Looks like Stephen Catalano is a person never to be trusted to stay off the road on his own.
So lets help him stay off the road.
Lets put him in a 4'x9' self contained prison cell for the rest of his life. This will be the only way the rest of us well be protected from him because of himself.

Stephen Catalano, 37, the driver of a Jeep that crashed into the Saturn on Country Road 101, was charged with driving while on drugs.
Records show that Catalano, of West Babylon, has an extensive record of previous offenses, including seven convictions for aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle.

The SOB could only be stopped from driving if he'd been in jail for all the other 'extensive previous offenses'. So, why wasn't he in jail. Now----he will be in jail-he killed someone.
Another shit-for-brains off the roads! Perhaps too late.

this is why the law needs to change. too many people get behind the wheel on drugs and alcohol. it needs to be ONE STRIKE AND YOU"RE OUT! if you mess up even one time, you go to jail for a long long time. then people would act smart. but criminals know they'll never get in trouble, so they flout the law with impunity.

And after all the lawyers get involved with the boohoo saga of Steven Catalano-a Jury is picked-A Trial begins. The trial ends in Vehicular Manslaughter or worse..probably worse-he was on a controlled substance-we will be protected from him. Unfortunately for him-there is NO protection where he's going.

And one suspects a civil suit will find that he has no assets worth seizing.

Sometimes sharia law looks pretty good.

Catalano is lucky he did this in Suffolk, if it were Nassau County, Rice would be upping his charge to First Degree Murder.

Not so fast. Was Catalano the cause of the accident and was the cause due to the fact that he was on drugs?
Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, if the charges don't fit you must acquit.

"Records show that Catalano, of West Babylon, has an extensive record of previous offenses, including seven convictions for aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle."

Why was this animal not in a jail or mental hospital? This never should have happened. What has happened to our criminal justice system?

This is not the first time I have seen a driver with a record like this back on the road. And it is not even the second.

Why the hel are all these unlicensed animals still driving. We need alot more road blocks to stop them,and the perps must do hard time, breaking rocks 17 hours a day,when relesed the need to be under survalance with the new technology. This is where tax dollars must go not to corrupt lawyers....

The STATE also needs to be held accountable for not tossing him in jail sooner; all those offenses warranted some jail time prior to this.

God Bless the family; God has their Angelica now.
