" Arron and Jennifer are my second cousins.. we played in the dirt together as children. I am heart broken. This family lost another child several months ago. If you believe in God, please pray for them. "

" "Driving while addicted to a drug"? That's a crime? I can understand the driving under the influence, but driving while addicted? "

" I'm normally hard when it comes to penalties, but it seems this young man needs help and that his family has gone through enough all ready. Accidents happen and this punishes the family as much or more then the young man. "

" I wish there was a way to keep passengers out of vehicles that are being driven by selfish and stupid idiots. (Nothing personal....just an upsetting article.) I wish there was a way to get through to kids that, yes, they CAN die......I wish they would all lose those "it will never happen to me" attitudes. My best goes out to all who are affected by this tragedy. "
