In 2009, life tragically changed for Abdallah Khader. A two-year-old, Abdallah was riding in his mother’s car when a repeatedly convicted drunk driver slammed into the back of the Khader’s car as it sat at a red light. Although Abdallah survived the accident, the drunk driver – whose blood alcohol limit was three times the legal limit – left him in a vegetative state.
Last week, Abdallah’s parents celebrated their son’s fifth birthday. As any parent would, they hung balloons, placed signs and served cake. However, Abdallah was unaware of all of these acts of affection. Incredibly, legal challenges have resulted in continued delays, and even now the Khader family has gone without a trial of the man who robbed their son of the vitality of life.
Drunk driving kills and injures of thousands of American every year. However, as the tragedy of Abdallah Khader shows, the legal challenges are real and the wheels of justice turn slowly.
