US - Bishop arrested for hit and run

Quote:

Maryland's first female Episcopalian bishop will face charges over a hit-and-run crash that killed a cyclist in Baltimore, prosecutors say. Bishop Suffragan Heather Cook will be arrested for vehicular manslaughter over the death of Tom Palermo, 41. Prosecutor Marilyn Mosby said Ms Cook's blood-alcohol level was at .22 after the crash, almost triple the state's legal limit for driving.

Christian apologists say that one of the benefits of religion in general and Christianity in particular is that it provides a moral framework to guide people in their actions.

Quote:

An eyewitness said he found Mr Palermo on the road and while other witnesses called emergency services he went looking for the vehicle and found it at a light. "The windshield was completely smashed in, with a hole on the passenger side, and from the damage of the car, there was no doubt in my mind that was the car," Moncure Lyon said. "I asked the lady who was driving 'Are you all right?' Then the light turned green, she said 'Yes,' and she left."

WWJD ? Well I don't think he'd leave the scene of a fatal accident (if he existed). Then again (if he existed) he probably wouldn't be driving drunk.
