Mother playing 'chicken' with her kids fatally strikes son with SUV, officials say

A Houston woman who was driving a sport utility vehicle toward her children in an apparent game of "chicken" struck and killed her 3-year-old son, authorities said. Lexus Stagg, 26, was arrested and charged with criminally negligent homicide in the boy's June 11 death, Harris County prosecutors said in a statement Friday. “Cars aren’t toys and playing chicken with your kids isn’t a game,” Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg said in the statement. Stagg can be seen on surveillance video reversing a white Lincoln Navigator in an apartment complex parking lot as her three small children run toward the vehicle, prosecutors said. When the kids are just feet from the SUV, it moves forward, trapping the 3-year-old under the right front tire.

She should not be allowed to reproduce.

But of course, discrimination caused her problems.

“Lexus” was driving a white Lincoln Navigator?

Gotta feel sorry for the kid, though.

Great “game” mom.

This heartbreaking story begs the question:

When playing chicken against your three year old child, if you run him over because he doesn't jump out of the way, who wins?

Don’t we all feel great having provided this woman with a Lincoln Navigator? I wonder if she ever thanked anyone for it?

WTF does race have to do with this article??

Maybe you only watch the news that fits what you like because there’s enough white trash in Florida alone to fill the Fresh Kills twice.

This site ISN’T stormfront.

But a number of folks on her belong there.

SMFH

I speculate that this stupidity was the results of mind altering drug use. Of course, we will never know because the news reports about such insanity are always lacking in details.

“Lexus” was driving a white Lincoln Navigator?

Saw that a few times in New Orleans obituaries, back in the late 1990s. One guy had kids named Tercel, Fiero and Camry.

That’s not “playing Chicken”. The real game involves two drivers heading toward each other at speed. The driver who turns to avoid a head-on is the “chicken” and the loser of the game. If I recall, one of the classic James Dean movies featured a realistic game of Chicken. The perp in this case is just a Toyota with extra bling.

What does race have to do with it, well since you brought up race. Let’s look at some key words,
Lexus
Lincoln navigator
Apartment complex
3 young children
Perhaps nothing, but if so why so defensive
