He certainly had no intent to harm or kill anyone.You don't *know* that. You do not know what his intent was. Maybe he was despondent over affairs at home, finances, or just plain suicidal. Maybe he said "The hell with it!" and intentionally ran his train at full speed into an oncoming locomotive. Hell, maybe he got his training from Alquida in Someforeginstan. An investigation will show what an investigation will show. LION thinks that texting mitigates against such a conclusion, but it surely does not exclude it. Most likely scenario: He was a complacent jerk who was not following the rules. ROAR ON HIM |
