At the intersection of Del Paso and Marysville boulevards in North Sacramento, a person's life ended on a Sunday evening after being struck by two vehicles — the first of which drove away without pause or accountability. It is a moment that distills one of the quieter moral failures of modern life: the choice to flee rather than face the consequences of harm caused. Police are left to reconstruct not only what happened, but who was lost and who bears responsibility.
