And Brad said way back that some kids were coerced to lie for the caretaker (presumably by his lawyer or a representative of the cemetery who would have known if he went down the cemetery would likely be found culpable for his conduct). Like you said, strange set of facts. Like I said, plenty of culpability to go around. Did the court hear the "whole truth?" Doesn't seem like it. And as someone else said, kids do dumb things. And as Mike Tyson said, we all dumb shit when we're ***** up. Bottom line: a tragedy.
I am sure that if the kids did lie it was more to cover their own asses than the caretaker. But if this happened Brad can't blame his lawyer.
And don't forget that Brad willingly took part in these parties and drank the beer. If some innocent person driving down the road was hit by a drunk driver from the party I can see them being outraged. But Brad never complained about the caretaker's behavior until he got injured. This does not excuse what the caretaker did. It just seems like Brad is not in the best position to complain.
