Begs the question – is it not allowed to drink AND walk?
No mention of the alcohol level of deceased …. I’m not saying it wasn’t a factor in this but jeez. The driver was .. repeat WAS fricken drunk, Behind the wheel and driving a vehicle. He walks?????

Maybe the prosecuter shoulda charged with manslaughter but ….
pays in WI to get drunk and drive vs walk and drunk. I was charged 22 years ago with walking drunk in Hudson at 0.10 and fined. My buddy got a DUI and he to walked. Crazy

It is cheese head state, what do you expect? Everything they over there are cheesy.

He didn’t dash in front of the car. He was crossing the street at an intersection wihen hit. He the driver should be in jail.

In Wisconsin, a person who causes death with any type of motor vehicle while legally intoxicated may be liable and charged with homicide by intoxicated use of a motor vehicle. Culpability lies with the perpetrator. In 2003 the maximum prison term for conviction on that charge was reduced from 40 years to 15 years imprisonment. The length of sentence is now equivalent to a charge and conviction in Wisconsin of second-degree reckless homicide.[23] In Wisconsin, as in most states, vehicular homicide occurs when the act is not perpetrated during a felony, because driving while under the influence is not a felony.

No charges for this person is misplaced justice. He was guilty of killing a person while intoxicated and is allow to walk.
