Edit: and I think it's asking Jessica a bit much to "remember he's a person, too".

I'm not disputing the fact that he intentionally ran the light. But that's not the same as intentionally colliding with another car.
I also definitely did not mean to seem insensitive, so I apologize if it came across that way.
I suppose I find it easier to try to find the best in people, and it just seems like it would be easier to heal by forgiving. The system will almost never give a victim the closure and justice they deserve.
