Possible Disposition Tomorrow on Charges Against Parker in Diane Carhart's Death

As the title of this entry suggests, tomorrow there is a good chance that Christopher G. Parker will be pleading guilty to charges of Vehicular Homicide and Driving With A Revoked License in connection with Diane's death on March 5, 2007.

He is due in Barnstable District Court tomorrow, July 25, 2007 at 2:00pm 3195 Main St. Barnstable, MA. Since Parker is still in custody he will be brought to the courthouse by the Sheriff and should appear in the courthouse in handcuffs.

If Parker does plead guilty I will be able to read the Victim Impact Statements that my brother Johnny and I have written. The statements are to be addressed to the Judge and not to Parker, he will be able to hear me read them. I have been waiting for a chance to let Parker know what his irresponsible, selfish acts have done to our family.

I will post what happens at court tomorrow as soon as I get home. Well, actually I have to call my brother and other family members first...but I can type while I talk! Please send prayers and thoughts that Parker will receive the maximum penalty allowed (only 2.5 years!) so that he won't be able to harm anyone else for at least a little while.

I have been away on vaca but while I was gone I heard a story of a 17yr old boy having con. sex with a 16 yr old girl. Her parents pressed charges and he has been in jail for 10yrs. Can you imagine killing someone you get 2.5 but because you have relations and are not yet 18 you can get more than 10. I do not know how the system works but I suppose 2.5 is what the system thinks a human life is worth. I am sorry.
