A Freeport teenager charged with crashing a van into a house, killing a woman gardening, told police she didn’t feel so bad after learning the victim’s age.
Kayla Gerdes, 18, was quoted in a written statement to police saying: “The thing that made me feel not so bad was she was old.” The comments were reported by Newsday, citing court records. She added: “I mean, 70 years is a long time to live.”

Hey .. A candidate for Obama's Health/Death boards!
Don’t laugh. A lot of young people feel this way.
And no drivers license and high on oxycodone.
Well Geeze
I searched using every key word that I could think of.
Guess I haven’t figured out the Search Engine yet!?
Here in California when prop 8 (gay marriage) was up for a vote, the gay leader against it said she’d wish old people would die so that the measure would pass.
The left just does not value life. Unless it’s their own.
Trash. At some point we need to get tired of this sh*t.
Is it only me that is having a hard time recognizing my own country anymore?
(don’t bother answering, I think that I know the answer)
LI Teen Involved in Fatal Crash Hospitalized
By ROB HOELL wpix.com
8:40 PM EDT, April 23, 2010HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (WPIX) - Kayla Gerdes missed her court appearance Friday due to a medical condition.
A source tells PIX 11 News the 18-year-old was being treated for withdrawal.
Gerdes admitted to police she was high on Oxycodone when she drove her boss' work van across Rebecca Twine's front lawn hitting and killing the 69-year-old who was cutting her grass.
"It was prescription drugs. It was a mistake," said Gerdes Wednesday as police lead her to arraignment court.
Gerdes' attorney isn't trying to hide that fact that the teen has a drug problem. He says she was actually on her way to family court at the time of crash in hopes of checking into a drug treatment program and her mother was waiting there.
"She said Mommy, this woman has died, how can I live with myself after that? I want to die," Tara Gerdes said in an interview with Inside Edition.
Gerdes started out as the passenger in van, but her attorney says she switched places with her boss who was taking her to court because he was to high to drive.
Gerdes attorney tells us he believes Steele's blood work will show he was high on Xanax.
Under New York State law a person can be charged with reckless endangerment if they knowingly allow a someone else who is intoxicated to drive. But even if Steele's is found to have been high at the time, police say it's unlikely he'll face charges, because it would difficult to prove he knew Gerdes was intoxicated.
The “silver lining” is, at least the old woman got killed in an unplanned, un-premeditated way.
Pretty soon, HALF the elderly folks in the USA will be “slated for termination” by Omoslem’s death panels.
You’re 76? Too bad, because Omoslem only authorizes this operation for people 74 and under. So sorry, go home, suffer and die!

Throw her in prison until she is 70.
They don't even value their own, as is evidenced by the abortion rate. It isn't conservatives killing off their own.
Feel the same way. :-(
And *then* let her tell us if 70 is a long time to live.
Gee, what a lovely girl. When (if) she reaches 70, those implants are gonna look great.
“Throw her in prison until she is 70”
I wouldn’t want my tax dollars paying for this trash. Tie her hands and feet and throw her off a freeway overpass.
