Subject: CORRECTED WEBSITE ADDRESS IN BLUE TO LEAVE A COMMENT REGARDING MY BROTHER'S MURDER-PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!
THIS ARTICLE BELOW WAS IN THE DAILY BREEZE THE DAY AFTER THE ARAIGNMENT IN WHICH THE KILLER OF OUR BROTHER WALKED OUT FREE WITH NO BAIL.
THOSE OF YOU THAT KNOW ME, ARE AWARE THAT MY LIFE WAS FOREVER CHANGEDWHEN MY BROTHER'S LIFE WAS SNUFFED OUT BY A 29 YR OLD PUNK KID THAT CHOSE TO MAKE 3 FATEFUL DECISIONS ON AUGUST 12,2007.
1. DAVID WAYNE ROBERTS,29 CHOSE TO DRIVE RECKLESSLY AT 80 MILES AN HOUR AT 6:45AM ON WHAT WAS A BEAUTIFUL SUNDAY MORNING. MY BROTHER WAS AN EARLY RISER, HE GO TO HIS CHURCH AND SET UP FOR SERVICES, THEN HE WOULD MAKE HIS USUAL TRIP TO HIS STORAGE FACILITY TO CHAT IT UP AND HAVE COFFEE WITH TONY, FREDDIE AND TOM, SOMETHING HE HAD DONE FOR YEARS. AFTER THAT HE WOULD GO TO THE RECYCLING PLACE TO TURN IN THE CANS HE HAD COLLECTED THE DAYS BEFORE...SOMETHING HE ALSO DID SINCE I WAS A LITTLE GIRL. THE PAPER HAS FOCUSED SO MUCH ATTENTION ON THE FACT THAT HE WAS "HOMELESS"AND COLLECTED CANS....THOSE THING MY FRIENDS WERE HIS CHOICE. SADLY HE WAS SAVING HIS MONEY FROM THE CANS TO HELP WITH HIS EXPENSES TO MOVE TO BAKERSFIELD WITH ME.....IN ONE WEEK. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF HE HAD A BED IN A BRICK HOUSE OR IF HE SLEPT IN HIS TRUCK, HE DID NOT DESERVE TO DIE AT THE HANDS OF THIS PERSON, LET ALONE THE GRUSOME WAY HIS LIFE WAS ENDED.
2. DAVID WAYNE ROBERTS,29 CHOSE TO RUN A RED LIGHT THAT WAS ALREADY RED FOR QUITE SOME TIME. MY BROTHER WAS DRIVING THROUGH THE INTERSECTION IN HIS FULLY PAID FOR, FULLY INSURED VEHICLE. HE DID HAVE A JOB. HE PAID HIS BILLS ON TIME AND FOLLOWED THE LAW BY HAVING CAR INSURANCE. JUST AS WE ALL MUST DO. JUST AS YOU AND I DO SO MANY TIMES EVERY DAY. MY BROTHER WAS SMASHED INTO.
3. DAVID WAYNE ROBERTS,29 CHOSE TO RUN FROM THE SCENE LIKE A COWARD DROPPING HIS CELL PHONE AND LEAVING HIS CHEVY AVALANCHE AT THE SCENE.....TO ADD TO HIS HORRIFIC CRIME....MANY WITNESSES WATCHED HIM STAND ON THE CORNER NEAR THE WRECKAGE STANDING THERE WATCHING AS MY BROTHER WAS TRAPPED IN THE CARNAGE BURNING TO DEATH. AFTER HE HAD ENOUGH OF THAT HE RAN FROM THE SCENE ON FOOT. SOMETHING MY BROTHER WOULD NEVER HAVE DONE, HE WOULD HAVE RISKED HIS OWN LIFE TO PULL THE INJURED FROM THE WRECKAGE. WE WERE TAUGHT BY OUR WONDERFUL PARENTS TO ALWAYS DO THE RIGHT THING.
The Araignment for DAVID WAYNE ROBERTS,29 was on April 17,2008. As the article says, he was allowed to walk out free with NO BAIL. He EVEN got to pick the day and time he would turn himself into the Carson Sheriff's Dept to be BOOKED AND RELEASED!!!!!!
EVERYONE PLEASE UNDERSTAND, THIS PERSON HAS NEVER SPENT 1 DAY BEHIND BARS FOR THIS SLAUGHTER OF A HUMAN BEING. HE GOT AN ATTORNEY BEFORE THE POLICE CAUGHT HIM FOR THE CRIME, THEY COULD NOT ARREST HIM BECAUSE HE HAD AN ATTORNEY!
I am writing you to ask a favor...if you are as enraged as we are by just this small handful of facts in the death of our loved one, yes, there is so much more.....The Autopsy Report shows how my Brother's beautiful body was mangeled into pieces and every bone and organ was shredded to bits and the Third Degree Burns over his body........

A Compton man charged with fleeing the scene of a crash that killed a man who lived in his truck near Alondra Park
was allowed Thursday to remain free.
David Roberts, 29, appeared in Compton court and pleaded not guilty to vehicular manslaughter and hit-and-run charges, but was told he could surrender Monday at the Carson sheriff's station jail and remain free on his own recognizance.
Roberts is charged in the Aug. 12 crash that killed Bill Cunha, 62, at Alondra Boulevard and Broadway in Carson. Deputies said Roberts ran the red light at 80 mph and smashed into Cunha's car.
Roberts fled the scene, but deputies identified him quickly because he abandoned his car and dropped his cellular telephone. After months of investigation, deputies sought charges against him this week.
Roberts was expected to surrender, but a deputy district attorney in the courtroom did not pursue bail, telling Judge Joel Wallenstein he had made an agreement with Roberts' attorney to have him surrender Monday.
Wallenstein granted the release. Investigators had expected bail to be $200,000.
The agreement angered Cunha's family.
"He kills somebody and he has no bail?" said Cunha's sister, Sheila Metzger Cunha. "We need to let people know that justice is not being served. It's not right."
Deputy District Attorney Everett Emerson did not respond to a phone message.
