VERY IMPORTANT CASE UPDATE: On September 30, 2019, Thomas Hahn was sentenced to serve a MINIMUM of 20 years to a MAXIMUM of 30 years in prison, TO BE SERVED CONSECUTIVELY!!! Hahn was also ordered to serve 3-5 years for driving while intoxicated, causing serious impairment. That sentence is to be served CONCURRENT to the primary sentence. Hahn was also ordered to pay, $260,000 in restitution to the family. (This will be IN ADDITION to any amount the family is entitled to and awarded under a civil lawsuit). FINALLY, a DRUNK driver is given a much deserved sentence for such a heinous crime. (Thank you Judge Michelle Rick for giving a just & swift sentence to this animal).

Thank you for the update. I am glad that the monster is serving his first twenty years, and then they will determine if he will get out (if he actually makes it twenty years in prison) and then decide if he should serve the remaining ten or if he goes out on probation. He will be 75 at the end of twenty years, and he will be 85 if he has to serve the remaining TEN years.

How would he be able to pay back that much money though? I've always wondered that. He'll make a pittance at a prison job, maybe, so does car insurance cover at least some of it?

@@ElizabethT45 - I believe each state is different but in my state insurance only pays up to the max coverage for the greater of the policies. Hypothetically, if the shithead had $20k in coverage per accident and the family had $50k in coverage then the max the family could get would be $50. Health insurance companies do not like to pay for expenses incurred in an accident but I have always used my health insurance to get treated for motor vehicle accidents (Yeah - I share the road with too many asses.) then there is a discussion for reimbursement to the health insurance when the accident claim is settled. It is all very messy. As always, here in the US there is a LOT of support for the shitheads while the rest of us are struggling to survive. =(

The death of the 3 year old hurt the most. He didn’t get to experience life yet.

And she mandated his sentence as follows: He was ordered to serve 10-15 years for EACH death, and that time must be served consecutively. So he MUST serve a MINIMUM of 20 years, to a MAXIMUM of 30 years. He CANNOT be eligible for ANY parole, UNTIL AFTER he has served his first 20 years. He also was sentenced 3-5 years for driving while intoxicated causing serious injury, to be served concurrent to the primary sentence. And he was ordered to pay, $260,000 in restitution to the family. This is IN ADDITION TO any other amount the family is entitled to and awarded under a civil lawsuit. #RIPMommaAndReedLaHaie

I used to drink and drive all the time, not worrying or caring about how incredibly stupid and selfish I was. By the grace of God, I was never in an accident. Now, I have been sober many years and am grateful I no longer have such a disregard for human life. May this gentleman find the courage to keep going 🙏🏼

My heart goes out to this dad & family for their loss. I lost a cousin in 1977 because of a drunk driver. Then in 1980 my sister-in-law was killed by a drunk driver. The pain of missing them still hurts.

You are an absolute angel. Please know that I cry with you and for you. Any person who thinks driving under the influence is no big deal needs to watch this.

I really couldn’t imagine how to cope with all this if I woke up to this ... my kids are my life and I honestly have no idea how I would react to this... it’s a real horror story bless the father and family.

Such a sad story for such a beautiful young family. I am permanently disabled due to a drunk driver who didn't end up with a scratch on him. It was his 4th DUI.

My heart hasn't faced what you have sir, so I can't think of what to say other than I'm sorry for your loss, and may God's blessings get you through this. Thanks to your son other children got to live. 🌹🌹

What a beautiful little boy, to be taken so tragically from someone that have any values for others lives. He lives on in others and some day he will greet you at heavens gate with his mommy.

When I have a husband and kids, I’ll hug them tighter and tighter each day, no matter how much it annoys them. You never know when it’ll be the last.

What HEARTLESS JERKS would give this video a thumbs down???? I SURE HOPE no one in YOUR family ever has to go through this! Thank you for sharing this.

Looked so much like his dad and blond like mom. What a strong father - so loving.

And again I ask, 15 years for taking 2 lives??? This was NO simple car "accident" that claimed these lives. THIS was a DRUNK DRIVER!! WHY is THAT NOT MURDER??? The laws MUST change. A drunk driver can break the law by driving drunk (a crime), and kill 2 people while driving drunk. How is THAT any different than a person commits a robbery (a crime), and kills the person he is trying to rob. (THEY call that MURDER). BOTH situations ARE EXACTLY the same. I'm so sorry for this family. 😪
