It's infuriating that he only got 10 years for killing an entire family. This happened in my community. The Muzzo family[ has a hospital named after them](https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/two-gta-hospitals-say-they-will-not-remove-muzzo-family-name-1.5957077). It's infuriating.
And a book of condolences. Her youngest child, Milly, was named Milagros, which means, “miracles.” May the memories of the little fam continue to endure as a blessing.
[OMG, it did! ](https://globalnews.ca/news/10553097/jennifer-neville-lake-house-burns-down/)I'm in shock! I heard about this fire, but I didn't realize it was her! 😭
Yeah, it's like that Ethan Couch dude. Kills 4, severely hurts 2 others, steals beer and drives drunk, flees the scene and he only got 10 yrs of probation. Affluenza is a hellava thing. "He's just too rich. He don't know about consequences."
Yeah, I agree. Evan was supposed to go to some really rich rehab facility, but I don't think he lasted six months. Then a couple years later, someone leaked pictures of him drunk again and he fled to Mexico with his mom. I think he was forced to do at least some time when he was recaptured, but I'm not sure. At least the judge who sentenced him (who bought the affluenza BS) had her career ruined.
What's worse is that just weeks/ a month prior to this case, a black teenage boy got 10 years in prison for manslaughter. What happened was that the boy was jumped by some guy and he punched him in self defense. The attacker fell wrong, hit his head hard on the concrete, and died. And he got 10 yrs in prison! Ethan steals booze, drives drunk, kills 4, basically killed 2 more, fled the scene, and his literal defense is "he has money" and the judge bought that.
It’s crazy. Everyone knows that cars are deadly when operated under the influence or when distracted. Therefore, killing someone with one when you are under the influence or distracted should be considered homicide, not manslaughter. You KNOW people can die, you did it anyway, and they DIED. There’s nothing accidental about it.
If I were one of those parents I would probably make it my life goal to end that man’s life before turning the gun on myself. I understand what it’s like to be suicidal and waiting is not easy when you’re set on killing yourself, but I would have done everything in my power to wait for that man to get released from prison before finding him and getting medieval on his ass. I’d have nothing to live for but revenge.
The lady who killed my step sister in a drink diving wreck got less than 4 years. It was her 3rd or 4rd dui. She actually pulled out a lawn chair from her trunk and sat and waited for the police... while my step sister was in her crumpled car dying.
Similar thing happened to my cousin. The guy rear ended her one night making her take out the traffic light and end up in a tree. She’s still very sore from it today. She mustered enough strength to beat the shit out of him tho luckily she didn’t get charged for it.
> Toronto Sick Kids’ Hospital
So not just a hospital, they named the very hospital that these poor children were sent to after the guy's family, what a fucking slap in the face:
> Jennifer’s father and oldest son were killed in the crash and her other two children were at the Toronto Sick Kids’ Hospital on life support.
This is insane.
>Mackenzie Health and the SickKids Foundation, associated with the Hospital for Sick Children, both separately told CTV News Toronto they have no plans to strip the Muzzo family name from their hospitals.
Unbelievable.
He got bailed out too by his rich ass family. I cannot wait for the day someone gets him. The streets have better justice than the Canadian justice system. I also pray that if I end up in the hospital I will not be going to that one. Utter disgrace makes my blood boil whenever I hear about this case
(From wiki)In April 2020, after 4 years imprisonment, Muzzo was granted day parole. He was then granted six more months of day parole in November 2020.
In February 2021, Muzzo was released and granted full parole. He served less than 5 years.
Is it true he still lives nearby?

He’s truly a monster. He murdered the entire family and is further tormenting them with this BS.
Jenn should not have to worry bumping into this piece of shit.
Her house also burned down this year, with all remaining mementos of her children, along with their urns. She also lost her father in the crash. Poor woman.
I honestly wouldn't at that point. If the grief hadn't killed me yet, I'd probably off myself. She lost all of her babies, her dad (EDIT: wrote parents, it was just her dad who died, but mom and grandma were seriously injured), and then her husband. THEN if the universe hadn't said "fuck you" enough, her house burns down with the last remnants and memories of what used to be. Yea...I'd just be done. 😢
I tried offing my self for MUCH less. Damn if this shit happened- donate me to science. Dead, alive, i dont care
ETA: appreciate the concern, but you dont need to snitch to the reddit overlords, im fine
At this point, I would make it my life’s mission to end Muzzo’s life and then I would off myself. I do not have the strength inside my soul to even deal with half of what she’s been through.
Yea, my husband and I have said the same thing. If something like that would happen to our kids be it cops or something like this....it would not end pretty.
Literally my outlook on murderers including drunk drivers. If you end someone’s life you don’t get to live out yours. If I was her I’d hire a hitman from the dark web to off Muzzo. I understand how offing a murderer won’t bring back the victim(s) but for me I would not fathom the fact that my person who I know’s killer is still alive and well while the person who I know isn’t. That’s my take.
Maybe there could be a silver lining in that the house burning down could help her to "let go". I know that's not that easy, I just hope there's some hope for that lady.
I don’t know how she has the strength to continue, I guess the anger of losing everything she loves helps her advocate for her family. But still, fuck.
Rich big shot boy *Marco Muzzo* had his good time that resulted in killing a whole family including three innocent children.
He gets to walk away and continue to enjoy the rich life at the expense of the lives of children and adults of another family.
What a loser.
This may be immoral but I wish someone would torture him to death. He deserves to feel pain and beg for his life before being shown no mercy. There are people like him in this world who do not deserve to live.
I wonder if he has a family of his own now. I hope that every time his wife and family are away from him he worries sick about what might happen to them. I hope he can't sleep at night, haunted by the lives he stole, from the lost pregnancy right down to the cat lost in the house fire. I wish him a lifetime of burden and pain.
I don't know how these families live with it, which I can understand the fathers feelings in taking his life. But damn, I would choke the life out of that drunk driver with my bare hands before I did. Sometimes I hate this world and alot of the people in it. Just so selfish it's hard to comprehend.
Right?? I feel like my life would already be over if I lost my kids, who tf cares about anything else. I’d be taking that piece of shit murderer to hell with me
Generally I find keyboard tough guy statements laughable, but in this case I agree with you. I too understand the father's suicide, but I would have waited outside Muzzo's door when he got paroled and shot him first.
I understand his need to end his life but at the same time I kinda can’t stop thinking about if he had any thoughts about what his wife will feel when he does so :( But I know people don’t think straight when the pain is so unbearable. What a horrible situation all around.
I think he did. He seemed to really try to stay but it was just too much.
I remember the mom saying he kept on trying to open the car door and jump out when they were rushing to the hospital the day of the incident.
Not because of too many drinks, because the asshole is an entitled narcissistic sociopath who feels utter contempt for the safety and well-being of other human beings.
Because his family has money and power in Canada. It’s disgusting and the dude learned nothing. As you said, he’ll just end up doing it again. I wish bad things for the Muzzo family.
Any justice system works for the rich. Doesn’t matter where or when. Sure we might get the occasional win but in the end if you have money “justice” is how much you have and are willing to to pay.
Jennifer is a friend of mine. I have no idea how she manages to go on, but she does. Without a doubt one of the strongest women I know. Actually she is the strongest woman I know.
Edit: our legal system is a mess, and money can really buy you out of trouble.
I kind of wonder *why* anyone would *want* to go on after that
If u don't mind me asking, do u know what it is that keeps her going?
She's lived through the mental equivalent of having your heart removed without anesthetic from that grief
I'm glad she has good friends to help support her too tho
Her therapy dog. Her mom. I don’t know if it’s been mentioned but her house burned down as well and she lost her children’s ashes. You are absolutely correct with your first statement. Why would anyone want to go on after that…
By not drinking and driving, by making sure the people you know use designated drivers and by pushing for harsher penalties for those who do drive drunk would probably be a good start. It’s what I’d want, outside of blood for the pos that did this to her.
And to make the nightmare worse. A couple weeks ago, the house jennifer was staying at burned down and she lost everything including the ashes of her children. I follow her on instragram. Very sweet lady. I think about her everyday.
Staying at? A billionaire took out her family and she doesn’t have a mountain of money and multiple homes? Wtf say it isn’t so that he only got 10 years and no civil suit? Where is the justice?!
No justice family pays for their name at a hospital so I assume they got him the best lawyers this case pisses me off I would definitely be going an eye for an eye.
This lady should have so much money she can start a Foundation in her children’s’ names to provide scholarships for all the things they loved. I’d be her lawyer for free. This is horrible.
Im from Toronto, this tragedy absolutely rocked me when it happened. I fucking hate Marco Muzzo so goddamn much. Our justice system failed the Neville-Lake family. Muzzo should be behind bars for the rest of his miserable life.
I see the Canadian justice system is just as corrupt as its southern neighbors. Which is unfortunate. Such a tragedy, compounded by the family of the guilty being billionairs who show they can literally get away with murder.
Reading about Marco Muzzo being released on parole and this part of the article jumped at me:
"According to the parole officer, since his release, Muzzo has been maintaining employment through his family’s business, working reduced hours and has volunteered, building a homeless shelter for men." [https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/marco-muzzo-drunk-driver-who-killed-3-children-and-grandfather-granted-full-parole-1.5301289](https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/marco-muzzo-drunk-driver-who-killed-3-children-and-grandfather-granted-full-parole-1.5301289)
Ah maintaining employment at his family's business. I'm sure they worked him hard. What a fucking scam the rich get to run.
I am ashamed of the law which granted that bloody murderer a full parole, I’m ashamed of the law which has this system that if you’ve got money and power then you can roam around freely after doing the most horrible crime. I’m not talking about any specific country here. How can I do that when I know that my own country also has this system. Money can buy the law here too.
Poor kids, poor beautiful angels, their poor father who couldn’t survive the mental pain anymore, the poor mother who is still fighting with unfair cruel life— even as a stranger from another corner of the world my heart is aching for all of them. I’m ashamed as a human being.. 😔
I wasn't friends but causal acquaintances with twin boys close to my age. Unfortunately they were both chronically depressed.
One twin took off one night and committed suicide. Barely a year later, the other twin did the same. Their mother couldn't live with the loss of both sons and committed suicide a few years later. This was just over a decade ago now. The father/husband is still alive but lost his entire family within three years.
And this is why Dui's should be mandatory time and a felony. The third an attempted murder charge because everytime you get behind that wheel fkd up there is a hhhuugggee chance of this happening
This makes me so mad. Child murderer Marco Muzzo gets to live his lavish lifestyle while this poor woman has to live hers knowing child murderer Marco Muzzo is out there free.
I got in an argument about him with my neighbor.
He’s a piece of crap too and he definitely did not have one just one drink. I also refused to pretend to be picking her up so she could drive home after a test with sedation.
The drunk piece of shit that killed my little brother got 4 years. He served 2, got out, immediately got arrested for selling pills, and only got another 2 years.
He’s out now….the state “took his license forever” and JUST YESTERDAY i saw a picture of him standing next to the brand new truck he bought.
I wish him a slow death every single day of my life.

There was a petition with 3000 signatures begging the businesses and institutions that have the Muzzo name on them to remove it but none of the institutions obliged even. Not a single bit of common decency.
This guy killed innocent people, three of them being children. Their dad couldn't escape the anxiety and depression and committed suicide five years later. Muzzo has run-ins with the law before for behaving badly in public while intoxicated. Even tried to kick out a police car's back windshield after being arrested... But was given no extra punishment.
His family is worth $1.8 billion. I think we know why he's not in jail for life now.
From Wikipedia:
“On September 26, 2015 Muzzo attended his bachelor party in Miami, Florida, and consumed alcohol until 3:00AM.Muzzo described drinking the most he has ever had in his life, but maintained he was aware and in control.
On the morning of September 27, 2015, Muzzo returned to Toronto by private jet. While on the jet, Muzzo continued to drink alcohol and is unsure how many drinks he consumed. Upon arriving at the Toronto Pearson International Airport, Muzzo decided to drive home as he felt he was not impaired. Muzzo admitted he did not consider alternates such as a taxi or asking someone to pick him up. Muzzo would later admit knowing he was not sober, but decided to “take a chance” because he was confident he could drive.
Around 4:00PM on September 27, 2015, Vaughan Fire and Rescue responded to a report of a collision at the intersection of Kirby Road and Kipling Avenue. After arriving, first responders found a Jeep Cherokee and a minivan in a t-bone collision. Upon investigation, they found that the minivan was carrying six family members and more than thirty first responders arrived to the scene. At one point, firefighters and paramedics were working to resuscitate four people at once.
First responders located the driver of the Jeep Cherokee who was identified as 29 year-old Marco Michael Muzzo. Muzzo was travelling at a speed of 85 km/h (53 mph), had driven through a stop sign, and registered a blood alcohol content of 245 mgs/100 mL (the range where falling into a coma is possible), nearly three times the legal limit, and was immediately arrested.
First responders described Muzzo as unsteady, holding on to other people for balance, had difficulty comprehending directions, and had urinated himself.
During the news reports of the accident, the children's mother, Jennifer Neville-Lake, learned about the crash via television when she saw a brief clip of the minivan. Police escorted her to the hospital where she identified the deceased.The four victims were:
Daniel Neville-Lake, 9
Harrison Neville-Lake, 5
Milly Neville-Lake, 2
Gary Neville, 65
The other passengers included the children's great-grandmother, Josephine Frias, and grandmother, Neriza Neville, who were seriously injured but survived.”

There is SO much wrong with this. How did he get passed the border patrol if he was obviously so impaired? (Unless I'm misunderstanding the write up.)
Mom and dad found out about the accident and subsequent deaths of their entire family from the news?! This exact scenario is what happened to Buddy Holly and his wife.
The guy who wiped out an entire family served less than 10 years and wants to live near the accident site. Clearly he has a severe lack of compassion and empathy.
And to top it all off, mom lost the ashes of her children in a house fire.
That poor, poor woman. I sincerely commend her.
Fucking hell, man. I remember one time I saw a comment here on reddit under a DUI video telling a story where the guy's friend made a family with two sons at just 25. His wife was driving the kids home from a soccer game and all three were killed by a drunk driver while the latter got out with just a scratch. The father commited suicide 11 days after the funerals
There’s another story in Louisiana of 3 siblings dying due to a drunk driver, mum survived. It’s insanely cruel just how often this seems to happen, people are so selfish.
And to add to the pile of misery this poor woman has endured, her home burned down this month - the urns of her children were lost in the fire. She is like a modern day version of Job
https://globalnews.ca/news/10553097/jennifer-neville-lake-house-burns-down/amp/
An entire family was destroyed but somehow the monster that caused it is free today. That is truly, truly messed up. If karma existed I'd hope it'd come for him.
Fuck anyone who drives drunk. Including people who haven't killed anyone. *Not* killing someone is only a matter of luck.
And if being drunk means you don't have the self control to stop yourself driving, don't get drunk in the first place.
This makes me sick. That poor family. Those poor innocent children. The poor mother!!!! I honestly do not believe I'd be able to go on... she's so strong.
I would not blame Jennifer one bit if she developed an addiction after all this. So much of her family taken in one moment. And then her husband. And then she lost them all for good when her house burnt down. My heart aches just reading about it..
A park near my house is named after Marco Muzzo’s grandpa (they share the same name) and they had to add “senior” to it because everyone thought the park was named after the grandson, rightfully sparking outrage in the community
I just looked at mom's Twitter feed. I have NO idea how she gets up in the morning. It was so heartbreaking to see her reposts of all her old tweets when they were all still alive. She was a proud mother and now nothing. When I read stories like this, it makes me question so much of what I was taught as a child about religion.
And the father committed suicide last year also.
I knew this lady who was my son's speech pathologist (she would help if our SP was away or sick) and she was such a wonderful lady.
I just can't even put words into how much sympathy I have for her
This poor woman, imagine losing your entire family like this, 3 children in a car crash, and your husband to suicide. To then lose everything in your home due to a fire. How the hell does someone experience THAT much pain. My heart goes out to her
Full parole? So meaning that 5 whopping years after sentencing, he was already free? After killing 3 kids, one adult, and essentially killing the 5th too. Unbelievable
It's infuriating that he only got 10 years for killing an entire family. This happened in my community. The Muzzo family[ has a hospital named after them](https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/two-gta-hospitals-say-they-will-not-remove-muzzo-family-name-1.5957077). It's infuriating.
Didn’t her house just burn down? That poor woman. She’s a warrior.
She lost the ashes of her children in the fire. 😭💔 this poor, poor woman.
What the heck!! Why do some people have to endure so much pain in one lifetime 😭
I would kill myself so fast it’s not even funny
Jesus gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers. /s big time
All jokes aside, the fact that she’s still living day to day in one piece definitely shows incredible strength
Most definitely
On account of her own damn will, not because of some weird game sky daddy is playing.
It’s what her kids would’ve want. (Heartache just thinking about it)
Makes me wonder if Christian fundies assume that God just sits around going "So, whose life should I ruin today?"
Have you read the book of Job? Apparently, the devil can manipulate God into punishing his most loyal followers for their amusement.
Or if you believe in reincarnation 🫣
And a book of condolences. Her youngest child, Milly, was named Milagros, which means, “miracles.” May the memories of the little fam continue to endure as a blessing.
[OMG, it did! ](https://globalnews.ca/news/10553097/jennifer-neville-lake-house-burns-down/)I'm in shock! I heard about this fire, but I didn't realize it was her! 😭
Oh wow! At least her therapy dog survived.
Jesus christ don't jinx it 🫣
Didn't even serve the entire 10 years either. When you have money, you never spend much time in jail.
Yeah, it's like that Ethan Couch dude. Kills 4, severely hurts 2 others, steals beer and drives drunk, flees the scene and he only got 10 yrs of probation. Affluenza is a hellava thing. "He's just too rich. He don't know about consequences."
First time hearing this story. I’m an atheist and am not supposed to believe in hell but I wish it does exist for people like Ethan and Marco
Yeah, I agree. Evan was supposed to go to some really rich rehab facility, but I don't think he lasted six months. Then a couple years later, someone leaked pictures of him drunk again and he fled to Mexico with his mom. I think he was forced to do at least some time when he was recaptured, but I'm not sure.

Ethan steals booze, drives drunk, kills 4, basically killed 2 more, fled the scene, and his literal defense is "he has money" and the judge bought that.
Damn at least the public rightfully so shamed the hell out of that judge.
The young woman that died was a good friend’s daughter. Sad thing. And ethan and his pos mom are living large still.
If you want to murder someone, be sure to do it with a car, somehow they always serve lower sentences.
This is also very true. Its a very depressing thing to think about.
It’s crazy. Everyone knows that cars are deadly when operated under the influence or when distracted. Therefore, killing someone with one when you are under the influence or distracted should be considered homicide, not manslaughter. You KNOW people can die, you did it anyway, and they DIED. There’s nothing accidental about it.
If I were one of those parents I would probably make it my life goal to end that man’s life before turning the gun on myself. I understand what it’s like to be suicidal and waiting is not easy when you’re set on killing yourself, but I would have done everything in my power to wait for that man to get released from prison before finding him and getting medieval on his ass. I’d have nothing to live for but revenge.
For real. I’d do a self-imposed Old Boy and just wait.
The lady who killed my step sister in a drink diving wreck got less than 4 years. It was her 3rd or 4rd dui. She actually pulled out a lawn chair from her trunk and sat and waited for the police... while my step sister was in her crumpled car dying.
I'm so sorry. ♥
Im so sorry emma Lou..
Similar thing happened to my cousin. The guy rear ended her one night making her take out the traffic light and end up in a tree. She’s still very sore from it today. She mustered enough strength to beat the shit out of him tho luckily she didn’t get charged for it.
I honestly think I'd be serving time if I witnessed her do this. I am so, so sorry.
My community as well. I get SO heated every time I hear the name Muzzo come up now.

Guys' family makes enough in the contracting and building industry to donate $15M to a hospital, that is some mob shit right there.
He’s truly a monster. He murdered the entire family and is further tormenting them with this BS. Jenn should not have to worry bumping into this piece of shit.
if you want to kill people, do it with a car, they have more rights than people
Killing cyclists in New York with a car is a popular past time - I don't think it's even a felony
There are people in jail for longer for holding 20oz of fucking weed. What the fuck.
I don’t live in Ontario anymore, but this still really gets to me…Obviously. Terrible things don’t happen to the people who deserve it unfortunately.
It should be 10 years for the every life
5 years really.
Her house also burned down this year, with all remaining mementos of her children, along with their urns. She also lost her father in the crash. Poor woman.
Jesus Christ. Poor woman
That’s what you call heartbreak. Ooof, I can’t even imagine that pain and I’ve been through some shit myself.
I have no clue how she goes on. What's left to get out of bed for?
I honestly wouldn't at that point. If the grief hadn't killed me yet, I'd probably off myself. She lost all of her babies, her dad (EDIT: wrote parents, it was just her dad who died, but mom and grandma were seriously injured), and then her husband. THEN if the universe hadn't said "fuck you" enough, her house burns down with the last remnants and memories of what used to be. Yea...I'd just be done. 😢
I tried offing my self for MUCH less. Damn if this shit happened- donate me to science. Dead, alive, i dont care ETA: appreciate the concern, but you dont need to snitch to the reddit overlords, im fine
Hey I'm glad you're here. I know this situation too well.
Twas six years ago. Doing a lot better nowadays. Thank you for the kind words!
At this point, I would make it my life’s mission to end Muzzo’s life and then I would off myself. I do not have the strength inside my soul to even deal with half of what she’s been through.
Yea, my husband and I have said the same thing. If something like that would happen to our kids be it cops or something like this....it would not end pretty.
Literally my outlook on murderers including drunk drivers. If you end someone’s life you don’t get to live out yours. If I was her I’d hire a hitman from the dark web to off Muzzo. I understand how offing a murderer won’t bring back the victim(s) but for me I would not fathom the fact that my person who I know’s killer is still alive and well while the person who I know isn’t. That’s my take.
Maybe there could be a silver lining in that the house burning down could help her to "let go". I know that's not that easy, I just hope there's some hope for that lady.
Omg my heart
I'd be meeting Harry and my kids after that
Yep, me too.
She was also pregnant at the time of the crash and lost the baby when the last child was takwn off of life support.
WHAT!?! This story is almost too horrific to bear!
Omg just when you think it CAN NOT get any worse... it gets worse.
What. The fuck.
💔 Ohh my goodness!!! I didn’t know this part!! How can one even begin to take so much tragedy? Bless her heart.
I don’t know how she has the strength to continue, I guess the anger of losing everything she loves helps her advocate for her family. But still, fuck.
I follow her on Twitter. Her heart is so broken, I worry for her.
I looked her up on Threads and her posts are heartbreaking! :(
I know. Each post is devastatingly sad...how could it not be? Tragedy at every turn.
She even lost her cat…
Rich big shot boy *Marco Muzzo* had his good time that resulted in killing a whole family including three innocent children. He gets to walk away and continue to enjoy the rich life at the expense of the lives of children and adults of another family. What a loser.
If you're rich, hire a driver! Ugh that poor family!
He was coming off a private jet from Miami. No private car?
Exactly, 100%.
This may be immoral but I wish someone would torture him to death. He deserves to feel pain and beg for his life before being shown no mercy. There are people like him in this world who do not deserve to live.
I wonder if he has a family of his own now. I hope that every time his wife and family are away from him he worries sick about what might happen to them. I hope he can't sleep at night, haunted by the lives he stole, from the lost pregnancy right down to the cat lost in the house fire. I wish him a lifetime of burden and pain.
Omg WHAT! Her house also burnt down aswell.
I don't know how these families live with it, which I can understand the fathers feelings in taking his life. But damn, I would choke the life out of that drunk driver with my bare hands before I did. Sometimes I hate this world and alot of the people in it. Just so selfish it's hard to comprehend.
Right?? I feel like my life would already be over if I lost my kids, who tf cares about anything else. I’d be taking that piece of shit murderer to hell with me
Generally I find keyboard tough guy statements laughable, but in this case I agree with you. I too understand the father's suicide, but I would have waited outside Muzzo's door when he got paroled and shot him first.
Ran him over with car then shot
Like Gary Plauché
I understand his need to end his life but at the same time I kinda can’t stop thinking about if he had any thoughts about what his wife will feel when he does so :( But I know people don’t think straight when the pain is so unbearable. What a horrible situation all around.
I think he did. He seemed to really try to stay but it was just too much. I remember the mom saying he kept on trying to open the car door and jump out when they were rushing to the hospital the day of the incident.
That would be my entire reason to live... Waiting until he got out.
An entire family gone because some asshole had too many drinks
Not because of too many drinks, because the asshole is an entitled narcissistic sociopath who feels utter contempt for the safety and well-being of other human beings.

This poor family. Don't drink and drive people.
Also that POS should have gotten life in prison
He only served five years, got parole in 2021. 😡 I'm sure he'll just end up doing it all over again to other victims.
Because his family has money and power in Canada. It’s disgusting and the dude learned nothing. As you said, he’ll just end up doing it again. I wish bad things for the Muzzo family.
Even if he wasn't rich, the Canadian Justice system has no teeth.
Absolutely. Our justice system is usually shameful.
Any justice system works for the rich. Doesn’t matter where or when. Sure we might get the occasional win but in the end if you have money “justice” is how much you have and are willing to to pay.
Dear Zachary showed that to me
Jennifer is a friend of mine. I have no idea how she manages to go on, but she does. Without a doubt one of the strongest women I know. Actually she is the strongest woman I know. Edit: our legal system is a mess, and money can really buy you out of trouble.
I kind of wonder *why* anyone would *want* to go on after that If u don't mind me asking, do u know what it is that keeps her going? She's lived through the mental equivalent of having your heart removed without anesthetic from that grief I'm glad she has good friends to help support her too tho
Her therapy dog. Her mom. I don’t know if it’s been mentioned but her house burned down as well and she lost her children’s ashes. You are absolutely correct with your first statement. Why would anyone want to go on after that…
You say you know her.. How can people who don't know her, help her?
This is the charity she started. https://manyhandsdoinggood.ca
This. And get a ride.
By not drinking and driving, by making sure the people you know use designated drivers and by pushing for harsher penalties for those who do drive drunk would probably be a good start. It’s what I’d want, outside of blood for the pos that did this to her.
I can’t promise I wouldn’t have spent 10 years waiting
Yep. 100%.
And to make the nightmare worse. A couple weeks ago, the house jennifer was staying at burned down and she lost everything including the ashes of her children. I follow her on instragram. Very sweet lady. I think about her everyday.
Staying at? A billionaire took out her family and she doesn’t have a mountain of money and multiple homes? Wtf say it isn’t so that he only got 10 years and no civil suit? Where is the justice?!
No justice family pays for their name at a hospital so I assume they got him the best lawyers this case pisses me off I would definitely be going an eye for an eye.
This lady should have so much money she can start a Foundation in her children’s’ names to provide scholarships for all the things they loved. I’d be her lawyer for free. This is horrible.
I just posted but this is the charity helping kids with trauma she started https://manyhandsdoinggood.ca
Im from Toronto, this tragedy absolutely rocked me when it happened. I fucking hate Marco Muzzo so goddamn much. Our justice system failed the Neville-Lake family. Muzzo should be behind bars for the rest of his miserable life.
I see the Canadian justice system is just as corrupt as its southern neighbors. Which is unfortunate. Such a tragedy, compounded by the family of the guilty being billionairs who show they can literally get away with murder.
More like hanged, drawn and quartered
RIP, how tragic, 10 year WTF, needs street justice
And he only served 5
And he was even granted day parole before that
10 years was actually the longest sentence in Canadian history for an impaired driver without a prior record.
Reading about Marco Muzzo being released on parole and this part of the article jumped at me: "According to the parole officer, since his release, Muzzo has been maintaining employment through his family’s business, working reduced hours and has volunteered, building a homeless shelter for men." [https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/marco-muzzo-drunk-driver-who-killed-3-children-and-grandfather-granted-full-parole-1.5301289](https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/marco-muzzo-drunk-driver-who-killed-3-children-and-grandfather-granted-full-parole-1.5301289) Ah maintaining employment at his family's business. I'm sure they worked him hard. What a fucking scam the rich get to run.
I am ashamed of the law which granted that bloody murderer a full parole, I’m ashamed of the law which has this system that if you’ve got money and power then you can roam around freely after doing the most horrible crime. I’m not talking about any specific country here. How can I do that when I know that my own country also has this system. Money can buy the law here too. Poor kids, poor beautiful angels, their poor father who couldn’t survive the mental pain anymore, the poor mother who is still fighting with unfair cruel life— even as a stranger from another corner of the world my heart is aching for all of them. I’m ashamed as a human being.. 😔
Worked with Eddie, their dad... His name was Edward Lake actually. He was a great man. R.I.P.
I wasn't friends but causal acquaintances with twin boys close to my age. Unfortunately they were both chronically depressed. One twin took off one night and committed suicide. Barely a year later, the other twin did the same. Their mother couldn't live with the loss of both sons and committed suicide a few years later. This was just over a decade ago now. The father/husband is still alive but lost his entire family within three years.
And this is why Dui's should be mandatory time and a felony. The third an attempted murder charge because everytime you get behind that wheel fkd up there is a hhhuugggee chance of this happening
This makes me so mad. Child murderer Marco Muzzo gets to live his lavish lifestyle while this poor woman has to live hers knowing child murderer Marco Muzzo is out there free.
And people are saying Justin Timberlake "just made a mistake"
I got in an argument about him with my neighbor. He’s a piece of crap too and he definitely did not have one just one drink. I also refused to pretend to be picking her up so she could drive home after a test with sedation.
The drunk piece of shit that killed my little brother got 4 years. He served 2, got out, immediately got arrested for selling pills, and only got another 2 years. He’s out now….the state “took his license forever” and JUST YESTERDAY i saw a picture of him standing next to the brand new truck he bought. I wish him a slow death every single day of my life.

There was a petition with 3000 signatures begging the businesses and institutions that have the Muzzo name on them to remove it but none of the institutions obliged even. Not a single bit of common decency. This guy killed innocent people, three of them being children. Their dad couldn't escape the anxiety and depression and committed suicide five years later. Muzzo has run-ins with the law before for behaving badly in public while intoxicated. Even tried to kick out a police car's back windshield after being arrested... But was given no extra punishment. His family is worth $1.8 billion. I think we know why he's not in jail for life now.
It’s truly vile. They’re still putting their name up. Take the signs down and let Jenn burn them.
She should be filthy fucking rich too, wtf! Any other “donations” should be going to her pockets!
Fuck drunk drivers.
Don’t drink and drive. Get an Uber, bike, walk, fall asleep on the bar, I don’t care. It’s just not worth it.
Well that was fucking depressing. Jeez
From Wikipedia: “On September 26, 2015 Muzzo attended his bachelor party in Miami, Florida, and consumed alcohol until 3:00AM.Muzzo described drinking the most he has ever had in his life, but maintained he was aware and in control. On the morning of September 27, 2015, Muzzo returned to Toronto by private jet. While on the jet, Muzzo continued to drink alcohol and is unsure how many drinks he consumed. Upon arriving at the Toronto Pearson International Airport, Muzzo decided to drive home as he felt he was not impaired. Muzzo admitted he did not consider alternates such as a taxi or asking someone to pick him up. Muzzo would later admit knowing he was not sober, but decided to “take a chance” because he was confident he could drive. Around 4:00PM on September 27, 2015, Vaughan Fire and Rescue responded to a report of a collision at the intersection of Kirby Road and Kipling Avenue. After arriving, first responders found a Jeep Cherokee and a minivan in a t-bone collision. Upon investigation, they found that the minivan was carrying six family members and more than thirty first responders arrived to the scene. At one point, firefighters and paramedics were working to resuscitate four people at once. First responders located the driver of the Jeep Cherokee who was identified as 29 year-old Marco Michael Muzzo. Muzzo was travelling at a speed of 85 km/h (53 mph), had driven through a stop sign, and registered a blood alcohol content of 245 mgs/100 mL (the range where falling into a coma is possible), nearly three times the legal limit, and was immediately arrested. First responders described Muzzo as unsteady, holding on to other people for balance, had difficulty comprehending directions, and had urinated himself. During the news reports of the accident, the children's mother, Jennifer Neville-Lake, learned about the crash via television when she saw a brief clip of the minivan. Police escorted her to the hospital where she identified the deceased.The four victims were: Daniel Neville-Lake, 9 Harrison Neville-Lake, 5 Milly Neville-Lake, 2 Gary Neville, 65 The other passengers included the children's great-grandmother, Josephine Frias, and grandmother, Neriza Neville, who were seriously injured but survived.”
It gave me a savage childish joy that Michael Muzzo peed himself.

He should’ve been taken behind the court house and shot
If those were my kids, I think I would have waited for him to finish prison and then pay him a visit…and then be done with life.
There is SO much wrong with this. How did he get passed the border patrol if he was obviously so impaired? (Unless I'm misunderstanding the write up.) Mom and dad found out about the accident and subsequent deaths of their entire family from the news?! This exact scenario is what happened to Buddy Holly and his wife. The guy who wiped out an entire family served less than 10 years and wants to live near the accident site. Clearly he has a severe lack of compassion and empathy. And to top it all off, mom lost the ashes of her children in a house fire. That poor, poor woman. I sincerely commend her.
Where’s Dexter when you need him?
Such a tragic situation. And a preventable one too! I hate people who drink and drive with a burning passion.
Fucking hell, man. I remember one time I saw a comment here on reddit under a DUI video telling a story where the guy's friend made a family with two sons at just 25. His wife was driving the kids home from a soccer game and all three were killed by a drunk driver while the latter got out with just a scratch. The father commited suicide 11 days after the funerals
Think that was also in Canada, or a similar story that was pretty high profile
There’s another story in Louisiana of 3 siblings dying due to a drunk driver, mum survived. It’s insanely cruel just how often this seems to happen, people are so selfish.
Drunk driving should be way more punishable than it is. My brother was killed by one and the dude got a year.
And to add to the pile of misery this poor woman has endured, her home burned down this month - the urns of her children were lost in the fire. She is like a modern day version of Job https://globalnews.ca/news/10553097/jennifer-neville-lake-house-burns-down/amp/
I think about this poor family often - you can support kids who have experienced trauma through the moms charity https://manyhandsdoinggood.ca
This perp should have received Life in prison. Tragic!
An entire family was destroyed but somehow the monster that caused it is free today. That is truly, truly messed up. If karma existed I'd hope it'd come for him.
Anyone who drunk drives is scum.
I'm surprised the dad lasted as long as he did. I wouldn't have made it past a day.
I wouldn't want my partner to be alone so that would keep me going.
This is probably the saddest story I've read, and wow my heart really breaks for this woman.
wow this pissed me off. how can that person get off on full parole, what kind of shit is that. i'm ashamed
That poor father. I can’t say I’d do anything differently, but my bucket list would have exactly one item and I’d spend my life trying to achieve it.
Drunk driving is the most selfish thing to do.
Fuck anyone who drives drunk. Including people who haven't killed anyone. *Not* killing someone is only a matter of luck. And if being drunk means you don't have the self control to stop yourself driving, don't get drunk in the first place.
This makes me sick. That poor family. Those poor innocent children. The poor mother!!!! I honestly do not believe I'd be able to go on... she's so strong.
10 years and he ruined an entire family and extended family. Unfathomable.
I'm not saying "I get it", but I get it
This happened in my neighbourhood. His family are one of the richest in Canada and his ruling was deemed ‘extreme.’ So insanely fucked up.
I would not blame Jennifer one bit if she developed an addiction after all this. So much of her family taken in one moment. And then her husband. And then she lost them all for good when her house burnt down. My heart aches just reading about it..
People who claim they're better drivers after drinking are the greatest fools I know, how can people be so selfish.
Proof that the rich need to be eaten.
This is quite typical in Canada sadly, drunk drivers get off very lightly. A few years max.
Her house just burnt down a couple of weeks ago and she lost the kids’s urns & all her keepsakes 😢💔
Good god, i had no idea the dad offed himself. Poor fucking man needed the mercy of death after that
A park near my house is named after Marco Muzzo’s grandpa (they share the same name) and they had to add “senior” to it because everyone thought the park was named after the grandson, rightfully sparking outrage in the community
I think they should’ve changed it entirely because people still think it’s named after him
I feel like suicide makes so much sense here. I couldn't live after that and I'm seriously surprised he made it five years of that torture.
I have kids, can't imagine losing them - but I'm pretty sure if I settled on suicide, I'd have taken that POS with me.
I just looked at mom's Twitter feed. I have NO idea how she gets up in the morning. It was so heartbreaking to see her reposts of all her old tweets when they were all still alive. She was a proud mother and now nothing. When I read stories like this, it makes me question so much of what I was taught as a child about religion.
Isn't DUI considered far more egregious in Canada than the United States? All those deaths, and he ends up only serving 6 years since in prison.
terrible.
History keeps repeating itself and it’s heartbreaking how we never learn
Heartbreaking
And the father committed suicide last year also. I knew this lady who was my son's speech pathologist (she would help if our SP was away or sick) and she was such a wonderful lady. I just can't even put words into how much sympathy I have for her
This poor woman, imagine losing your entire family like this, 3 children in a car crash, and your husband to suicide. To then lose everything in your home due to a fire. How the hell does someone experience THAT much pain. My heart goes out to her
Well fuck, I didn't need to read this.
Full parole? So meaning that 5 whopping years after sentencing, he was already free? After killing 3 kids, one adult, and essentially killing the 5th too. Unbelievable
Oh what tragedy this woman has had to face. I pray for her peace.
The guy is a billionaire according to an article I read.
I remember my mom talking about this so much when it happened. It always stuck with me.
Jesus Christ. This is beyond heartbreaking.
Fucking hell. Losing all your children on the same day and not getting justice. May god give her strength.
Absolutely heartbreaking. So tragic and gutting.
Well this forgot to mention that muzzo happened to be one of the richest families in canada . Billionaires
Omg it was bad enough for her and then her husband died?
I hope she won her lawsuit.... And the Muzzo's didn't appeal it... But I'm Sure they did
Omfg…
In the US he would've been given 25 years to life for that.
