What is with all the hate with the first woman who just drove off? She did 100% nothing, other then freak out. People who think she would have died are sick in the head.
The judge What did he do wrong? Did he sentence the drunk driver lightly? Was there not enough evidence? Did he pick the weakest sentence possible or was his hands tied? Not enough information, but overall I felt he did nothing wrong and seemed like a good person.
The drunk driver. I would still have saved him (cause I am not a monster), but I felt he was easily 100x worse then the other two. It was his fault that the boy died. He decided to drink, he decided to drive while drunk, and he was unable to avoid killing the child.

I would have tried saving Danica and Timothy for sure. From the flashbacks, it was obvious Timothy was heartbroken that he killed the young boy. He remained at the scene, did not drive off, and faced the consequences. Although it was his fault for causing the accident, it wasn't his fault for the light sentence. Also, because Timothy remained at the scene, I don't think Danica's testimony would have meant much for the case. Without or without her testimony, Timothy still plead guilty or was found guilty of manslaughter. She also admitted to making a mistake while being tortured so I could most likely forgive her.
I have mixed feelings on the judge. A 6-month sentence is way too light for killing a young boy while driving drunk. It is true that no matter the sentence, Jeff would not get his son back, but a sentence of 6 months is simply kicking a man while he's down. I don't know how the judge could live with himself for such a light sentence. Unless Timothy plead guilty for a lesser crime, I don't think sentencing guidelines for vehicular manslaughter (a felony) is anything less than one year in prison. According to Michigan law when it comes to driving drunk and killing someone
"(4) A person, whether licensed or not, who operates a motor vehicle in violation of subsection (1), (3), or (8) and by the operation of that motor vehicle causes the death of another person is guilty of a crime as follows:
(a) Except as provided in subdivisions (b) and , the person is guilty of a felony punishable by imprisonment for not more than 15 years or a fine of not less than $2,500.00 or more than $10,000.00, or both. The judgment of sentence may impose the sanction permitted under section 625n. If the vehicle is not ordered forfeited under section 625n, the court shall order vehicle immobilization under section 904d in the judgment of sentence."

Whichever I'd choose, I wouldn't decide halfway through the trap once they were already pretty much f-cked either way.
I also wouldn't kill Jigsaw when my wife has a mysterious contraption around her throat and he's been trying to teach me the ugliness of vengeance for two hours. In fact, if I knew anything about Jigsaw and his "appreciate life!" bs, I'd try to save everyone purely because I'd assume he has something awful waiting for me if I don't.
