This is a picture I took in September of a half-naked lunatic, armed with a brick.

This is not "imaginary."

A passenger disarmed him.

Under his plea bargain, ex-FDNY firefighter Michael Peña got a lighter prison sentence for the DWI crash that killed 23-year-old Justin Diaz.
The judge called Diaz "every parent's dream."
He called Peña "every parent's nightmare."

@ZachReports Congrats, Zach!

@Lovetogarden1 It is a devastating time. My cousin just earned his degree in aeronautics. We gave it to him in his coffin. That's what this monster took away.

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

My cousin, Justin Diaz, was just 23, on his way to work an overtime shift at LaGuardia when a drunk, high off-duty firefighter killed him.

We’re fighting for justice—and it’s costly.

@Lovetogarden1 Yes. He was drunk, and he also smoked weed and did coke. He was going 83 mph when he blew a red light.

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

@Lovetogarden1 I fought against this madness. I never imagined explaining to my family why this happened.

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

@Lovetogarden1 Thank you. My cousin's killer is free on the street right now. It is devastating.

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

Many of you know my cousin was killed by a drunk, high, off-duty firefighter.

I started Justice for Justin Diaz on FB to organize. No killer should be walking free on the streets while my 23 year old cousin is dead.

Firefighter Michael Pena walked out of court yesterday with a remorseless expression. He took my cousin Justin's life.

@queenoftheclick Thank you. When I think about a 15-year sentence, it makes me sick. It is not long enough for taking a life.

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

@DavidKunca @VictimsRightsUS Thank you.

@buttonspony Thank you.

@xrae Thank you.

@S1sterDisco I appreciate your kindness. My family does too.

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

@S1sterDisco It is. My 23 year old cousin just earned a degree in aeronautics. He took an extra shift at LaGuardia and was off to work when he was killed. My whole family is devastated.

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

@AlBeachGuy Yes. Judges should be able to remand people who drink, use coke and marijuana, and then speed through the streets.

This is dangerous.

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

@SoupandtheCity Thank you.

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

Justin will not walk the streets again, and his life was worth so much more than a piddling $5,000.

We will not rest until we get #JusticeForJustin

[Candice Giove @candicegiove]

While Pena stole everything from Justin & was charged with MANSLAUGHTER, bail was set at $50K- meaning he only had to pay $5K.

I want everyone to think about this. There's no justice in this world, especially in NY, when we let MURDERERS walk on our streets for $5,000. NONE.
