Yet Again, Drunk Driver Gets Jail Time After Drunken Facebook Post
February 2, 2010
Ashley Sullivan, 17, was drunk the night she crashed her car into a brick pillar. Her 20 year old boyfriend was killed in the crash.
A month later, she went to Florida and posted a photo on her Facebook page entitled "Drunk in Florida."
The judge told her flatly that her conduct after the crash had earned her six months in jail along with five years probation, during which she may not drink. The N.Y. judge also refused to grant her youthful offender status.
Add this to a long list of drunk young folks that have managed to get themselves incarcerated by posting photos which make them look anything but remorseful.
Stupid to post, stupid to drink after being responsible for the maiming or killing of someone while drunk behind the wheel. Forrest Gump was right. "Stupid is as stupid does."
