   Kill this bastard.  He has forfeited his right to live.   
      
   The driver in the pickup truck involved in a head-on collision   
   with a church bus in Texas that killed 13 passengers swerved   
   more than 50 times before the crash, according to a preliminary   
   report released Thursday from the National Transportation Safety   
   Board.   
      
   The report does not state a probable cause for the crash on U.S.   
   83 near Garner State Park on March 29, about 75 miles west of   
   San Antonio. The report however lists what investigators are   
   focusing on as they reconstruct the events that led to the   
   deadly collision.   
      
   Included in the report is a review of a 14-minute long video by   
   witness Jody Kuchler, which shows the pickup driven by Jack   
   Dillon Young crossing the double yellow center line 19 times,   
   the solid white shoulder lines 37 times, and the grass shoulder   
   at least five times.   
      
   At one point in the video, the truck is seen traveling   
   completely onto the wrong side of the road prior to the crash,   
   according to the report.   
      
   Young, 20, and one passenger of the bus owned by the First   
   Baptist Church of New Braunfels were the sole survivors of the   
   crash, which happened as the senior adult members of the church   
   were returning home from a church retreat.   
      
   Investigators with the NTSB estimate that the pickup was   
   traveling at from 67 to 71 mph in a 70-mph speed zone, based on   
   an analysis of the video.   
      
   Young told witnesses and the police after the crash he had been   
   texting, and said during an NTSB interview he was "checking his   
   phone for a text when the accident occurred."   
      
   "The driver also told NTSB investigators he had been taking   
   prescription medications prior to the crash," the report said.   
   "Several of those medications, as well as marijuana, were found   
   in the pickup truck at the scene of the crash. Toxicology test   
   results are pending."   
      
   The bus driver and front row passenger were wearing shoulder   
   belts, while the passengers behind them were all wearing lap   
   belts. Young was using no seatbelt.   
      
   No mechanical defects have been found in either vehicle, and no   
   crash-related data have been retrieved from any vehicle devices   
   capable of recording and transmitting such data, the report   
   states.   
      
   Young has not yet been charged for the crash, but Uvalde County   
   District Attorney Daniel Kindred told Fox San Antonio his office   
   hopes to have a case prepared to submit to a grand jury in June.   
      
   Kindred said his office is awaiting a final report from the   
   Department of Public Safety, along with subpoenaed records   
   before it can move forward with analyzing the report's findings   
   and establishing charges.
