The DA indicates "no evidence" of alcohol or drug involvement. Delgado is under 21 so she isn't of legal age for alcohol in California.
To: lexington minuteman 1775
Article says no alcohol involved and it looks as if she's legal. Regardless of those things, she still did something very stupid and now she's going to be made an example. She seems remorseful enough, but being sorry doesn't make you innocent.

Were the Tongans wearing seat belts?

Why the up in bail? If it is because of who the victims were?...it just doesn't seem right to me....if joe schmoe was killed by this woman...would the bail be 3 million dollars?
To: skaterboy
An act of stupidity without intent to hurt anyone should not get anyone 8 years. Was she stupid?.... YES! Go to prison for 6 years......... NO!!!

she wasn't just "speeding" - she was racing on a public road. there is far greater intent in that act, then simply driving 70 in a 55 in the left lane.

The previous days coverage of the accident indicated all those killed were wearing seat belts, but the driver was partially ejected during the rollovers and then crushed by the vehicle when it came to rest.
Actually the rescuers had hoped the royal couple in back had survived the crash, but the roof apparently collapsed and they suffered massive head trauma.
I thought new beefy SUVs would have better roof reinforcement.
To: eastforker
OK, not that I think this should be a capital offense, fair enough.
But the facts known in this case so far, makes it far worse then a simple traffic accident. max jail time for sure.
