If the car owners sold the car, they’d have cash but no car. And apparently they need a car, else why have it in the first place. So no, the money was never going to feed the poor.
Now the owners will get compensated by their insurance and can make a smarter choice for the replacement vehicle. Tesla owners get a message, and they only one hurt is the insurer.
Yep. In Germany for example we don’t name perpetrators at all, neither alleged nor convicted. Newspapers are not allowed to refer to them with anything but the first name plus first letter of the last name, or initials. The only exception is when someone dangerous is on the run and they need help from the public to ID him, in that case the name is released after an ethical review board from the police force decides so (it’s mostly done on the spot without delay, but there is a procedure at the very least).
A general exception is made for persons of interest, be it celebrities, politicians or something. For general members of the public, nothing truly identifiable is released. Minors (generally below the age of 18, or people tried as minors, i.e. committed a crime while below 18 but only tried later) will not be named whatsoever; only their age and gender are released.
Race is never mentioned, unless it is a race-related hate crime.
Lol, thanks for identifying yourself. I always like to get a head start and block deluded people before they get too annoying.
