I'm amazed. People with that kind of money can burn down an orphanage and
avoid prison. Does San Bernardino actually have an honest judge?

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. - A man who won $10 million in a California lottery
game was sentenced to more than 17 years in prison for a drunken-driving
crash that killed three people.
Thomas Turnour pleaded guilty to gross vehicular manslaughter while
intoxicated and causing injury while driving intoxicated.
The winner of a SuperLotto game in 2001 was sentenced Friday in San
Bernardino.
The 52-year-old man from Victorville was driving a pickup that hit a car
stopped at a red light in San Bernardino three years ago, authorities say.
Three people inside the first car died.
His attorney said Turnour essentially "turned over everything he has" to
settle a lawsuit filed by the victims' families.
