Abdallah Khader Act The injustice of this case inspired legislators to pass the Abdallah Khader Act , which raises the crime to a second degree felony if the victim of a DWI accident suffers traumatic brain injury that results in a persistent vegetative state.
Since the accident, which took place in Arlington, Abdallah had been in a vegetative state and had to have constant care, reports the station. Tests reportedly showed Richardson had a blood alcohol level more than three times the legal limit at the time of the crash. Since then, Abdallah's family succeeded in getting Abdallah's Law passed, which makes the punishment harsher for those who drive while intoxicated. The family was motivated to seek changes after finding out Richardson had previously been convicted of DWI seven times in four other states, reports the station.
Richard is still awaiting trial in the case.
