The families of a pregnant couple who were killed after being struck by a teenager in a stolen car in south-east Queensland have hit out at the "grossly inadequate" punishment he received, saying they had been serving a "life sentence" since the day the pair died.
In January last year, a drug- and alcohol-affected 17-year-old boy was driving a four-wheel drive in Alexandra Hills when it collided with a tow truck, causing it to roll and strike 31-year-old Katherine Leadbetter and her 37-year-old partner, Matthew Field.
