Was the biker the police chief's son-in-law, or some rot like that?

Most hit-and-runs don't even result in jail time[1]. But sure, I can believe that hitting and killing the wrong person sometimes results in the law coming down on you like a ton of bricks.

I read the whole article twice but didn't see anything saying that "Most hit-and-runs don't even result in jail time“.

It basically says that statistics on conviction are unknown, and sometimes people don't see jail time.
