Cops let a deli owner go after a drunken-driving crash. He got back behind the wheel and died at 100
This is an old story, from 2013, but seems the investigation may be ramping up.

If the link doesn't work, 29 year-old Fedden bought the deli and was busted for drunken driving. Allowed by the cop to "go home and sleep it off" he sped up and killed himself in a big crash later that night.
Turns out that he fed the cops breakfast in his deli.
