Yes, there is way too much info missing from this story, did the jury cut the guy a break because the kid was crossing a major free way? Whats the rest of the story here...

What was the basis/reasoning for probation? Come on WOAI - DETAILS!!! Did the parents of this child get any penalty for allowing their child to illegally cross the highway?

probation for a hit and run that killed a child. Now we know why noone ever stops to render aid and leaves the seen.
