That does not seem right for a hit and run. If she hit him by accident and stopped to help then I could understand, but she left the scene. That has to be a felony, she should have her drivers license revoked.

Fucking Bullshit!

From BikeSide:

"Celine Mahdavi hit Louis Deliz so hard that his teeth were embedded in her car, then drove away, Deliz’ body dislodging from her car and landing face down. He lost most of the lower half of his jaw, all his lower teeth, broke both legs, broke nearly all his fingers, broke his hip, and punctured a lung (if memory serves.) Just a few days ago, Louis had a massive seizure, and he is still seeing double from it. To this day he can’t walk right, he can’t talk right, he can’t see right, and he has nightmares and flashbacks. Mahdavi, 18 at the time, was pulled over a half mile from the accident where she tested positive for alcohol."

I can’t help but wonder how much Mahdavi’s family paid the judge. Or who in her family works in / is in bed with law enforcement / the judicial system. To be fair, if the driver had been a 40 year old Hispanic man with no money and no legal support, and Mahdavi had been the cyclist, they would have put the driver away for decades.

Regardless, Fox is an absolute disgrace to the American judiciary system. This on the heels of the Oscar Grant case sentencing (only tangentially related but still infuriating). I just don’t know what to do with myself when the courts are protecting those who are willing to kill / try to kill others. Clearly fighting back is out of the question. It only makes it easier to demonize us and we will be crapped on even harder.

"We have to keep on fighting for our rights and educating the public."

Yeah, alright, we do, you're right, but are YOU willing to be one of the next thousand cyclists that need to get hit with impunity before we start to see tangible changes in these kinds of cases?

WTF man?

This is a very disturbing aspect of the justice system. It is not fair that there is this clear gap in sentencing, which tend to easily fall along financial lines.

I saw bikesides' article last night, and I read this thread a bit before I rode to work this morning. I was dwelling on it and as usually, while I needed to navigate through and predict traffic. Questions arise: What if I got hit and had to go to trial to present my case? Would I be frustrated by the outcome? What would the outcome be? what would I WANT the outcome to be?

And the two questions that kept pressing me (though not for the first time):

1. What is justice?
2. What "kind" of punishment would be deserving if I got hit by an 18 year old who was intoxicated?

Again, this is not the first time I've thought about these questions, since as a regular commuter, you encounter so many close calls that you have to wonder sometimes: will one of these rides be my last?

There are two parties involved: A. Driver and B. Cyclist.

The driver is guilty of something. And the cyclist is deserving of "justice", as many state.

Without playing into too many abstract arguments and such, I just feel equally uneasy about the call for "justice" in this case.

Do we really have a clear idea what a fair punishments is?
Do we agree with this punishment on principle or are we only concerned with an apples to apples sentencing?
Do these same advocates of jail time, believe that this person belongs in jail?
How many advocates of jail time have actually spent a significant portion of their life in jail?

What is justice in this case? Or what do we want to see happen?

I couldn't answer this on my way to work, but I felt troubled over the ease to put someone in jail. I was equally troubled by the ease in which the justice system seemed to treat the incident. Luis was treated unfairly and with a sense of indifference, and as many have noted -- it could have been any of us.

Hit and Run needs to be TWICE the penalty of drunk driving collision.
minimum 1 year in prison. nothing less. revocation of DL for 10 years and no exceptions for work.

if the victim dies or sustains permanent injury then minimum 4 years time and revocation of DL for LIFE.

if the collision was proven to be intentional then hate crime laws apply along with above

Treating it the same as an "assault with a deadly weapon" crime, lifetime revocation of driving privileges, and their personal vehicle destroyed in any number of humiliatingly destructive fashions(ie.,crushed by industrial pile driver, direct hit by a 155mm artillery shell, chewed up by TruckZilla., etc).
All of this in addition to any mandatory prison sentencing they'll be put through for such a charge.

Essentially, they'll be scarred in some form or fashion after a triple blow punishment like this that they'll either go mad with blind rage and die of a heart-attack, or fade into the darkness and slice the vein.

In other words, a severe-enough, enforceable punishment will act as a form of deterrent.

Yes, I believe she belongs in jail. No, I have not spent time in jail.

So how do I justify putting her in jail if I have never been in jail?

Well, how can you ask yourself whether jail time is too harsh a punishment to mete out for someone who has never been to jail themselves, if the person meting out judgment has never killed, stolen, hit-and-run, raped, etc? I have never been to jail because I do not commit crimes.

People who commit crimes - serious crimes - knowingly and willingly, are EXACTLY the people I believe should be in jail. That is what jail is for. No hesitation. Lock her up.

IF
she was sober and
IF
she hit someone by accident (NOT negligence) and
IF
she stopped because she knew she did something wrong and was concerned
THEN
I would say she didn't deserve jail time.

BUT she

DID
drive drunk
DID
hit someone due to gross negligence and
DID NOT
give half a damn whether she had hit / injured / killed anyone.

Do I believe she belongs in jail? I believe she deserves hospital time equal to what she did to Birdman. Jail is not enough / teaches the wrong lesson. She needs to EXPERIENCE what she has caused. Eye for eye justice doesn't work in this case, but this contemptible filth clearly considers herself above the offering of human decency to others, and thus is below the receipt of human decency in turn. Off with her head. God damnit.

the whole point of jail time is to act a deterrent. fine, maybe she doesn't belong in jail but is 90 days community service going to discourage the next drunk hit and run driver?

I'm not 100% sure how to go about this, but bringing this to light to the ALCU may be a step into the right direction. I'm not sure what reservations you guys may have against that organization but having them on your side is better than not.

In addition, media attention is what is necessary as well. True, the trial is over, but it doesnt mean you cant keep fighting. As gruesome as it seems, the media has very bad taste. Writing to every single news outlet and sending pictures of yourself in the hospital/accident/damage/etc with a letter explaining your injuries as well as the final verdict would be sure to get instant attention.

Nothing will get done unless you wedge yourself in. It's a hassle, its time consuming, but don't give up Birdman! ♥

So how do I justify putting her in jail if I have never been in jail?

Not really what I was getting at, but more or less, I wonder how many pro jail time people have actually being in jail (experienced life in jail). It wasn't meant to justify anything.

I think your response and others just highlights my general worry, which is that "justice" means something different to most people (though not surprising). It's just that we are rightly upset about the verdict, but i really believe we don't have a grasp on what it fair, but more importantly "right", yet we're ready to take the streets and make sure someone gets what they deserve.

So as we protest and call for justice, it really seems like we're fighting for something that has some similar elements, but nothing that is as concrete as say: 90 days community service.

It would just be good to have a clearer stance, not just this is unfair because others get worse, or because it doesn't match an arbitrary relation to the harm the victim received.

to be clear: I think the punishment should be worse, but I do not think jail time does anyone any good. It is rarely a deterrent. I'm not the victim, so he may have some justified stance on this, I just would like to protest with a firmer sense of what avenues we can pursue.

her life should be fucked.
just because her family paid off the judges/court system doesn't mean she should only walk away with 90 days and still be able to drive. That just seems like a joke to me
if not jail time, she sould have to wear an alcohol motoring braclette seeing as she is only 18, have her license revoked for 1-2 years, and serve 300 hours of HARD community service.

How about never allowing her dumb ass to drive again? That's better than jail time. She should still get jail time though, I don't give a shit how young she is.

Also, how about community service AT A DIY BIKE COOP??

take that bad.. license revoke for 3 years... 3,000 hours of community service.. sounds excessive.. but if you heard or saw what Louis went though.. youd beg for more. She deserves jail time.


She honestly NEEDS to be thrown in jail and be screwed over for life.

Perhaps a semi will pull out in front of her and ruin her day for good.

Not all of us are complete angels, but letting demons like this walk isn't doing anything to encourage righteous behavior either.

louis is serving a life sentence of seizures, physical therapy and constant pain. he has lost his freedom to ride a bike, to race and to live a normal life.

celine mahdavi spent ONE NIGHT in jail. she will do community service for ninety days and give up a small part of her earnings for the rest of her life while secretly living off her rich parents.

there is no justice.

Um, really sorry about all of this, I imagine it sucks the most for Louis. Sorry to hear that she got a slap on the wrist. So, sorry for the injustice for all cyclists. When I read the bikeside article my heart sank, I hope you feel better and can't wait to see you zip by some night!
