DEPRAVED INDIFFERENCE MURDER IN THE CONTEXT OF DWI HOMICIDES IN NEW YORK RYAN J. MAHONEY' INTRODUCTION On a cloudy, drizzly summer night in 2006, Martin Heidgen met a friend for drinks after work. Later in the evening, he attended a party where he continued to drink. By two o'clock in the morning he had become highly intoxicated. He left the party and proceeded to drive home. During the trip, he drove his car onto a divided parkway heading in the wrong direction towards oncoming traffic. He struck a limousine head on, killing the fifty- nine-year-old driver and a seven-year-old girl. He was convicted of second-degree murder. "Thou shalt not kill."' One of the most fundamental and intuitive maxims of human law and morality is the prohibition of murder. The killing of another person has long been regarded as a lurid and intolerable wrong against society. Laws prohibiting murder have existed for thousands of years and have evolved considerably as society and the legal system have become more advanced.
