[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw a picture of the SUV at a weird angle and a gold sedan, Toyota maybe, parked in the driveway, wonder if she was trying to manuver around it. [/quote]

That may have been a factor.

The sedan was parked very poorly and was really blocking the SUV in. Wonder if her husband was out the night before too. Even if she hadn't been so drunk that she crashed the car into the garage and was unable to get herself out of the burning car, clearly she was incapable of driving on the street as well.

I could be recalling this wrong, but sometimes can't your tolerance fail? I had an alcoholic relative who drank his "typical" amount and almost died one night when usually he was not all that visibly affected by the same number of drinks.

Did not know her personally but know people who move in those circles - people with those kind of careers tend to work hard and play very hard too and that often involves drinking. People who are also drinking heavily (possibly shots with that kind of BAC?) are not the best judges of how sober others are. Socializing overlaps with work contacts and can be a big part of the job. Parents like this are not typically up at the crack of dawn to pack lunches and rushing home to make dinner, their childcare arrangements often includes mornings, evenings and weekends. Families with careers like this often have daycare plus an au pair or nanny or multiple nannies. Hopefully the kids have a good support system and loving caregivers. Just incredibly stupid, unlucky and sad. Her parents lost one child and her brother will need care for the rest of his life. Amazing how much life can change in an instant. Will try to be motivated by this to really monitor my drink intake.
