Stallworth got off light because the guy he killed may have jaywalked and ran out into the street, thus, not giving him sufficient time to react. The last report was the guy was trying to catch a bus and darted out into the street far away from any light or crossing zone. I'm not justifying Stallworth's actions or for being a dumbass and drinking/drugging and driving, just that there may have been reasonable cause to suspect that the person killed may have been partly to blame. That might explain the reason why the family was willing to cut a deal and ask the state to show leniency. It's a pretty screwed up system in Florida were they allow the legal process to be bypassed like that.
