The Marty thread.

[Serpent]

God damn-it! How is Marty doing!?

[kenny]

It's looking better.

I feel that this is the beggining to a very long week.

[serial_]

That is so fucked up.

I really hope they catch this guy.

Let us know how Marty is doing, i hope he recovers quickly.

[kenny]

I want to thank the couple of you that replied so quickly and I know there are others that would love to after they read this, but I am going to close this thread down. I never meant to leave it open, it's more of a reference point for people to help out and to get a correct update on the situation.

Thanks for your understanding.

For anyone close, feel free to call me directly at any time, my phone will be on.

[Napalm]

Is there any way that we could get a regular update on Marty's condition?
I think your tire tracks might be on to something. Good eye.

Since I am being a nazi and keeping the other post clean from feedback, I put this one here for people to chime in on.

[Serpent]

Thanks for keeping us all up to date, it's much appreciated.

Wishing you the best Marty and Nikki...

I was shocked to hear about this. Sickening. People need to realize what's really at stake when they're trying to shave 2-4 minutes off of their cross-town trip. This driver is going to get fucked, and deservedly so. We seriously need to start a local campaign to get people to chill out with their driving.


I also heard this little bit of news this morning:

Vatican Issues 10 Commandments for Driving

I hope the recovery goes well from here on out. Best wishes.

If they ever catch the guy, he might get screwed.

I saw what those morons on the KSL blog were saying about this, and it just pissed me off. So, i posted a reply.I just couldn't believe some of the things they were saying about how basically he deserved what happened. TOTAL BULLSHIT!

Nobody deserves to be run over by a truck. Except maybe some of the assholes on KSL.com that is... I'll bet it would change their perspective real quick.

I hope they catch this guy soon. He deserves worse than what the courts will do to him.

Good luck Marty, we are all pulling for you.

So I did some looking around on the web, and the two major brands of flat fronted trucks in the USA are Mitsubishi Fuso and Isuzu NPR/NQR. The Isuzu is also sold under Chevrolet and GMC as the W-Series. Here's a photo of the Fuso with a refrigeration unit:

Stole the pic off ebay, so it'll expire on the 28th.

Hope this helps.

Marty is in surgery right now and will be in surgery for about 6 hours, so please every one pray, send healing and helping energies his way and to the Doctors who are doing it!

When tragedy strikes our community of friends it?s always heart warming and uplifting to see people band together to help and show support. There are some really amazing people out there and I want to show some appreciation.

Marty is an amazing guy and he is in my heart, my thoughts and prayers go out to everyone effected- especially Nikki. Be strong and keep your hopes up <3 I have faith that Marty will pull through this?.he?s just awesome like that

I hope that these leads pan out and someone is caught. Humanity sickens me and never ceases to surprise me?.it?s sad and depressing- but the pathetic waste of flesh that was driving the truck will face the consequences of his thoughtless actions, and that is comforting.

I spoke with a few of the Attorneys at my work about this situation, and if you haven?t already sought out legal help let me know if I can be of any kind of assistance!

<3

WTF! ..... I barely know Marty, but I know he's good man and a great friend to many, least to deserve a fate such as this...

This just makes me baseball bat angry... I want to hunt this fucker down and beat the same injuries into him one swing at a time.
