That’s just how it is and for those of you getting your first window into it, you should be shocked. Don’t let that feeling wear off.

Terrible tragedy for all those affected.

These were college kids FWIW. Agree though there’s a huge drinking culture in APS. The parents are just as guilty; so many happy hour then drive to football games. I don’t let anyone else drive my teens at night.

They were home from college reliving all their high school behavior is the point.

Just as a point of fact. The 18 year old was likely driving his parents car around at 2am. Unless he owned his own vehicle. So at a minimum we know they allowed that. Which on its face is not a great plan.

I’m not a lawyer but does this mean he will be sitting in jail until his trial?

An 18 year old from Yorktown area likely has his own car.

That his parents bought him and own and pay the insurance on. Are you kidding? It’s still the parents car!

I know people love to blame Yorktown for all the APS issues that are alcohol related but this was a WL/HB tragedy.

Sheer stupidity of driving drunk.

Two weekends ago, I witnessed a non fatal, single driver DUI accident on my street. It was very upsetting. Driver went to jail. Car totaled all air bags deployed. I had to call rescue.

You give a curfew to your college age students home on fall break? I mean come on the issue is not that the kid was driving a car that may have been funded by his parents. The issue is that the kid decided to drink and drive. Still not a reflection on the parents.

I thought he went to HB and was districted to Yorktown as he played baseball for them.

I stand corrected.
2 days ago — The suspect, Brooks Bare, is a 2024 graduate of H-B Woodlawn who played baseball and ultimate frisbee, online sources suggest

Good point. The families will probably sue the pants off the bare family.

This is what we’re up against. This mindset. If you feel good about it, go to sleep and don’t worry about your 18 year old who is a known partier driving around in the middle of the night in the car you own and pay for that your family calls “Johnny’s car”. Sleep like a baby. Not your problem.

I guarantee you this has very much now become his parents problem.
