Default 8 Murdered, 45 critically injured in LA Spree (what a moron)

In article ,
says...

Not withstanding, there still was no INTENT.


Yes. That changes it from murder to manslaughter, or
whatever they charge in CA. 8, 10 counts. Unless he
was drunk or otherwise knew he should not have been
operating a motor vehicle.

What does the law want to know? Would a reasonable
person think that he would crash the car, if he
went out driving with whatever disability he had?
If he had, say, failed an eye test, then a reasonable
person might say yes, crashing and killing people
might be a predictable consequence.

That could bump the charge up, depending on how
they want to play it.
