Throwing an ice tea carton at some innocent person driving by. This is typical behavior from a wise-ass kid who has no respect for anyone. The other 2 bums should go to STATE prison for taking another persons life. I just wonder if they will have the same chip on their shoulder when the gates close behind them as they walk into the state prison? It is a shame that one moment of stupidity causes a lifetime of grief.

So they get charged with "involuntary" manslaughter because Addy has no balls. Doesn't this mean they didn't mean to kill the guy? What a f**kin joke! They need to die the same way their victim did! Kill the bastards!!!

Well said Captain Skirvy. And Veteran, I agree, there are alot of punks that walk the town and hang in the park, I hope their parents are proud of the children they have raised !! I wish Palmerton would clean up the so called trash they have in this town.

Where were the police while this was all happening? I don't believe this couldn't have been settled without Mr Higgins losing his life. The result of this fight was a great tragedy for all of the Higgins family. If my son did anything like this I'd feel guilty myself.
