🚨 TEXAS: Killeen Fire Captain Marvin Taylor III had just left the hospital after his FIFTH CHILD was born. He was on his way to pick up his other kids so they could meet the baby. Rodney Bremby slammed into him from behind at 103 MPH in a 45 zone. Police said he was impaired. Bremby pleaded guilty to intoxication manslaughter. His sentence in Travis County is SIX MONTHS in jail and probation. Five kids lost their dad. The man who killed him will be home by spring. Austin justice is a JOKE.

🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting in Texas after a Black male driver who slammed into a fire captain at 103 MPH, K*LLING him just hours after the birth of his FIFTH CHILD... ...was just sentenced to only SIX MONTHS in jail and PROBATION!!! Yes, you read that right. He pleaded guilty to intoxication manslaughter, and he’ll spend about six months in jail. On May 11th, 2025, Mother’s Day, Captain Marvin Taylor III's wife gave birth to their fifth baby at an Austin hospital. Marvin left the hospital to go pick up his other children so they could meet their new sibling. He never made it. At 1:05AM, he was stopped at a red light on East Koenig Lane. According to court records, that’s when a Dodge Durango came flying down the road and rear-ended his van at 103 MPH... the speed limit was 45. The crash sent Marvin’s van sliding 150 feet into a median. He passed away right there at the scene. The man who k*lled him is Rodney Bremby, he was completely drunk. He was booked on a $103,000 bond... and he bonded out within DAYS. In August, he pleaded guilty to Intoxication Manslaughter with a Vehicle, a second-degree felony. And this week, the sentence came down. 6 months in jail. 10 years of probation. 403 hours of community service. Those 403 hours were the family’s request, it was Marvin’s badge number. Now FIVE CHILDREN will grow up without their father, and the man who did it gets 6 month in prison. Say his name. Captain Marvin Taylor III. WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!!

This is DA Jose Garza. Do you know how many cases like this we have? The only people da Garza indict are police officers! Travis County sucks!

Praying for Captain Taylor's wife and all five of his kids. Driving impaired at 103 in a 45 zone is a choice, and the courts should treat it that way.

Disgraceful, to say the least. Like I always say, the justice system is broken. I can’t believe Texas, which seems to be stern on the death penalty, would be so lenient for the death, not to mention a public servant.

Judges are hiding behind their judicial protection! That needs stripped. Everyone else can be sued for any reason, even police. Why not judges? I don’t know the statues or process but I sure bet Congress does!

This is a horrible travesty and perversion of justice. Bremby should be given a minimum of 20-years. Drugs & booze are a conscience choice. No matter what happens afterwards, the choice was already made!

We have a judicial tyranny and a jury nullification crisis in America; it may be getting closer to a time for Street Justice to put these people where they truly belong.

Outrage should be erupting and lock up the judge who gave Bremby such a light sentence. Hold the Judge accountable for the death of this Father of FIVE. Give the Judge's salary to the Mother of five and get rid of that judge.

There was a time in America, during the violent Vietnam protests, where judges like this didn’t last long. Your move.

I hope the DOJ investigates this... this person was drunk driving, speeding and committed vehicle homicide and only had his hand slapped. UNBELIEVABLE 🤬🤬

Intox manslaughter should be a mandatory minimum of 25 years It's murder just the same

Garza is a Soros POS All the blue haired tattooed nose ringed retards here are hard core communists and they vote, same with all the public sector employees here. It's a shame what they've done to Austin

Austin is now officially a 💩hole as far as I am concerned! 10 years ago, it started noticeably changing and has gone completely downhill. The Hills area is the only place I would even consider living if I were forced to live there.

We have got to get the liberal leftist Democrats out of politics in Texas. The guy should’ve gotten at least six years, even if it was an unintended manslaughter.

There needs to be a set of minimum sentences for every crime. The judge's discretion should not be absolute. Six months jail time for killing a man is ridiculous.
