'It's Not Right:' Father Speaks Out After Man Charged In Son's Death Gets 90 Day Jail Sentence

A Green Country father says he has no closure and now no justice after the man responsible for hitting and killing his son, is sentenced to 90 days in jail.

"He gets to get out after three months and walk around. My son is in the ground,” said Brad Morrison’s dad, Jeff Morrison.

Last week, Hayes Violett pleaded guilty to misdemeanor negligent homicide after crashing into Brad Morrison's motorcycle, killing Morrison last summer.

Jeff Morrison said his son was a true family man and loved his kids; now, he won't get to see them grow up. Morrison said he can't move on knowing the man responsible for his son's death, will walk free in three months.

"He had an addicting smile,” said Morrison. “His character just drew you to him. He loved to ride. We liked to do it as a family."

Morrison said his son, Brad, loved life, loved his family, but really loved motorcycles.

Brad was hit and killed while riding his motorcycle last summer.

"It is hard to get on my bike because this is just like what Brad was riding when he got hit,” said Morrison.

Morrison says he rides by himself a lot and as he does he thinks about Brad.

"His mother and him are both with me. It's got a sticker that has his name, the date of his birth, the day he was killed,” said Morrison.

Morrison said he can't put into words the pain of losing his son, but it makes it more painful knowing the man responsible will soon walk free.

“There's no justice for Brad in what is happening to Hayes Violett. There's no justice in that,” said Morrison. “He doesn't get to see his kids grow up. He's got two daughters and two boys."

Violett pleaded guilty to negligent homicide, which is a misdemeanor in Oklahoma, after Violett's test results determined he wasn't under the influence. That doesn't sit well with Morrison.

"It's a misdemeanor. How is it a misdemeanor killing someone with your vehicle? It's hard to try and live with, knowing that Brad is not getting justice,” said Morrison.

Morrison said he's determined to get the law changed, so no other family has to go through this.

"They have got to fix this,” said Morrison. “I don't want to see another family go through what we are going through, because of Oklahoma's laws. It's not right. We should not have to go through that. We should have some type of closure.

Violett’s attorney told News On 6 he feels terrible for Brad’s family, but said he's proud Violett took responsibility for his actions.
