1. She was charged earlier that day with underage consumption at approximately 1 in the afternoon, this accident happened at 6 in the evening. I do find fault however with the officer that charged her earlier in the day, they could have prevented this tragedy from happening by simply taking her to jail at that time. Have a look at her court records online from link:http://www.perrycountycourt.com/Search/

2. Witnesses at the scene observed her and her passenger tossing aerosol cans out of the window into the bushes prior to the cops arriving, which they found. Her passenger fled the scene and was later apprehended with drugs on his person.
3. This young lady was also breaking the state of Ohio law by not having required vehicle insurance. This means that the car that she hit head on which was totaled cannot be replaced because of money problems, the motorcycle that she hit was totaled killing the driver and now his family has incurred funeral expenses which they are having a tough time paying for. The seven year old little girl that was on the motorcycle was life flighted to childrens hospital where she has been in the critical care unit since the accident happened with severe and life threatening injuries. With no car insurance there is no one to pay these hospital bills nor for her what's sure to be outstanding medical debts once she does get to come home. She gets a free court appointed attorney provided for her but these families get nothing.
4. Being that someone had to point out that her partying pictures should be removed from facebook should show alone that she has an issue with intoxication. Not to mention that she is underage to begin with.
5. When the cops arrived on the scene she was observed being abusive towards them. She was tested at the scene for alcohol/drugs and the tests came back as positive before they charged her with the driving under the influence charge.
6. She herself told the cops that she had fallen asleep at the wheel.
7. Unfortunately this young lady has an issue with alcohol/drug abuse. The sad thing is that it took this tragedy, and someones life to bring it to light.
8. Please read the following before making any decisions, I know that it is media, however comments from witnesses on social media also back up what the cops at the incident had stated.

9. Before you donate to her legal defense that she can already get free of charge please just sit back a minute and think about it. If you would like to donate to the families of the victims in this horrific crash you can donate here:

I know that this is where my money will be going.
I understand that she deserves council and is innocent until proven guilty, however at some point she needs to take accountability and not put the blame where it doesn't belong. I do feel for her family having to go through this, but I also feel for the families of those that were harmed in this accident. I honestly hope that she can get the help that she so desperately needs from this. However I also do not believe that her brakes went out simply based on her prior history and witnesses at the scene.
Sorry if this upsets you however I wanted those that are thinking of making a donation to be fully aware of the situation before they donate their money.
