'No real consequence': Driver who plowed into husband holding hands with wife as they crossed the street will not spend a day in prison
Story by Colin Kalmbacher • 19h

A Colorado man received the legal equivalent of mercy after hitting a married couple with his car and killing the husband.

In September, Samuel Robert Michael, 28, pleaded guilty to one count of each vehicular assault resulting in death, vehicular homicide, DUI, careless driving resulting in injury, and careless driving causing significant bodily injury to a vulnerable road user, the District Attorney's Office for the 23rd Judicial District told Law&Crime.
 
On Monday, 23rd Judicial District Court Judge Elizabeth B. Volz sentenced the defendant to four years of community corrections, which is the Mile High State's version of a halfway house.

The Colorado Department of Corrections website describes the relatively lenient punishment as "a sentencing or placement alternative, in lieu of prison incarceration, for felony offenders."
