The driver of the car that crashed into a crowd killing four and injuring dozens at the Oklahoma State University homecoming parade Saturday is being held on manslaughter charges at the district attorney’s request.
Adacia Avery Chambers, 25, was arrested on a complaint of driving under the influence after the crash Saturday morning.
Payne County District Attorney Laura Austin Thomas said that Chambers is now being held on four manslaughter charges, and will likely be charged with driving under the influence of drugs. Alcohol is not thought to have been involved.
Bail has not been set, Thomas said, and Chambers will likely address bond conditions before a judge Monday afternoon.

Her lawyer is claiming 'mental illness.' I really have no doubt that's true, but she shouldn't escape responsibility for this.

In other words, no alcohol was found.

Think the drug legalization people will keep a low profile on this one.

I don’t know what kind of drugs might be involved, but prescription-type drugs would not surprise me.

Correct. I assume there was no alcohol in her bloodstream.

Im shocked that leftists haven’t called for a ban on cars after this. Looks like this crazy b*tch did it on purpose. According to her daddy, she would never drive drunk and witnesses said that she accelerated when she started hitting people with her car
To: JustaCowgirl
Damned shame for someone so young to get caught up in something like this. Prayers for the innocents. We’ll see how it turns out.

No problem, then. Confine her to a mental institution until a board of 36 psychiatrists unanimously pronounce her cured and are willing to be responsible for her. :P

Because no drug is mentioned my guess is pot.

There is a certain percentage of the population who will panic in such situations and will run. And then they hit more people or things, which magnifies the flight imperative.
These people should not be allowed to drive vehicles. :P

I’m pretty convinced she was suicidal and tried to take a lot of people with her.

Not to mention the fact that since the car can go more than 10 miles an hour it is obviously an “assault” vehicle!

I used to smoke pot years ago. Never had the desire to plow into a crowd of people, though.
To: stockpirate
Pot wouldn’t make you do something like this. You don’t get disconnected like that on pot.
Some psychotropic drug might. LSD at the wrong stage might, but only if it was your first time.
