Is not filing charges on him for manslaughter, just DWI and possession, because they say my daughter was driving too fast. She was going 93 mph on impact. Can they seriously not charge this man with manslaughter for killing my daughter because of that reason?

If it is a true 3rd DWI, then your chances would normally be pretty good to get probation across Texas. This is assuming there were no extenuating circumstances like evading, threatening the officer, involvement in a crash, etc.
The prior evading adds many variables. If you went to prison... View More
