Man Charged in DUI Death Denied Bond

Francisco Ferrer, 32, of Dallas, was denied bond Wednesday morning. Ferrer is charged with DUI and vehicular homicide in the death of a Grady Hospital EMT.

Judge Robert James denied bond to Francisco Ferrer, 32, of Dallas Wednesday morning. Ferrer is in the death of 37 from Bremen, an EMT at Grady Hospital.

Ferrer was traveling west on Interstate 20 when his Honda Element struck Strickland’s Harley Davidson from behind, said Gordy Wright, a spokesman for the Georgia State Patrol.

Assistant District Attorney Ryan Leonard told the court that Ferrer was drunk with a blood alcohol content of .125, the Douglas County Sentinel reported. The impact ejected Strickland from the motorcycle and into the center travel lane, where a tractor-trailer truck hit him.

“I just don’t know how you wouldn’t know immediately that you had hit a Harley—that’s a big bike— unless you were so drunk that you were incoherent to all that was going on around you,” James said, the Sentinel reported. “I do feel that there is a likelihood that you would do this again. Mr. Ferrer, you are not the first person to stand before me accused of having killed someone after a fun night at Fannie’s. Bond is denied.”

I hope this Horrible, Menace and Scum Trash piece of crap rots behind bars. And many other things as well as he spends his time behind bars for killing such a LOVING, CARING and NOBLE man like Jason Strickland who Labored with his Soul saving lives of others as a Grady EMT and was killed after getting off from his job while this filth was leaving a 'strip club' after partying all night. Talk about Good and Evil, this is a picture perfect battle between the two. I PRAY that this 'Ferrer' Filth gets every single day the law will allow for what he has done. It could have also been a family with children in the car. Not that this demon will ever care. This is just past the one year anniversary of Jason's Death. Please Judge and Court, put this demon behind bars where he belongs. He is a BULLY, on the streets, on the internet and I'm sure to anyone who knows him.

A Picture of the Battle between GOOD and EVIL here. You have a Good man, Jason Strickland who spends his life and heart saving the lives of others as a Grady EMT who just got off from work and was on his way home. You have EVIL, (JR FERRER) who leaves a trashy strip club after spending an obscene amount of money on strippers and getting drunk, gets into his weapon and runs down Strickland leaving stricklands motorcycle stuck like a bug to the front of his car and throwing Strickland into the path of an on coming 18 wheeler who detroys Stricklands body then is hit a couple more times until his body is now in pieces littering the interstate where he spent his days saving lives on. Strickland had children at home waiting who will never see their daddy again, then you have FERRER, who has a Baby at home and is out at 4am at a strip club and who will have a sorry piece of crap daddy all her life. Ferrer will forever be a burden to society now as I'm sure he already was. He took one of societies best, Jason Strickland and put him in baggies. I PRAY this UNITES a CITY, A County, A State, A Country and everyone should become OUTRAGED that this atrocity happened and will not be let go. A shame that old fashioned hangings have been outlawed. This one BEGS for it. I hope this Trash never sees the light of day again.

Just a Crying Shame! This man looks evil. I knew Jason and as the 1 year anniversary past of his death, I went to a place that I remember Jason loved and cried. He was such a Wonderful and Endearing Man only to have his life so unimaginably taken in such a violent way just makes me sick thinking of his last moments. I am a Christian and I have to pray that God will forgive me for the Horrible Anger and thoughts I have against this demonic creature that will live his life once this is past. I can Only BEG the Justice System will Deliver a Swift and Mighty Hand of Justice Against him. He will also have to meet his maker and I pray that I do not have so spend eternity in a place with people like him. You are a DISGRACE and SHAME to the human race Mr. Ferrer. I do not address you with any respect. God Bless Jason's Families and Children that will never know their wonderful Daddy. Love you Jason, Judy.

I am torn on this decision. Even though homosexuality is a sin, it is no greater a sin than lyingRead More or cheating. If the troop had boys who were not Christian & they were committing those sins then that sin was being brought into the church. I think Christians need to remember that no one sin is greater than another. I think the parents of the boy scouts would have to determine if they wanted their child to participate in the troop if their was a homosexual in their group. However, the church hosted the Boy Scouts upon a certain charter. When that charter was changed then the church has the right to decide if they want to continue the association. I know of other churches that ended their hosting of Boy Scouts last year because the group was becoming too politically polarizing & they felt that conflicted with the ministry of the church. It is a fine line with views on both sides but I feel each church has to decide what is best for them...it is after all their facilities.

Do we not remember who Jesus surrounded himself with? Don't believe for one minute that there is notRead More one homosexual in your congregation, or for that matter an adulterer, a fornicator, a thief, a liar, the list goes on. And if you are a real stickler, any divorcee that has dated or remarried is committing sin every day. I do not believe in the gay lifestyle but I do believe in what good the boy scouts do. Shame on you for abandoning them when they need you the most
