Make Way for Ducklings…NOT!

A woman in Canada may get life in prison for doing this. She stopped on the highway in an attempt to rescue some ducklings and a motorcycle slammed into her vehicle resulting in the death of the motorcycle driver and his daughter, his passenger. The conviction is for two counts of criminal negligence causing death, a charge that carries a maximum life sentence, and two counts of dangerous driving causing death, which comes with a maximum of 14 years in jail. She is only 25 years old and has been released until her pre-sentence hearing on Aug. 8. The accident occurred in 2010. I think this a tragedy on many levels, for the father and daughter that lost their lives and their family of course, but also for Emma Czornobaj, facing prison, possibly for life and her family because of what appears to me to have been a tragic accident. Nothing was reported on how the ducklings fared, but the message seems to me to be loud and clear-when in Canada, do NOT stop for wildlife.
