A sickening update on Johnny Gaudreau's alleged killer

Lock him up and throw away the key.

According to a repot from CNN, Sean Higgins, the New Jersey man accused of killing NHL star Johnny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew Gaudreau while driving drunk, has been removed from his position by his employer Gaudenzia.

The sickening thing? Higgins, who admitted to having '5 or 6 beers' prior to driving, worked at an alcohol and addiction treatment center. By their own account Gaudenzia is one of the largest nonprofit substance and co-occurring disorders treatment centers in the USA with 51 locations on the east coast. Higgins reportedly worked directly with patients seeking to overcome their addictions. It's almost cliche for me to point out the dark irony in this all...

CNN also reports that Higgins was an active member of New Jersey's National Guard and served time with the US Army in Kosovo in 2019. He was promoted to Major during his stint in the developing country.
