUTIFUL. IT IS SO SAD WHAT HE DID TO HER AND HE SHOWS NO REMORSE.
She doesn't know what you are.
The jury fulfilled their duty honorably by their judgement, and have also made it clear that the community will not end up the victim of such a crime, neither now or in the future.
The young man isn't remorseful. He just gave a blank stare and acted like, whatever.
Poor girl 😢.. lives in my town. I pray she finds peace
wearing a mask to not show his face knowing his trial is being recorded & on tv so no one sees his face whata coward
I never realized how DEVASTATING car crashes can be!
She lost her LEGS.
I was injured by a driver knocked off my bike resulting in me with 2 fracted legs . Life long injuries..titanium in my legs and knee.
I used to cycle over 100 miles a week .. gym . Massage therapist sports injury, lymphatic drainage practitioner. Now all that will change for the rest of my life. I used to wear , LV , Gucci, Christian shoes . 4 inch heals . Not anymore
@@dianahiggins1397. The roads are not safe for anyone and there will always be accidents, drunk drivers, people high on drugs or just angry people. Please let others know that the roadways is no place for bikes because you do not have enough protection around you should something happen. Someone going to prison is good but it does not restore your life or quality of life.
So the appropriate response is “yeah”??? Dang where is the respect? This current state of this upcoming generation is truly concerning…😢
Do not judge an entire generation on the actions of one rotten individual!
Without a valid drivers lic 🤷🏾♂️how did he get a rental car? excuse me haven’t followed this case
Right?! I feel like I have to promise my first born when I rent a car.
I THINK his mother rented it for him…as it came out in trial…
His mother rented it
His mother should also be prosecuted
@@lisawhite4698 THEN MOM SHOULD GO TO PRISON TOO.
This impact statement shook me..... I'm crying thinking about her squeezing their hand even while intabated... Janae is beyond a strong person....
The pain and realisation won't possibly kick in until she's taken off intubation and medically induced coma ends... she can't respond normally but she's aware of those around her...
I managed to convey operating the washing machine through hand signals 🙃... its a sureal feeling...and one I don't wish to repeat... only afterwards do you even begin to fathom what you're left to deal with...😅
So yes... the hand squeeze got to me too...
She's a brave and beautiful soul.. ❤
Should have been longer no remorse she's sentenced for the rest of her life he got off easy
So many young people with no concern for anyone. Bad parenting is the root cause of many of them.
How do you know that the convict received subpar parenting during his childhood?
@@YourSecretIsSafeWithMe I didn't say he did. I said many
@@YourSecretIsSafeWithMeby his manerisms, dimeanor failure to take responsibility, blaming his attorney. The hood braids tie it all together
@annastarr2043 What are hood braids?
@@ClueSeasonnothing but a racist remark
What a beautiful, strong and confident young lady. I wish her the best in life!❤
Thank you to the jury, lawyers and judge that did their job on this case. I hope this young lady will find peace with her new normal. I hope her parents realize that they did protect their daughter that night and without them she wouldn't be here, they did everything right that night! I hope this young man takes this time in jail to grow, uses it to get a degree. Hopefully when he comes out of jail he will be a better person than he was the day he caused this horrific accident.
HE CAN'T EVEN SAY YES YOUR HONOR AFTER BEING SENTENCED TO 18 YEARS IN PRISON.😢😢😢😢😢😢
I’m glad I’m not the only one bothered by this. Even if he wasn’t taught that growing up; his attorney should have advised him to answer “yes” or “no,” not “yeah” or “nah.”
FrFr
I'll be praying for Janae and her beautiful family ❣️🙏🇺🇲
The poor girl needs far more justice than this man getting eighteen years😢😢😢😢
Janae is strikingly beautiful. I pray for her physical and emotional strength and happiness! 🙌🏽♥️🙏🏽
Janae is amazing. What a WARRIOR. Her Father saved her lif3 and her recovery is nothing short of a miracle. Such a beautiful young lady inside and out. I don't know u but I've cried ....you are someone to look up to sis. So thankful you survived. God's not through with you yet and I am excited for your future. God bless u n yer family. Big hugs and prayers up.
He should have taken the plea. Why did he think he would win in a trial. And now he wants another attorney
Do you know what the plea was? I was wondering was it less time than given
He’s an idiot
@@Aaliyah777Aaliyah22I don’t know what the plea was either but yes usually the plea is more than half of the time of what they can get at trial. With all the evidence against him his attorney should’ve advised him to take the plea deal. I’m just pretty sure his attorney advised him to take the deal and he thought he could get off with a not guilty for some odd reason. It’s pretty hard to argue against him driving with no license and hurting the woman he hit. There’s so much evidence and witnesses against him I don’t understand why he didn’t take the plea deal unless I’m wrong and it was as many years as he did get anyways.
Janae was so strong during her testimony. She is an inspiration to me. Be well and peace be with you and your family Janae 🙏🕊️
It’s always the poor victims that suffer the rest of their lives, the criminal never gets to suffer 😮
Dude behind him is saying with his eyes...make a move...any move...
18 years🤔 to me justice is not being served, because the life of that young, beautiful woman is hell considering how her condition is destroying her dreams.
Thank you, JUDGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Such a beautiful and amazingly strong young lady, as well as her parents. What she went through is the stuff of nightmares. i Imagine myself in that same situation and though nothing can bring her legs back, what would help in her healing I believe, is a sincere apology from this reckless driver to her. It's not too late. Rather than worry about your next lawyer, put your energy into telling Janae how truly sorry he is that this happened to her by his actions. Heal well Janae. Sending my love to you from the Northern California Redwoods. 💖🌲🌲🌲
Did anyone notice the deputy falling asleep behind Daniel ?
He basically nodded the whole video, he need to be reprimanded, should have drank a red bull or something. Lol
@@lovaniwalker9814 a red bull won't help his health. He needs to lose weight
@@lovaniwalker9814what is this a witch-hunt?
Yes. He tried and tried, but couldn't stay awake. He did the shifting in the seat thing, he did the toe tapping thing, nothing worked. Even the defense lawyer seemed to be starting to nod off. Weird. Maybe it was really warm/stuffy in the courtroom?
A terrific judge! Thank you, sir!
There goes 18 years gone from your life, for a stupid decision you made in life,
Did the judge tell her to speak to him 😢 not the accuser. Isn't that a right to confront the accused?
Most States have you "address" the "court". Not directly to the guilty.
@@jmparsons7331 i understand that part 🙄 I u have a legal right to address them.
Yes ,b the family should have spoken to him direct .
I say this because I think the accuser should see the emotions of the people they hurt.
Mask? He does not want to show his face.
I was thinking the same
The mother is amazing standing up for her daughter.
He turned down a plea agreement of how much?
That's what I want to know!
This Is Sooo Heart Breaking...Damn.
That sentence is a joke!! He deserves life imprisonment!!!
Oh what a horrible accident. 😢 I’m so sorry for her challenges now.
Would hiis family be liable to paying for the physical, emotional, financial damages caused to the victim?
The brave girl has to lead her life on prosthetic legs
They can sue them civally
No. He's an adult, he's responsible for his own actions, and the consequences of those actions.
Unless they were involved directly or showed disregard for others safety like allowing him to use the car whilst knowing he didn’t have a license etc. Then it is unlikely. He is an adult and we cannot go charging parents for their adult children’s lawlessness.
Why should they? What good is it to make the family pay for him? Criminals don't really care unless it's coming out of their pockets.
she prob had insurance & it pays for everything
This is SICK! He’s a monster. The sentence was not enough. I feel so bad for the victim. My sister was there in St. Louis for the same tournament when they heard the crash! My sister was close to injury.
That court cop behind cannot keep
His eyes open hardest part of that job Sleep apnea maybe
In the description said 19 years that just not enough time for what he did she has to live with this the rest of her life why not he live in prison for the rest of his damn live. The sick judge didn't do his job and give him life
The judge gave him the maximum sentence according to the law. He also ordered it to be consecutive instead on concurrent (all ran together).
"I wasn't drivin', I was just travelin'"
You can’t hide behind that mask Sir. We know what’s behind it.
Watusi strikes again. Prison for life. He he took that girl’s normal life. He should be locked up for life.
Way to little a sentence for Taking so much from a life.
Why is he wearing a mask? That is so 2020 😂
Because it’s a coward .
My daughter BEEN at those USAV tournaments. Ain’t no reason he should not be in prison for life! Most of these girls compete since the age of 12 all to achieve scholarships, invitational to D1 university schools, etc., based on those performance which they train extensively hard for, all avid the United States. If this was my daughter; I don’t know I’d have been able to hold it together and NOT go after the person who forever changed the logged of my child who did absolutely NOTHING To this individual. He deserves no sympathy
I don't understand why he didn't take the plea deal knowing he was 💯 wrong to drive without a license 😮 He better be glad the woman didn't die, or he'd be in jail for life.
That poor girl..it’s a good thing they are addressing the judge because I never feel like the suspect cares one bit.
She should be able to direct whatever she wants to him! He shouldn't get the relief of not being condemned by her.
Worst closed captioning ever on mom's impact statement, and it makes a mockery of what this girl went through.
For the defendant to NOT say anything... speaks volumes about his character. He does not give two 💩 about anyone. He does not respect anyone.
Mom was right, he has no remorse. If he wanted to HOPEFULLY have a concurrent sentence (glad he didn't btw) he could have apologized. Have a nice time in prison, punk!
I’m so glad she’s walking again. Last time I saw her she was still in a wheelchair. So glad she was able to get prosthetics and be able to walk again. 18 years isn’t enough but at least it’s something.
He didnt seem remotely bothered about spending the best years of his life in prison. 🤷♀️
That's what I am saying!!! Not bothered at all, go to prison and be fresh meat
He's clearly dumb as hell. Refused a plea deal, and now probably thinks he can appeal his way out of his sentence. No shot buddy.
This is horrific 😢❤
Precious girl.
To see you walking so well, made me so proud of you!!!!!
Justice for this young lady 🙏🏾
I’m distracted by the Captain America wall decoration,football pics and army tissue box. The courtroom isn’t a place for personal decor. That needs to be in his office. He also seems to be bored and unbothered by the seriousness of this case.
*me listening to this quietly at work*
Judge: "the 18 years are to run consecutively"
Me out loud startling my coworker: Get FUCKED
Praying for you guys and your family, thank you Jesus for restoring this beautiful, innocent child.. Comfort and heal as only you can dear Jesus 💔🇺🇸💔
The judge's questions to the defendant about his lawyer were interesting. It will be harder for him to claim ineffective counsel for an appeal give njis answers. More jurisdictions should have the judge do this.
Jesus! 😩 The trajectory of her life is completely changed.
This is tragic for everyone involved. That girl went through so much and was only here to a tournament, and he lost a well all because of a reckless decision that we all know he didn't intend to hurt her. Two teens and two complete life changes. I hold my son accountable all the time, and he doesn't like it always, but he'll have to respect it in the longrun because things can really change in the blink of an eye.
He also robbed people!!! He is worthless
Yeah this dude wasn't speeding to school because he was late for an exam, just another small time career criminal with no regard for society. I'm very glad to see examples like this being made in the post-Gardner era.
@@alesia912 oh, was he involved in robbery?? When was it?
He intended to by his selfishness.
@@athensmajnoo3661 he was out on bail for the robbery when he caused this accident
Weak sentence yet again...at least 50 yrs
He should have gotten life, she got life in a wheel chair
Can Deputy Christian get a few days off so he can get some rest!!????? He's sleeping while standing up!!! Lack of sleep?? Overworked?
How could a person sentenced to 18 yrs. be so calmed?
Sedated ?
Janae, hang in there. I lost my legs when I was 12, so I understand the place you are in. I promise you will move past this and live a wonderful life filled with joy. I’m living proof 😊
Anyone know what the plea deal was?
Should never get out of prison
He was intoxicated, drugged, under the influence of an ilegal substance, no drivers license, wreckless, no remorse. His momma should have been judged too. She provided a lethal weapon to person not prepared or trained to handle it.
My prayers are for God's strength and love for Janae Edmondson and her Family and Friends.
🙏🏻🤍🙏🏻🤍🙏🏻🤍🙏🏻
Lol does that judge have a captain america shield on the wall of his court? And an army tissue box?
He barely stood up ALL THE WAY,SO Disrespect full!
*The "Beat Navy" sign on his desk seems a little inappropriate!*
Poor Young Woman ❤❤❤😢😢😢
Such a small sentence
He should be locked up for life! Because that is how long she will be affected. Best of wishes to she and her family....❤
So sad
What about the mother who rented a car and let her unlicensed son drive it! She should be judged as well and both should be made to pay some type of restitution. This will drive the point thar kids and parents are accountable.
