Speeder going 140 km/h on Oak who killed someone acquitted

This is why we will continue to see asshats driving like they own the road. WTF is this ... what more do you need for a conviction? Is this the Philippines or something where you can pay off the judge if you have enough $$? If anyone can offer an explanation of logic to this ... please do.

Woman says justice denied in death of her husband in Vancouver crash | Vancouver Sun

“Where is justice?”

That is the question Josephine Hui has been asking since last month when the man charged in connection with her physician husband’s death in 2015 was acquitted. It is a decision she says is “absurd and ridiculous” and that she now wants to see appealed.

Alphonsus Hui died at age 68 after the driver of an Audi slammed into his Suzuki on Nov. 14, 2015 at the intersection of West 41st Ave. and Oak St. in Vancouver. Police estimated that the driver who hit him had been travelling at more than 140 km/h before the crash.

Ken Chung, then 35 and of Richmond, was tried for dangerous driving causing death. He was acquitted on May 25.

The judge concluded that “the momentariness of the accused’s conduct in excessively speeding is insufficient to meet the criminal fault component and he must be acquitted.”
