Lane Garrison Relives Deadly Drunk Driving Crash

46. Very intense, but important video. I sure don't know Lane Garrison, so I can't say whether or not it was "acting". But I can't imagine anyone that has gone through what he went through, would need to "act". I'm sure he suffers for what he's done, so I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and believe he is being genuine in his emotions. I sure hope a lot of teens see this and think about it. The saying is true, that if only one person lives because of it, it's worth it.

47. He stole a baseball card and went to Jail; he was killed by Alex, the FBI agent.

I agree, Lane is at least admitting it and not blaming his actions on other people like LOHAN. And why is this girl still walking around. Lohan will never take a note of anything. Lohan is hard headed to the core. She will do it again and we all know this.

BUT……….We also have to remember that Lane is an actor and has NOT been officially sentenced; therefore Lane could be acting this way in order to get a lighter sentence. And WHY is it, that when we do something like this, we are still in jail awaiting sentencing. But these celebrities are out walking around for months waiting until that day. I just saw this man out an about a few months ago still having a great time. Other people awaiting sentencing for manslaughter usually are not allowed to do that.

I think Lane is doing this to get a lighter sentence. I mean he should have done this months ago, but Lane knew how to play his timing / Sentencing. Lane is an actor AND he just wants a lighter sentence this week…..that’s why he done this video AND wanted it posted on the internet so that the judges can see him before his court date….I have NO pity for Lane at all.

49. I think it's better he did the PSA than the childrens parents. CAN YOU imagine reliving that. I'm sure they do every day. I don't think he was acting. That man has done nothing but go to church and cry since it happened. That will scare the HELL out of kids and hopefully save a life. I think it's long and meant to be shown at schools. Not like a commercial.

50. Whatever his sentence may turn out to be it will not be good enough. He took a life. I would advocate the death penalty for drunk drivers who kill. This victim lost his life, his family forever scarred. Lay him on a gurney and inject him with his anti-crime vaccine is what I wish for in cases like this.

Drunk drivers are no better than serial killers. You kill someone you should forfeit your own life.

52. He should do at least four years. Who cares if he did a commercial. Does not fix the family, who has to deal with this for the rest of there lives.

53. He will definetly get time, celebrity or not....
He should do time, although, he has to live with this for life...
Put yourself in his shoes. He will never forget what he has done.
People do make mistakes, some big and some not so, everyone who comments on this story remember that. I am sure you have made one or two of your own.
Look at the entire picture. This video will FOR SURE make even one person think twice before getting behind the wheel drunk. That could save even one life.

54. I really do not understand the hateful comparisons to Hilton and especially Lohan. This guy pleaded GUILTY....he did not lie or try to make up some cover.....he pleaded GUILTY and in every interview he has done he has expressed his guilt, HIS mistake and remorse for what he did. Lohan doesn't even see anything wrong on her part. You won't be seeing her standing up to do any PSA's unless she is FORCED to do so (and probably drunk when she does it so that she doesn't really know what she is saying). This guy who has shown remorse and has taken realand genuine efforts for that to be seen will serve way more time than Lohan ever will.....and while some of you will say well he killed someone and she didn't I say that right there is the problem with our DUI laws. More people who kill by DUI are REPEAT offenders....ones who don't get the message the first, second or third time. Their "luck" runs out and they finally do end up killing. Lohan already has two against her and has yet to even go to trial for the first one!! And then there is Hilton who made a fortune telling the world how she is a changed woman and we'd see.....and yes we have seen her shop, play with her dogs and go on vacations! She indeed is making a huge difference in the world....well the economy anyway!!

55. Of course he looks contrite. Duh. He is an actor. it is doubtful he will serve any time if he is sentenced to county jail good old sherriff Baca will surely set him loose in no time at all.

58. Its only a matter of time before Lindsay or Brittany kill someone....how are they all so stupid???

59. Anyone caught driving under the influence of any unlawful substance should be made to attend the preperation of a persons body killed by same. They should also be made to work in a Major City Hospital emergency room for a minimum of 6 months without pay !. They should be made to work in the morgue to prepare the bodies for the undertakers during that same time.
