Courtroom outburst: dad throws chair at judge who gave his daughter’s killer absurdly light sentence
- 9 years ago
Last year in the Netherlands, a grandpa and grandma took their 2-year-old granddaughter for a bike ride along a picturesque bike path that runs near a road.
A man, identified in court documents only as a Polish national, was speeding along the same road that day, going at least 120 kilometers per hour, or about 75 miles per hour.
The speed limit along the road is 80 kilometers per hour.
As the speeder rounded a bend, he lost control of his vehicle, went off the road and hit the cyclists. Grandpa, grandma and their little granddaughter were killed instantly.
Sentencing of the 33-year-old Polish driver finally arrived last week, and the grieving father of the little girl must have been expecting a harsh punishment for the man who had taken his child and his parents from him.
Instead, the judge gave the speeder 120 hours of community service or 60 days in jail, promoting the dad to pick up a chair and throw it towards the judge.
What would you have done if you’d been that dad?
