    It's Carol GRIMMOND, not Gimmond. Please have some respect for the victim.

    RIP Carol. How horribly sad. I'm so, so sorry.

    And how about say - 5 years in jail - and no driver's license for - LIFE! Take a life, see your's ruined. Sounds fair to me.

    It is a tragic and horrible thing to happen and in 2012 there are still people that get behind the wheel drunk. Seriously, when will people get it. So a sentence of 25 years to life for the taking of a life...not in Canada.......call upon the governement for more harsh penalties. Drunk Driving impacts eveyone and destroys family. SHAME SHAME on the drivers and of the system. God look after Carol!!!!
