That is a real stupid reason not to make one phone call and say I'm sorry. Instead he used his time to delete information from the internet about his business dealings.
I think it is pretty logical to wait until after the funeral, and then not call at all once you realize they are seeking council against you.
why is him deleting his information a big deal to you?

I hate you as much as the next guy, but I don't think you're out of line. A couple people in here are simply emotionally invested in this girl and fatal accidents, which is understandable. Those people haven't had a problem jumping to conclusions about the guy involved but are seemingly appalled when the same is done with the girl.
Full disclosure: I haven't read every page of this thread.

His house is appraised for over $1.5MM. He's pretty well off evidently.

I think you need to put yourself in that situation.
I have a brother. My brother has friends. I live with my brother (Kristi lived with her brother), so I've met most of his friends several times. If my brother's friend that had met not only me, but our out-of-town parents (article says Jason did), crashed the car that killed my brother.. I'd anticipate hearing from him. I'd anticipate remorse and us getting through it together in some way. Maybe I wouldn't be able to forgive initially, but I think I'd appreciate his sorrow towards our family. Kristi's family has handled this very well and I would like to think they'd accept if it was an accident and he was coming to them brokenhearted and sorry. Even if he was drinking and driving.. Kristi was an adult woman who got into a car with him and I think eventually, her family would accept that. They're reasonable people.
I imagine myself being a bit surprised that said friend who knows our family has not reached out. So like any normal person, I'd look the friend up. And when I saw that everything was gone from the internet, I'd immediately wonder what's up. How sketch does that come off? You and I may both think that him deleting all of that stuff won't change anything.. but the average Joe does not know that. It immediately looks sketchy as frick. Add in that the guy is wealthy and connected, what is her family immediately going to assume?
They aren't well-to-do NOLA people. They have zero idea what kind of power this guy's people may actually have. And hey, maybe it's zero. But when he's spending the days after his supposed friend's death clearing his traces on the internet instead of reaching out to her family that he KNOWS, it looks pretty fricked up.
And sorry, but I don't buy "I tried to talk to them, but didn't". Sounds like a plot to a bad movie. I understand he is aiming for the least serious punishment ever and protecting his arse, but you have to understand that choosing to go the route he did rather than coming forward immediately and grieving alongside the family is going to have these consequences. People are going to assume he's hiding something.
As for he and Kristi's relationship, I don't know him. Friends/family members have painted him as a guy that was eager to get her attention, and I know he was a trusted regular at her workplace, so her getting into a car with him is not "weird" by any means. One of my regulars at my old job came in with a new sports car (not expensive like a Lambo) and the first thing I did was go outside to sit in it. Had he offered to take it for a spin, I certainly wouldn't have said no. I knew the man for 3 years. Granted, he was 60-something and not "trying" for anything, but still. Jason may be a complete idiot for wasting his time hanging around Kristi at all considering he is a husband and father.. but I really don't believe it was anything more than her taking a ride in a friend's car. She was picky
And being attractive/so charismatic, and having worked in bars/restaurants for a long time, being hit on by wealthy unattractive men is nothing she was unfamiliar with. She wasn't jumping into bed with them. Accepting free drinks and going for a ride in friend's car is hardly scandalous.

I think he went about this poorly, but I don't really see people jumping to conclusions about the guy. He might be a stand-up dude. I certainly don't think he's some POS, and if people are saying that in this thread, remember we are on the internet where everyone is a POS. I've said in other posts it may very well be an accident. I just think it is being handled poorly by some of the media and Jason/his people. I think the great lengths to hide has caused him to look guilty of something in the eyes of others.

As long as sports cars and Viagra are available, it doesn't matter how old, guys are always trying, even if he was playing the friendly gramps role.

He's acting under not only extreme duress, but also at the advice of his attorney. I'm not sticking up for this dude. it's a terrible situation in general, but don't act like you wouldn't listen to your attorney in the same circumstances. I could nearly guarantee hes not sitting behind a computer going back deleting traces of himself. He or his attorney, had someone hired for that.
Posted on 5/13/16 at 10:42 am to darnol91
yea, exactly. Not only that, he had his own shite to clean up with his wife im sure, on top of the injuries he sustained. I think waiting until after the funeral would have been fair.
even with that said, the article states he met the mother and brother at the restaurant. They were from baton rouge. Chances are he didnt know them.

Well of course he isn't. I am fully aware there are others involved and guiding him. Doesn't sound like he was the best decision maker to begin with. I just think there's a point where being a bit human might be the best course of action. His attorneys had to anticipate that as soon as the family knows who this guy is and sees all of his info being erased, they're going to take it further. They had to see how shady this was going to make him look. They had to know the media was going to dig into who he is connected to and blast it -- making it look even shadier. Either it was a really terrible game plan.. or they're prepping for something we haven't seen yet.
Posted on 5/13/16 at 10:45 am to darnol91
I don't know this guy any better than Bill from Fresno, but I'm sure it'll be construed as me taking his side. There's already been a number of people say that the only way a local tries to take that turn at a high speed would be due to intoxication. His name is plastered all over the internet in conjunction with this incident. He's already been ruled guilty in the minds of some; if innocent, I understand him trying to protect his reputation.
Posted on 5/13/16 at 10:49 am to Louie T
To be fair, he could have been sober to the bone and still be "guilty" of something. If he was driving at a high rate of speed, he was recklessly driving. Whether or not he was intoxicated hasn't really weighed on my mind much. I don't know that it matters since he seemingly drove like a dickhead regardless.
Now, of course, it may come out that he was sober and driving 35MPH. Doubtful, but hey.. it might be the case.
I think any of us would find it shady as hell if our loved one was killed and her "killer" (or his people) was focused on covering up his mere existence and keeping everything hush. There may be good reason, but let's not act like any of us wouldn't find it shady. His wealth/status and the lack of ANY charges (even just reckless driving) only furthers those feelings.

He owns his own business, why wouldn't he try and protect that? How is that shady? because you can't openly search for him on the Internet? You realize how fricking dumb that sounds?

I don't blame her family for whatever feelings they hold; it's a traumatizing ordeal. That doesn't mean I can't be empathetic towards his actions if he's innocent.
Posted on 5/13/16 at 11:01 am to Lester Earl
If you don't understand how the family could feel the way they do, I don't know what to tell you. I've been reasonable to you and you're just being an insensitive prick. I AGREED with several of your points, but that's not good enough. Nope. Everyone is being "fricking dumb" for finding the situation off. To not have any empathy as to how others are seeing it the way they are is incomprehensible to me. Strangers on the media articles see it, those involved see it, people here see it.. you just for some reason think it is "fricking dumb" that people find it sketchy.
We might find out it is "fricking dumb" for everyone to have pointed out the foul smell.. we might not. I don't see where people raising concerns about it is stupid though. I just don't see it. I'm glad you're enlightened enough to see it though.
If you read the article, the family specifically points to his rate of speed.. not whether or not he was sober. I think it is reasonable to wonder why people are talking about "if he is innocent". Innocent of what? Not driving fast? That type of crash doesn't occur at 35MPH.

You are defending him by claiming we are "crucifying him" without any information. Then you ask:
So I quoted this from NOLA.COM to show it is known that he was speeding.
The fact that she was wearing a seat belt is irrelevant because her wearing/not wearing a seat belt did not cause him to drive recklessly.
Are you claiming she should have been wearing one or she shouldn't have been? He is saying not wearing one saved his life maybe wearing one contributed to her death.
This is the BS statement you pulled out of your arse that is obviously trying to throw shade at the girl:
And I just included this one because of the way you just glossed over it tells everything we need to know about why you are taking this position:
No one wants to see this guy "crucified" as has been stated by many people in this thread including people who knew the victim. They just want to see him held accountable. Unfortunately it would appear that actions taken by himself (or possibly his family or attorneys) and apparently the NOPD make it look like he is doing everything possible to avoid being held accountable.

I just like how 95% of the time you pretend to be this super rational girlfriend/coworker/friend/foodie and something like this comes up and that whole act goes out the window.
You know these threads never end well when you are an acquaintance to person involved. You aren't doing the victim any justice, I can tell you that.
