Driver all smiles after fatal, allegedly drunken crash

A Florida woman flashed a carefree smile in her mug shot — despite the possibility of facing manslaughter charges for allegedly crashing her car while drunk and killing a 60-year-old woman.

The accident happened in Ocala just before noon May 10, when boozed-up driver Agenette Marie Welk rammed into the back of a 2017 Hyundai Elantra with her 2011 Chevrolet Avalanche on US Route 27, according to Villages News.

The impact sent the Hyundai — driven by 18-year-old Shiyanne Kroll, whose mother, Sandra Clarkson, was in the passenger seat — hurtling toward the tractor-trailer in front of it.

Kroll’s car became partially wedged under the trailer, which was carrying horses.

I’m shocked it was someone from Florida.

Looks aside, the victim didn’t die until four days after the picture was taken. And the victim died of a stroke.

The drunk driver may not have known the seriousness of the accident victim’s condition.

It is no excuse for her but I can’t totally condemn the driver for not showing remorse for things that transpired after the fact.

She was drunk driving...pushed their car under a tractor trailer and the mother was critically injured - that she knew. I’d take that misplaced compassion and shove where the sun don’t shine, but that’s just me.

Prosecutor Lazamataz would punish the offender.

It is just you. Most others around here aren’t big mouth virtue signalers.

Not an unattractive woman

But drunk before noon indicates major psycho

She’s looking at 7-10 served is my guess

If she’s not dipped in the lady pond before she damn will now

They all do

You assume the "stroke" was something somewhat unrelated to the trauma. A traumatic brain hemorrhage directly related to the impact can also be called a "stroke."

The driver--drunk before noon--has plenty of reasons to regret her actions before the fatality. Her behavior before and during the mug shot is beyond inappropriate and reckless. She deserves the heap of trouble she has brought upon herself.

Narcissism in spite of it all

I did not assume that.

I am not condoning drunk driving, especially before noon.

I do assume mugshot photographers do their best to flirt with attractive drunk girls and try to get them to smile outside of considerations of the seriousness of their crimes.

Going by the photo, I tend to doubt that!

I don’t consider myself a virtue-signaller but your posts here haven’t been very intelligent.

The radiologist and neurosurgeon would have a very good understanding of the "stroke" pathology. I do, indeed, suspect the brain insult is directly related to injury sustained during the impact. Could be my 30+ years of experience. Could be simple common sense. Who knows?

The other car is partially wedged under a truck, and she still smiles like this? I call her an idiot, and I do condemn her for not showing remorse.
