On bended knees

With a bottle in his hands all his problems vanished but the only problem Jack couldn't solve was his addiction. It began when his daughter died in a plane crash, since then the only place Jack could escape reality was getting drunk.
His wife was the only one left to deal with his drinking problem since he had no relatives while trying to cope with her loss. She thought talking to a psychologist might help his situation but he insisted on not going for rehabilitation. One night, he was brought home by a friend who claimed he had gotten into a fight after getting drunk at the bar. This led to a serious argument between Jack and his wife. When he had enough, he went out and drove off still under the influence of alcohol. He didn't notice how fast he was driving until he hit someone trying to cross the road. He got out of the car to check if the person was still alive, before he knew it he had been surrounded by the police and knowing fully well what he had done, he got down on his knees and put his hands behind his head.
