brightlights : I believe he was allowed to go to school in Colorado. His probation had some kind of stipulation about him returning to spend time in jail once a month, or during the Summer months. I cannot remember exactly, but I do remember thinking that it would be costly having to come back to Texas so often for his jail time.
 
eighteen : His parents took a real proverbial beating after this. I just remember feeling that what-would-you-do kind of thing. The agonizing pull between being in favor of consequences vs. the unbreakable instinct to protect your child. I don't think anyone who hasn't been in these shoes would have any idea how they would react.
 
One of the girls' dads was a teacher at AHS at the time.

LifesABeach : Many high schools participate. When mine were there, IIRC, the program was more concentrated toward Texas schools, but I don't know if it has expanded to other states. It's a worthwhile project, imo! Do you recall seeing a makeshift memorial on the median directly across from Culver's? abc13.com/atascocita -high-school-student s-killed-crash-drunk -driving-northe Anyone know what eventually happened with Jagger? It was a terrible situation in every possible way. There's a whole lot more to this story...maybe West-Tex can find the lengthy discussion about it on ADC. (RIP, Salma and Chloe. My heart still breaks a little all the years later. 💔)

I'm curious if anyone's kids had much to say about the event. It has been years since I have seen this presentation.

brightlights : I think he and his parents got off fairly easily. At least he's alive. The girls' families can't say the same. Like you, I pray for them too, that they may somehow be granted peace.
