Parents are charged after their son, 7, is struck dead in a car accident

www.nbcnews.com

Gastonia, N.C., police charged the parents with involuntary manslaughter charges after allowing the victim and his brother to walk home alone from a nearby grocery store.

Not the first time this has happened either, here’s another similar case in Atlanta: https://abcnews.go.com/US/mother-boy-killed-hit-run-driver-probation-community/story?id=14158040

I wonder if the outcome would have been the same if it was a black driver and a white kid.
