Q: My brother in law was a pedestrian hit and killed by drunk driver last month. The man was charged with veh. Homic.
Why would the the wrecker tow the vehicle to the man's yard instead of inpounding the vehicle. Why did the police wait 9 hour before notifying my mother in law. And how on earth does a person charged with dui and homicide by vehicle get only a $1500 bond
A:
Very sorry to hear about your brother-in-law. You should speak to an attorney right away.

A:
focus on the claim. The bond is up to the judge. If the person is not a flight risk they can be let off with no bond!
Time the police waited to notify--may have been looking for a spouse first. Who knows and it really doesn't matter.
They don't impound for everything--if they got the evidence via photos, all they need.
