thanks annoyed,
Why is it the first thing people want to talk about is race? the north bend hit and run was terrible, but it did happen on a really rainy night on a parking lot road where lanes are not clearly defined. The brookings hit and run was in the middle of the day plus he was found with meth! I have lived all around the country and I have not seen any place that is so concerned with race. It's 2007 people! No one is trying to take down the "white man"!

You people obviously know nothing about Oregon's legal system and sound like ignorant racists. Just the type of people who give Coos County a bad name.

I was just wondering, when you kill someone why do you run? Even if it's an accident?

let me get this straight. If he's not white, then complain about how he is illegal and that they shouldn't be here BUT if he's a white guy then let's complain about who is getting punished differently? What's really going on? Both guys are criminals, both guys are criminals. Both guys are individuals as are both cases. The white/nonwhite comments are starting to become a joke and CB/NB residents are starting to show a true and ugly side on these boards.

Here's the truth guys, two seperate incidents, two seperate sets of facts. For one, looks like this guy was hit in broad daylight. They were able to find this person later that night not days later with a vehicle in hiding. White/Black/Brown doesn't matter it's all about the facts and what you can prove.

if you are white you pay full price and if you are not the powers that be dont want to look bad to the ones that are not thats my 2 cents

Linda, the difference is the COUNTIES.
Breaking the law and killing someone is apparently taken more seriously in Curry County than it is in Coos County.
