June 27th, 2009

This pedestrian accident case resulted in the death of a young woman and the incarceration of the young man who was driving drunk at the time of the accident.  The young woman, 16 years-old at the time, and the young man, 19 year-old at the time, had been to the same party.  They know each other.  They were friends.  She left the party on foot.  He left a bit later in a borrowed car.  But while at the party, he drank.  And then as he drove the car down a dark and windy road he hit the young woman, his friend.  She did not survive the accident.  Now, a year later he has been sentenced by a judge to serve three years for his actions.
