I agree with tuckahoekid. If this man stopped at the stop sign, how did he gather up enough speed to cause a fatal injury to a pedestrian? It just doesn't add up.

This event is calling for a Vehicular Homicide charge.
3 charges(conditions that a jury must prove) of Vehicular Homicide:
1. That the Defendant was driving the vehicle.(Anthony LoManaco was driving)
2. That the Defendant caused the death of the victim.(Casey Feldman died as a result)
3. That the Defendant caused such death by driving the vehicle recklessly(failure to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk)
With the way the vehicles are parked in the intersection in these pictures, I can honestly say that it doesn't appear that visibility was a problem, especially if he stopped at the stop sign-which would have gave him extra time to take note of pedestrians, or any cars approaching the intersection.
