Her size and supposed celebrity are immaterial, she was drinking, she caused the accident that's all that matters. Let the law be applied when she goes to court.

His wife will forever have this linked to her birthday...I cannot imagine her depth of sorrow.

The entire family deserves justice.

I recall telling my friends that I refuse to be on the roads from 1 am til 3 am....sheerly because far too many inebriated are attempting to drive .

Her speech was slurred. She probably said "twenty-four" but it was so unintelligible that the officer making the report thought she said "two to four".

How isn't it premeditated when she got behind the wheel of her car after drinking four drinks?

Police will tell you nothing good happens after midnight. Even being a DD is dangerous at 2am when the bars all close.

That is exactly how I feel. I mentioned the show because I never heard of it, or her, neither did the cop who arrested her.

I also know the area extremely well and know how confusing it is getting on the highway from the oceanfront. I've seen plenty of drivers try to turn there not realizing all the lanes are one way. Her being drunk, I'm not surprised at all that she turned there especially because she was new to the area.

It is related to amount of alcohol to body weight. The killer was 77 pounds. One adult beverage probably gets her to the point of not being able to count past a babboon's, "One, Two, Many."

The murder itself has to be premeditated for first degree in most jurisdictions. She had to have got behind the wheel with the conscious intention to kill.
