00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,480

83
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,280

87
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: Jacky Okay, Tyler Hunt again, I'm looking at this invitation

88
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: sending Samantha off to prison party at Rick's Tavern and

89
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 1: Grilled Fairfield, Ohio. Event by Cricket Cynthia and Samantha Harvey.

90
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: She looks a lot different to here and her a

91
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: push up bra and tank top as opposed to her

92
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 1: much shot. Let's start at the beginning, Tyler Hunt, what happened? Yeah,

93
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: so this this party was put together, I guess by

94
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: friends of Samantha, and she seems to be listed as

95
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: a host too. But it was going to be hosted away.

96
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: She's throwing herself to prison party. It's unsure because she's

97
00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: listed as a host on the Facebook. I mean, Cheryl mccallim,

98
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 1: let's talk. Let's just digress and talk about etiquette. You

99
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 1: don't throw yourself a wedding shower or a bridal shower,

100
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: much less a quote off to prison party. So right there,

101
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: she's it for herself. Well into this at all, Cheryl.

102
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: There's seventeen going and twenty six is interested. Listen, this

103
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: is so vile and futred. What I think we should

104
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: look at is why aren't we, you know, doing sit

105
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: down dinners for pimps and rapists. Why aren't we having

106
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: a day at the carnival for child the lesters? I mean,

107
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: why are we just limiting this to drunk And when

108
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: you said I'm embarrassed for Jackie here in the studio

109
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: because she actually laughs, she obviously doesn't know she should

110
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: be embarrassed for herself. So I'm embarrassed for her because

111
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this picture of Samantha and her off

112
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: to prison party pick and now I'm looking at a

113
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 1: picture of these little girls in the hospital in a

114
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: coma with a tube down their throats. But let's talk

115
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: about that, Nancy so vile and putrid. These babies have

116
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: gone through brain injuries, dozens of broken bones, collapsed lungs,

117
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: a lacerated kidney, spinal fractures. Both were put into induced

118
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:43,839
Speaker 1: comas because they were so badly harmed. One child is

119
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: paralyzed for life. And you talk about every day that

120
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 1: families got to redesign their house for accessibility, get different

121
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 1: vehicles for her. They're going to be own going medical

122
00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: needs with both girls. This isn't ay, they're well, now

123
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:06,400
Speaker 1: it's not. And this woman was fifty when this happened,

124
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: and she could have had a new bush. It could

125
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 1: have had a taxi, she could have walked, She could

126
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,319
Speaker 1: have had one of her seventeen drunk friends come get her.

127
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 1: But she chose not to do that. She chose to

128
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: get in that car and take the risk of killing

129
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: two people. And she damn near did time stories with

130
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: Nancy Grace. I'm reading a letter that the mom and

131
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,319
Speaker 1: dad sent me. They don't want to speak until after

132
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: the sentencing on March the third. They say she was

133
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 1: a star athlete, star student. Prior to the accident. She

134
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 1: suffered a severe traumatic brain injury and is still confined

135
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: to a wheelchair. She will never be the same, and

136
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,959
Speaker 1: doctors told us we will never have the quote old

137
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,600
Speaker 1: kill a back. She has a long journey ahead, but

138
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: she's an amazing young lady and she's fighting hard every day.

139
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: She's truly a miracle and the doctors are amazed by

140
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 1: her progress every day. Tell me to you, Joe Scott

141
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: Morgan explain the injuries, and the mother goes on to state,

142
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 1: there's not a comparison or similarity to the injuries our

143
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: daughter suffered and the injuries that Savannah suffered. Explained the

144
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: injuries that kill A suffered. Please the injuries themselves, Nancy.

145
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 1: This arises from from what we referred to is blunt

146
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 1: for trauma. And this happens inside this cab of this car,

147
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: and it's it's ken to being placed into a dryer,

148
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: if you will, the largest dryer you can imagine, and

149
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,559
Speaker 1: the thing being turned on at high speed and you're

150
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: bouncing around, you're hitting every object in there, and even

151
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 1: even if you're restrained, you're going to sustain these massive fractures.

152
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: We talked about the spinal injuries, also the closed head injuries,

153
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 1: and so what happens as a result of this. In

154
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: this poor child's case, she's got hemorrhaging that is taking

155
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: place everywhere, and most notably nancy within her skull. And

156
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: that's you know, mac had mentioned just a moment ago

157
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: how she had to be placed into an induced comment.

158
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: The reason that, if you can imagine somebody celebrating this,

159
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: I just want to paint this picture for you. You've

160
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:05,719
Speaker 1: got this young girl whose brain is literally swelling inside

161
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 1: of her skull and there's nowhere for it to go.

162
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:13,599
Speaker 1: So in order to keep her in a position and

163
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: in an attitude so that she's not going to fight

164
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: against treatment, they have to place her own a ventilator,

165
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 1: and then an anathesiologist like you would see in a

166
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: surgery suite for all of our listeners that have ever

167
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: had surgery, anesthesiologist has to come in and place this

168
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: child into the deepest sleep you can imagine. And it's

169
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,599
Speaker 1: not just you know, surgery. We might get surgery, it

170
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: might last two or three hours, or maybe in certain

171
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: cases twelve hours, but for her this might be permanent.

172
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: This is a last resort event. They have to reduce

173
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 1: her heart rate down, her respiratory ratedown, and they have

174
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: to maintain it for day after day after day while

175
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 1: they keep these tubes down her throat, while they potentially

176
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 1: have to put what are referred to as inner press

177
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: intercranial pressure monitors into her skull in order to maintain

178
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: that pressure, and then give her steroids and these other

179
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: drugs that were duced swelling. That's just a stabilizer. We're

180
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 1: not talking about any kind of surgery she has to

181
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 1: have after this. This is a nightmare scenario, and it

182
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,559
Speaker 1: makes me sick to my back teeth to hear that

183
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: this woman would actually beat her chest over this and

184
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: celebrate what is happening to these children, you know, to you,

185
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 1: doctor jen Man, first of all, in defense of Rick's

186
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 1: Tavern and Grill in Fairfield, Ohio. As soon as they

187
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 1: got notice what was going on, someone wrote them, please

188
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: tell me you're not allowing this to actually happen at

189
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 1: your establishment. They immediately blocked the party. They went to

190
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 1: Facebook and they said, some of you have heard we're

191
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,719
Speaker 1: having a going to prison party here for someone that

192
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 1: caused an alcohol related accident and someone being permanently paralyzed.

193
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: We do not condone it. Our hearts go out to

194
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:15,079
Speaker 1: those effect of the event is canceled. However, we are

195
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: currently looking into officers for holding a fundraiser to benefit

196
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: the victims involved. Please keep these girls and their families

197
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: in your hearts and in your prayers. And I'd like

198
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: to join their request to you today to keep the

199
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: girls in your prayers. Their battle is far from over.

200
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: I want to go back to kill us aunt. It's

201
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: Christie Frakes and you can find them on goofundme dot

202
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 1: com under help the Nagle family and help the Shaluder family. Ma'am,

203
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 1: please tell me the extent of your niece's injuries. So

204
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: it's pretty severe to in the hospital for a hundred

205
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:05,720
Speaker 1: and six days. She is combined to a wheelchair. She

206
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: does therapy several days a week, several hours physical therapy,

207
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: speech therapy. The doctor say she'll never be the theme,

208
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: so we don't know if she'll ever walk again. We

209
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: hope and we pray that she will. As many of

210
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: you know by now, Keil and Eagle was a passenger

211
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 1: in the car that was struck by a drunk driver.

212
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: She suffered so many many injuries. The worst was the

213
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: laceration the left side of her head requiring fifteen staples,

214
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: and traumatic brain injury. She remained unresponsive in a coma

215
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: for two months. When she began to emerge from the coma,

216
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: doctors were amazed that she even woke up. We don't

217
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: now know now whether she will ever walk again. I

218
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 1: want to understand more about the perp. The perp driving

219
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: drunk that evening, The suspect, Samantha Harvey, is due to

220
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: be sentenced in just days. To you, Cheryl McCollum, what

221
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: do you know about what happened that evening? It was

222
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: about three am and the girls were, you know, just

223
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 1: driving down the road, minding their own business, and out

224
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: of nowhere comes this car nearly t bones them. You know,

225
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how much she had to drink. The perpetrator,

226
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: I don't know where exactly she was coming from. I

227
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: know the barring question said they had nothing to do

228
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: with it. They worked for me with her before her

229
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: party invitation, but that was it. I mean, you've just

230
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: got another person that made the decision to drink, made

231
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: the decision to drink too much and get behind the

232
00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 1: wheel of a car. And every decision the fifty year

233
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: old drunk may that day caused these two girls lives

234
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 1: and their families lives to be altered forever. To Christy Franks,

235
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: this is Kiela Nagel's aunt, Missus Franks. What do you

236
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: know about her activity that evening? Had she been at

237
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: a bar? What do we know? I don't know much

238
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 1: about that activity. Honestly, we just have been focused on Kila.

239
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 1: I don't Honestly, I don't think it was a bar

240
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: because of COVID. I think the bars were shut down

241
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,479
Speaker 1: at the time. Also amazing to me is that she

242
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:40,400
Speaker 1: faces just seventy eight months behind bars. Do you, Tyler

243
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 1: Hunt joining us from crime online dot com, what do

244
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 1: we know about her potential sentence? So, as you said,

245
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 1: she's facing up to seventy eight months in jail. Her

246
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: sentencing hearing is next month's I scheduled from March third,

247
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 1: so that will be the next time lead her an update,

248
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: And it was reported too that does she does have

249
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: a lengthy past criminal history history which included drugging well intoxicated.

250
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:20,880
Speaker 1: So I got Yould fact Room as well Crime stories

251
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 1: with Nancy Grace. You know, Cheryl McCollum, you know how

252
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: many hv's habitual violators I prosecuted over the ten years

253
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 1: I slugged it out in inner city Atlanta felony courtrooms.

254
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 1: I can't even count them all. HV. Habitual violator means

255
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: that you have at least more than one DUI driving

256
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: under the influence in your past. I mean after your

257
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: first one, your first two DUIs. What more do you

258
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 1: need to know? You cannot drive and drink period, Nancy,

259
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: This woman's been driving thirty five years. There's no telling

260
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:08,679
Speaker 1: how many times she has driven drunk or impaired. And

261
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 1: you know again her attitude. Do you think, well, she

262
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: played guilty, Maybe she has some remorse, Maybe she's taken

263
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 1: responsibility and then comes the party invitation, so she doesn't

264
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 1: realize it now maybe, but that judge is going to

265
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 1: know what she did and that's going to factor in

266
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 1: how much time she gets. So you played yourself. The

267
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: other statistic, either Cheryl McCollum or Jess got Morgan will

268
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,399
Speaker 1: now like the back of your hand, when someone has

269
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,479
Speaker 1: caught dout. It's kind of like the statistics as they

270
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: relate to child molestation. When somebody's finally caught and prosecuted,

271
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:56,320
Speaker 1: there are many many times before that that they have

272
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 1: offended and not being caught. What are the stats on

273
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 1: that Cheryl McCollum, Nancy, I'll being off the top of

274
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 1: my head, I think for every one DUI, they've driven

275
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: drunk at least twenty times, fifty times. I mean, it's

276
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 1: ridiculous the number that they drive and are not caught.

277
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: If you think about it, is the average person listening,

278
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 1: think how many speeding tickets you have had and how

279
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:23,360
Speaker 1: many times you actually were speeding Jess got Morgan. It

280
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: happens over and over and over, and many people still

281
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 1: refer to it as an accident. It is no accident.

282
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,040
Speaker 1: Hold on, Joe Scott, I'm going to go to our

283
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: lawyer on this. James shell Nut twenty seven years Metro

284
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 1: major case now lawyer at shell Nut Law Firm dot com.

285
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 1: It's no accident. When you after multiple DUIs, you know better.

286
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 1: This woman's fifty one years old and you go to

287
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 1: a bar sturge drinking. How are you going to get home?

288
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: You know you're not supposed to drive. You make the

289
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 1: decision to get your keys out of your purse, pay

290
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,680
Speaker 1: your bill, walk to your car, get in your car.

291
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 1: Unlike it, get in all of these take intent, is

292
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:08,360
Speaker 1: my point. Shell Nut. Crate the car up, reverse out

293
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: and start driving on the open road. All of that

294
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: shows intent. Oh yeah, absolutely. And you know when you

295
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:20,160
Speaker 1: look at the receptivism rates for DUI and you look

296
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: at people you know that have passed records like this,

297
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 1: I've done it. You know, it hovers around thirty percent,

298
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,959
Speaker 1: is what the receptivism rate is if a person's been

299
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 1: convicted of the UI before. So you look at that

300
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 1: thirty percent of people and the numbers start to shoot

301
00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,919
Speaker 1: way up as to how many more DUIs that person

302
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 1: continues to get. And you look at the judgment that

303
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: this lady has, and this is the exact type of

304
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: poor judgment, having this going off to prison party that

305
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: caused her to get in this vehicle in the first place.

306
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: And you know what these girls went throughout. Joe Scott

307
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 1: did a good job of point out the Indrews, and

308
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 1: so did Cheryl. You know when you look at these

309
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 1: car with it cases, Nancy, we talk about violent crowns

310
00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: all the time on the show, but a rious motor

311
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: vehicle accident is one of the most violent things that

312
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 1: can happen to a human being. If you've ever been

313
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 1: inside a car that has been catastrophically hit by another vehicle,

314
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: catastrophically damaged. You know the violence that occurs to you

315
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:20,640
Speaker 1: inside that vehicle, and it's heartbreaking to say someone who

316
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 1: has this type of history for two innocent people in

317
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 1: a violent car wreak like this, And you're right, it's

318
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 1: poor decision making. And she had every intent to get

319
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: in that car when she went in there, and she

320
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 1: deserves every day that this judge gives her. I'm just

321
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: surprised it's only seventy eight months. Guys, take a listen

322
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: to our cut four. This is Ashley Kirkland WLWT News five.

323
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: As the Nagle family waits for Kayla to wake up,

324
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 1: they want to send a message that they love and

325
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:53,879
Speaker 1: forgive Harvey. Savannah's brothers says he wants to see justice served.

326
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:55,719
Speaker 1: She's sixteen years old. She had her whole life out

327
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 1: of issue. Who was playing lacrosse, She was an athlete,

328
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: she ran track. We don't know if she'll be able

329
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 1: to do that. Devastating story for both of those families

330
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 1: and that community. Harvey has been charged with OVI and

331
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 1: aggravated vehicular assault. She does have a lengthy past criminal history,

332
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,760
Speaker 1: including driving while intoxicated. As for the two girls, they

333
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,439
Speaker 1: both remain in ICU, and due to COVID nineteen, only

334
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 1: one person can be there with them at a time.

335
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 1: What about it to you, You're the former president of

336
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 1: mad Georgia Mothers against Driving, Cheryl, there's nothing good. I

337
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: think the focus should now be on the fundraiser. I

338
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 1: think that people need to remember what was taken from

339
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: these young ladies more than their injuries. You know, you

340
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,440
Speaker 1: think this time of their life, you know prom and

341
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: like he said, her spurts teens and her friends. I mean,

342
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: they should be thinking about graduation or walking across that

343
00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:00,639
Speaker 1: stage and getting their college acceptance. They should not be

344
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: dealing with physical therapy and memory loss and bone healing.

345
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: It's pathetic, beyond belief. I want to go back to

346
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 1: kill and Eagle's aunt Christie Frakes. Miss Frakes again, thank

347
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 1: you for being with us. Tell me how her family,

348
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: her parents are holding up during this. It's the hardest

349
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 1: thing they've ever been through. I mean, their lives are

350
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: changed forever because on one person's decisions, poor decisions. Kaila

351
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: needs twenty four hour care, so my sister does not

352
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: work while she's taking care of her. She has not

353
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: worked since May. She can't work. She has to be

354
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 1: there with her. It's just you know, doctor's appointments, and

355
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 1: it's been a horrible, horrible, horrible time since Mary. We're blessed,

356
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 1: but she's still with us. I don't know what else

357
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 1: to say about it. It breaks my heart. I mean,

358
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: seventy eight months in prisons were ruining not just one

359
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 1: person's life, but many, many people. What are the doctors

360
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:21,159
Speaker 1: saying about her prognosis for Kayla? They, I mean the

361
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,199
Speaker 1: doctors from the hospitals said that she would never be

362
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 1: the same or they would never see who she was

363
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 1: before the accident with the athletics, and she played volleyball, basketball, lacrosse,

364
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 1: star athlete and everything she did to where now she's

365
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 1: combined to a wheelchair. She can't walk on her own.

366
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,160
Speaker 1: She can't do a lot of things on her own

367
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 1: that she used to. She lost her independence. Take a

368
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 1: listen to our friend and cut one Jessica Schmidt Fox

369
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: nineteen Now. They wrote messages of hope on every blue balloon.

370
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 1: It's the ad would lacrosse team's way of showing love

371
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 1: for fellow teammates Kayla Nagle and Savannah Schluter. Savannah would

372
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 1: always like she had an attitude and it always like

373
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 1: really lightened up the mood during practice and stuff like that. Yeah,

374
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,360
Speaker 1: and then Kayla's just really like hard working. They were.

375
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: They were like the last two members on the team,

376
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: I think, and I was really happy that they joined.

377
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,679
Speaker 1: The sophomore students are both hospitalized at UC Medical Center.

378
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,919
Speaker 1: They were seriously hurt in a two vehicle crash around

379
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: three this morning along Route four and Sims Road in Fairfield.

380
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 1: The news came as a shock to their family members

381
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 1: and classmates. Many of them came together to lean on

382
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:39,199
Speaker 1: each other for a prayer service tonight. Doing this shows

383
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 1: the community that we care for one of one another

384
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: and to show the both of the families out we're

385
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: standing behind their backs. That must give the families a

386
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 1: lot of encouragement. These two Tang girls put in comas

387
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: from a drunk driver with a long history of drunk driving.

388
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:03,439
Speaker 1: Savannah Schluder and Ella Nagel. We don't know if Keilla

389
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 1: will ever walk again after severe brain swelling from the incident,

390
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 1: Needing twenty four hour around the clock care. Her mom

391
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: leaving her job so she can care for her daughter.

392
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: Prime Stories with Nancy Grace. Guys, we were talking about

393
00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 1: a so called off to prison party arranged by quote

394
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: girlfriends of a long time drunk. There's really no other

395
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 1: way to put it. I'm talking about the defendant in

396
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 1: this case, fifty one year old Samantha Harvey, with a

397
00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: lengthy criminal history, including multiple alcohol related offenses, joining me

398
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 1: an all star panel. You know, I just wish that somehow,

399
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:14,360
Speaker 1: Joe Scott Morgan I could wave a magic wand and

400
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,200
Speaker 1: Kila Savannah I think is on the road to recovery.

401
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 1: Keela Nagel, just wish somehow we could will her. Well,

402
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: what is this stumbling block? What happened to leave her

403
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 1: in a position where she needs twenty four hour care.

404
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: She's not her same personality due to brain trauma. She

405
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: can't walk. What happened? Jo Scott, Well, you know, Nancy,

406
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 1: let's let's kind of break this down very briefly here.

407
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 1: With her ability to just basic motor functions, this sort

408
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: of thing is going to be greatly compromised because of

409
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 1: the brain trauma that she sustained. And when I'm talking

410
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: about that, it's her ability to move her arms, her

411
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: ability to speak clearly, her ability to actually think clearly,

412
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 1: or she might think clearly within her mind, but can

413
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,840
Speaker 1: that be translated to the rest of her body. Now

414
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 1: she's also got a spinal injury as well, so this

415
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 1: is going to further incapacitate her, and her ability is

416
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 1: not This has nothing to do with her her cognitive

417
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: ability to think, But what it does impact is her

418
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: ability to walk. Now, I do see something hopeful here,

419
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 1: and that is they're attempting some stem cell therapy with her.

420
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 1: And what this means is that if they can take

421
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: these these rooted cells, these these stem cells that they

422
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 1: can inject and use from a therapeutic standpoint, you might

423
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: have cellular regrowth and regeneration in the spine. And that's

424
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: hopeful in the sense that it could, as her aunt

425
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: was saying, just a moment ago, hopefully, prayerfully, this is

426
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: going to regenerate her ability to gain some of these

427
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: her mobility back. Again, I don't know so much about

428
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,600
Speaker 1: her her ability, her cognition, her ability to think, and

429
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,959
Speaker 1: as clearly as she would have prior to this horrible,

430
00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 1: horrible accident that we were talking about, because it is

431
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 1: out of you know, people think about blunt force trauma

432
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 1: as a mode of homicide, and you and I have

433
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: covered many cases where people have been beaten to death,

434
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: but the number one killer relative to car accidents is

435
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: actually the mechanism of blunt force trauma. More people die

436
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:45,080
Speaker 1: as a result of that because it is ultimately the

437
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: most violent thing that you can undergo, because your body's

438
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: encased in this steel and you're traveling down at a

439
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 1: high rate of speed, and then when you meet another

440
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: vehicle and as traveling at I equally high rate of speed,

441
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: it is absolutely catastropeic to anybody that's contained in those vehicles.

442
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: Take a listen to our cut six. This is Jessica

443
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 1: Schmidt at Fox nineteen. It's been tough for Kayla's family

444
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 1: and friends since many of them are not allowed to

445
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,239
Speaker 1: visit her because of COVID nineteen. Kayla's aunt says they

446
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: found other ways to stay connected, and we did a

447
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 1: FaceTime where we all prayed with her and prayed over her,

448
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: and she started moving her hands a little bit, and

449
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 1: that just touched my heart. As for Savannah, her father

450
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 1: says she's suffering from a bad concussion affecting her memory

451
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 1: and her balance, but she is out of the hospital.

452
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: Both families say they're beyond thankful for the community's kindness.

453
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: Thousands of dollars have poured in through online fundraisers. Her

454
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: parents are blown away at the support from the community.

455
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,959
Speaker 1: It has touched our hearts while Kayla continues down her

456
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: road to recovery her loved one. So her story will

457
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: serve as a reminder that it's never a good idea

458
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: to drink and get behind the wheel. You really don't

459
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: want to see this tragedy happened to anybody else. Not

460
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 1: because of just the pain that Kaila is going through,

461
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: or we don't even know what her future looks like,

462
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: but just in general, let's protect our young ones. And

463
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: I don't understand it because it happens over and over

464
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 1: and over again. I want to go back out to

465
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: Kila and Eagles Aunt Christie Frakes, Miss Frakes. What about

466
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 1: the other little girl we've been talking about Kiela, but

467
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: Savannah Schaluder sixteen suffered traumatic brain injury as well. How

468
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: is her recovery? So she had as far as I know,

469
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 1: she had a concussion, she's recovered, she's you know, she's recovering,

470
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: I should say, you know, she gets staying out with

471
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 1: her friends and go to school. I don't know much

472
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: about Savannah, but we do know about Kila. Your niece

473
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: tell me about Kila's memory and is her personality the same?

474
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: So Keila doesn't remember a lot of stuff like from

475
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: the accident or some things before the accident. Her personality,

476
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:23,120
Speaker 1: I mean there's her personality is personally there. She can

477
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 1: definitely make you laugh like she used to. I was

478
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,800
Speaker 1: just thinking about the prognosis about whether she will be

479
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 1: able to walk, but doctor seemed to keep saying she'll

480
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 1: never be the same again. Guys, I was telling you

481
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: that it's not the first time this has happened. Take

482
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 1: a listen to our cut thirteen chip yostat Ktla. James

483
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 1: Albarez is still trying to reconcile how the love of

484
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 1: his life, twenty three year old you see, Diaguilar, was

485
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 1: taken away from him at such a momentous point in

486
00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 1: their lives. This was just three months ago when at

487
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 1: a gender reveal party, the couple announced they were having

488
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 1: a girl. The due date was September twentieth. As the

489
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 1: date got closer, they started taking evening walks based on

490
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: the advice of their doctor, and it was on one

491
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,839
Speaker 1: of those walks Tuesday evening when everything changed. Both hold

492
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 1: your hand, I was trying to pull her a wave

493
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 1: towards me. James and Yusenya were walking here on Katella

494
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 1: near Bayliss when a white jeep driven by a woman

495
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 1: suspected of being under the influence, jumped the curb and

496
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: hit Yusenya. The soon to be mother wouldn't survive, but

497
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: amazingly doctors did manage to save the baby inside her.

498
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: The mommy senor Aguilar dead. Take a listen to our

499
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 1: cut twelve. This is Chris Holsham k CL nine. One

500
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 1: of the boys was pronounced dead on the scene. The

501
00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: other died at the hospital. Police arrested seven year old

502
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 1: Rebecca Grossman. We've learned she's a well known figure in

503
00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 1: the community. She even appeared on KCAL nine News at

504
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: noon last year to help raise funds for charity. It

505
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: really is, you know about collaborating. She's the founder and

506
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 1: chair of the Grossman Burn Foundation. She's also been recognized

507
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 1: for her humanitarian work across the world. Now she's faced

508
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 1: with two counts of vehicular manslaughter. Authorities say she was

509
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 1: driving in her the influence. It's senseless because it could

510
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 1: have been avoided simply by using uper lyft even calling

511
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 1: a friend and now two mustlike families are going to

512
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 1: be affected by this for generations. Captain Vassah also told

513
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 1: me Grossman did not stay on the scene and was

514
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,800
Speaker 1: arrested a quarter mile up the road. She was booked

515
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: on a two million dollar bail, and authorities believe there's

516
00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: also a second vehicle involved. That's all part of this investigation.

517
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 1: Dui driving under the influence from Little Boy's dead to

518
00:35:55,680 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: pregnant moms walking along the sidewalk and mode day down

519
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:05,960
Speaker 1: by drunk drivers. Cheryl McCollum, why are our laws structured

520
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,800
Speaker 1: the way that they are as a matter of fact,

521
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:13,919
Speaker 1: in this particular case where Keela Nagel and Savannah Shaluterer

522
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: were t boned and suffered horrific injuries. The max she's

523
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 1: looking at a seventy eight months as she the defendant

524
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 1: has a long history of alcohol related crimes. It's just maddening, Nancy.

525
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 1: And again, all the legislation, all the fights that have

526
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:36,919
Speaker 1: come before, you know, lowering the blood alcohol to point eight,

527
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 1: increasing having driver's license, have that staggered ability, so you're

528
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 1: not just putting a card at sixteen and you can go.

529
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 1: You know, you've got that graduated license. There's so many

530
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,280
Speaker 1: things we've tried to do to educate people. This crime

531
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:56,120
Speaker 1: is one hundred percent preventable. And again now with uber

532
00:36:56,160 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: and lyft, there's no excuse none. I don't care if

533
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: you're an alcoholic, you know you're an alcoholic. I've never

534
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 1: once met an alcoholic, it didn't know they were. I mean,

535
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 1: you can you know pre plan to say, hey, I'm

536
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,359
Speaker 1: going here, I'm gonna get dropped off and I'm gonna

537
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: get picked up. It's simple. And when you look at

538
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: six and a half years is all she's looking at.

539
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,720
Speaker 1: And if Kayla does not have good luck with sim therapy,

540
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,360
Speaker 1: then she's looking at a life sentence in that chair.
