Guy made a bad decision and then paid the ultimate price  

This is short version, not what he deserved but bad decisions sometimes have horrible ramifications. Most of us have a story where if our luck had turned bad we would be in much worse shape, his life ended.

[Big Turk]

Oh damn...Haskins was in the K-Hole when he died?? That explains some things...

Hey Turk, He wouldn't have been able to drive or walk 'in a K-hole'.

 

A K-hole is the term used for a really strong peak of a Ketamine high when the body and mind are really detached and you can't interact with anything around you much less move.

 

K doesn't last as long as other psychedelics. Start to finish is usually about an hour give or take.

 

The high was probably long gone, but it wasn't metabolized out of his system which is how it was detected by toxicology.

Ehh, when I DJ'd in clubs back in the day, people were in the K-Hole all the time.

I agree that most of this is likely true and anyone with sense would know what he did doesn’t make him a scumbag or anything else but immature and irresponsible. Plenty young guys are like that. Many who are blessed enough to survive that phase go on to mature and do better. It’s a shame he wasn’t one of those. RIP Haskins. Folks should stop judging them and think back to the dumb crap they did that could have ended similarly.

He is absolutely a scumbag for driving while impaired. He is lucky he only killed himself and nobody else.

Smh…so anyone who has driven drunk are scumbags. Gotcha.

[K D]

So he was on ketamine and drunk driving and he had a chick from the club in the car with him? And his wife who he was cheating on still got that full body tattoo of him? Oops

Absolutely. Every single one.

 

Everyone is worked up about gun violence and school shootings, as they should be.

 

But you are trying to normalize something that results in over 10,000 deaths every single year? Completely preventable deaths just due to drunk drivers making stupid, illegal, dangerous decisions and thinking it is normal and ok.

 

Screw anyone who gets behind the wheel impaired. Lock them all up and throw away the key.

Most likely the lady was a stripper from the club

What about someone like me?  For instance,  I got sober 21 years ago and turned my life around.   Should I be locked up because I drank and drove at 20 y/o?

Yes.  Go turn yourself in at the nearest police station, scumbag.

Guy was 3 times the legal limit.  Thats pretty irresponsible.  Could have easily killed someone else.

don’t worry - we all change and evolve over years and decades. Odds are there are a variety of new scum baggy things you do!

 

that said, the minimization of drunk driving to avoid self introspection is definitely something that I hope changes. “Everybody was doing it” sure should be replaced by “I really messed up and made regrettable decisions” for a lot of folks.

Good for you. I'm truly glad you aren't putting innocent people or yourself at risk anymore.

 

You totally deserved to be locked up when you were doing that. Now that you aren't doing that, you don't.

 

I have no sympathy for people who drink and drive and no patience for those who normalize it. I have friends who are dead because of people like you used to be. And if you have a problem with that, I really don't care.

Wasn’t Haskins a pedestrian when he was struck ?

Interesting how his wife is asking for support on this matter. No details have come out on assistant or even how she got home.

 

I have seen life insurance contracts where if you were under influence they did not pay or payment was reduced.

Yes but he was driving (reportedly) until he ran out of gas.

Explains why he ran out of gas, was shitfaced and high and had no clue wtf he was doing. Really sad.

1 year later update...

Essentially Haskins' estate is suing the truck driver that hit him for the truck being in poor condition and that's why it didn't stop in time and additionally they believe Haskins was drugged in an attempted robbery and that's why he was walking around the middle of the highway. Just a very sad and bizarre story that just keeps getting weirder

That’s a crazy development. The last part about being drugged seems outlandish but possible. Sounds like driver of the truck could be at fault.

I live right by this highway. Has anyone said how he got onto 595 on foot? That's absolutely tragic and wild. That is a major highway with cars and trucks going 80+ over 5-6 lanes each way. Unbelievable

 

Yes, that is what i was thinking, a busy highway. 

 

Out of gas, yes, but call a service station to bring you some.

 

And then, with 25% of your blood alcohol, you could have them take you home too.

The the simplest explanation is usually the correct one. I think some accountability is needed here and in our society as a whole. If you go out clubbing all night it's not going to take some kind of weird conspiracy situation to get you intoxicated enough to walk into oncoming traffic or a truck that has faulty brakes. But whatever it takes for them to get some money out of the insurance company I guess
