Two men sentenced to prison for causing a fatal street race in east London that killed their 18-year-old friend Haaris Usman, whose mother called him a kind-hearted soul and said she’ll carry a life sentence of grief. Islam, high on multiple substances, initiated the deadly race; both drivers lost control, Islam’s car hit a tree, killing Haaris and seriously injuring another passenger. Islam got 10 years and 6 months, Alam 8 years — both convicted of causing death and serious injury by dangerous driving. Islam expressed remorse, while the defense claimed no intent to harm. Haaris’s mom hopes the sentences deter others — because once a life is lost, nothing can bring it back.
