67 - Marco Muzzo & The Driving While Intoxicated Epidemic

Das Criminal

On Sunday September 27th, 2015 Marco Muzzo landed at Toronto Pearson International Airport. He was returning on a private jet from a trip to Miami. He got into his SUV and drove off, reaching 85 kilometers per hour (or ~53 mph).

At around 4:10 PM, Muzzo’s SUV sped past a stop sign in Vaughan (a city in Ontario, north of Toronto and within the GTA), smashing a family minivan. Gary Neville, 65, was killed instantly. Children Daniel (9), Harry (5), and Milaga (Milly, 2) Neville-Lake also died from their injuries. Neriza Neville and Josephina Frias, also in the minivan, were severely injured. The children's father, Edward, would later die by suicide.

In this episode, we dissect this case and the controversy surrounding the sentencing and parole of Marco Muzzo, as well as better solutions to the epidemic of driving while intoxicated or under the influence.
