Remember the kid who got decapitated by a water slide? They are throwing the book at the water park. Designer was picked up in Texas.

quote:

Schooley faces charges of second-degree murder, aggravated battery and aggravated endangerment of child. He is due to be arraigned, then sent to Kansas, the Marshals Service said in a news release.

Besides Schooley, two water park executives and two companies also face criminal charges related to the death of Caleb Schwab, who was decapitated in 2016 while riding what was billed as the world’s tallest waterslide.

The co-owner of the Schlitterbahn Waterpark, Jeffrey Henry, faces a second-degree murder charge, and the park’s former director of operations, Tyler Austin Miles, has been charged with involuntary manslaughter. The construction company involved in designing and building the slide and the Schlitterbahn park also face charges, according to indictments unsealed in March.

All five defendants are charged with aggravated battery and aggravated child endangerment for injuries suffered by 13 others, including four children, on the water slide before Caleb’s death.

Alt-right has been leaning heavily on the "YouTube is censoring the right by not allowing them to earn a living on their platform" lately, wouldn't be suprised if it's related somehow.

To explain better, I think the kid was related to one of the lawmakers who voted to deregulate the standards that led to this all happening.

Would be one hell of a defense to throw the very lawmaker under the bus for allowing it.

Given this hell dimension, letting the lovely guy off with a slap on the wrist to own the lawmaker on top of the family-killing self-own would not be unexpected.

The dock really fucks a case or nerfing it.

They let a man with no design or safety training build a thing that kills a kid. And covered up a bunch of previous injuries that should have closed the ride.

In addition to the politician and covering stuff up, it seems quite possible the prosecutor consulted with a PE that wouldn't stop babbling about everything thats wrong until the words "murder" were spoken.

The slide was repeatedly injuring people (severely enough to include broken bones, not just bumps and bruises), and they not only failed to close the slide but they actively destroyed evidence and forced employees to falsify documents to hide the danger. They were perfectly aware that they were shoveling people through a deadly slide and elected to ignore it because money was more important.

The indictment includes a lot of stuff about the water slide as a deadly weapon, because it was unsafe as hell and they knew it. Plus all the tampering with evidence and impersonating an officer and poo poo. They're a delightful bunch of idiots who I hope get nailed to the wall.

Also Google Maps is really good about correcting its route to save you time. On one road trip it suddenly has us turning off the interstate to take small, unlit country roads that nobody could have ever predicted to let us skip sections that were heavily backed up due to construction or accidents.

Sometimes I still need to tell my mom to stop fiddling with routes in her head and just use Google, because she always wants to turn off at some other exit and take back roads that she "knows" will get her there faster. Every time she goes against her GPS, she ends up stuck at endless red lights.

The day GMaps started routing me down all of my own hard learned cutouts was the I chose to put my unwavering blind faith in the machine.

My day was when Gmaps routed me to the Marathon I usually use when driving to visit my sister and brother-in-law instead of the two I passed on the way to that one even thought I just searched "MARATHON" and clicked the first result.

I let Google navigate for me from now on. Also because it doesn't do that super bitchy "Recalculating" a lot of Garmins do.
