"An Oscar-winning screenwriter of "Pulp Fiction" has been sentenced to a year in jail for causing a fatal traffic crash in Southern California. Roger Avary was sentenced Tuesday in a Ventura court. He also received five years of probation. Avary pleaded guilty in August to gross vehicular manslaughter and drunken driving for the 2008 crash that killed a passenger in Avary's Mercedes in Ventura County. Authorities say Avary's car was traveling at more than 100 mph when it crashed into a telephone pole. Avary's wife was ejected from the vehicle and was treated for non-life-threatening injuries (Fandango)."
If this was you or me we would be in jail for no less then 15 year. This is just like the Stallworth case, but worse since this dude was going 100 MPH with his wife in the car!!!! Anyways, Pulp Fiction is one of my favorite movies of all time. Maybe that's why he got off so easy....
