A 34-year-old guy walked out on bail after his car slammed into a police vehicle and killed an officer on the Northern Tangent. Miroslav Vassilev was doing 149 kilometers per hour when it happened, and prosecutors wanted him locked up because they figured he might pull something else while running around free. The dude had racked up six previous traffic tickets, with one being a speeding violation.
His lawyers argued that he should get out since he has a job and no prior criminal history, plus the charge was for negligent homicide rather than intentional murder. The court sided with the defense and set bail at 5,000 leva, giving Vassilev 10 days to cough up the cash. Both sides can appeal the ruling if they want to fight it.
