Bond Denied Man Charged in DUI Death
Francisco Ferrer, 32, was denied bond Wednesday morning. Ferrer is charged with DUI and vehicular homicide in the death of a Grady Hospital EMT.
Douglas County Superior Court Judge Robert James denied bond to Francisco Ferrer, 32 of Dallas, Wednesday morning. Ferrer is charged with DUI and vehicular homicide in the death of Jason Dale Strickland, 37 from Bremen, an EMT at Grady Hospital.
Ferrer was traveling west on Inerstate 20 when his Honda Element struck Stickland's Harley Davidson from behind, said Gordy Wright, a spokesman for the Georgia State Patrol.
Assistant District Attorney Ryan Leonard told the court that Ferrer was drunk with a blood alcohol content of .125, the Douglas County Sentinel reported. The impact ejected Strickland from the motorcycle and into the center travel lane where he was hit by a tractor-trailer truck.
“I just don’t know how you wouldn’t know immediately that you had hit a Harley – that’s a big bike – unless you were so drunk that you were incoherent to all that was going on around you,” James said, the Sentinel reported. “I do feel that there is a likelihood that you would do this again. Mr. Ferrer, you are not the first person to stand before me accused of having killed someone after a fun night at Fannie’s. Bond is denied.”

He needs to rot in jail. Jason worked all night saving lives to be killed on his way home to his family by a drunk driver who had no reason to be behind the wheel of a vehicle. Thank you to the judge who denied bond. You probably saved someone elses life.

I wholeheartedly agree, This FILTH needs to ROT in Jail. Unfortuantely the scum got out on bond just before the anniverary date of Jason's Killing. 300,000 Bond too. Makes you wonder what kind of financial resourses this creep has and how he got them? Something illegal I'm sure. Every picture I've seen he sports around ear rings in his right ear. I wonder.

A Picture of the Battle between GOOD and EVIL here. You have a Good man, Jason Strickland who spends his life and heart saving the lives of others as a Grady EMT who just got off from work and was on his way home. You have EVIL, (JR FERRER) who leaves a trashy strip club after spending an obscene amount of money on strippers and getting drunk, gets into his weapon and runs down Strickland leaving stricklands motorcycle stuck like a bug to the front of his car and throwing Strickland into the path of an on coming 18 wheeler who detroys Stricklands body then is hit a couple more times until his body is now in pieces littering the interstate where he spent his days saving lives on. Strickland had children at home waiting who will never see their daddy again, then you have FERRER, who has a Baby at home and is out at 4am at a strip club and who will have a sorry piece of crap daddy all her life. Ferrer will forever be a burden to society now as I'm sure he already was. He took one of societies best, Jason Strickland and put him in baggies. I PRAY this UNITES a CITY, A County, A State, A Country and everyone should become OUTRAGED that this atrocity happened and will not be let go. A shame that old fashioned hangings have been outlawed. This one BEGS for it. I hope this Trash never sees the light of day again.

Just a Crying Shame! This man looks evil. I knew Jason and as the 1 year anniversary past of his death, I went to a place that I remember Jason loved and cried. He was such a Wonderful and Endearing Man only to have his life so unimaginably taken in such a violent way just makes me sick thinking of his last moments. I am a Christian and I have to pray that God will forgive me for the Horrible Anger and thoughts I have against this demonic creature that will live his life once this is past. I can Only BEG the Justice System will Deliver a Swift and Mighty Hand of Justice Against him. He will also have to meet his maker and I pray that I do not have so spend eternity in a place with people like him. You are a DISGRACE and SHAME to the human race Mr. Ferrer. I do not address you with any respect. God Bless Jason's Families and Children that will never know their wonderful Daddy. Love you Jason, Judy.
