Colonel Flagg | Unfortunately this family will never get the chance to find out "what if?" .... | ||

Tadao | Some disagree with me, but I still say "Treat the person, not the addiction." | ||
Aug 8th, 2009 12:31 PM | |||
Jeanette X | Precisely. I doubt this would've happened if addiction wasn't so stigmatized... | ||

Tadao | It's not that hard to hide it, what is hard is getting people to see that you are a time bomb without them telling you to man up. Thanks Dr. Phil! | ||

Tadao | I think it is exactly what it looks like. She had been hiding her troubles and addictions from her family, no one knew she was in trouble so no one tried to help her, she finally got numb enough to die. | ||

Presumably, yes. There was a broken bottle of vodka at the wreck... Besides, even if that were the case, she should've passed out behind the wheel very quickly, she shouldn't have been able to drive at all, even if it was the wrong way. |

Evil Robot | I went and looked at the exit she got on from today, the fucked up thing is that the way the intersection is set up, it feels like your supposed to go that way. If it weren't for the four or so huge signs and cars coming at you, I could see how any confused person could make that mistake. | ||

Jeanette X | They said it was the equivalent of ten shots. | ||

Jeanette X | Diane Schuler was 5'2 and she wasn't fat. With ten shots of hard liquor in her system, she should not have been able to stand up, let alone drive a car in ANY capacity. The booze should have killed her through alcohol poisoning. Therefore, she must've had an extremely high tolerance...the kind of tolerance that only very heavy drinkers develop. She must've been a closet alcoholic. | ||

Evil Robot | I drive past that spot everyday on my way to work, there's burn marks all over the grass and chunks of pavement missing. The scary part is I had left work early but I had taken the train that day instead of driving. I would have been within a 15 minute window of being on the northbound side the same time as her. | ||

Maybe someone fed her the alcohol/pot without her knowing it. Sad story. |

Her husband is disputing the autopsy results and insisting that she must've had something medically wrong with her. I smell denial. I think it might have been a suicide mission. One of the eyewitnesses (a man in another car who narrowly avoided being hit by her) said that she appeared to be control of the car and not swerving or anything, and she was even following the curve of the road. The New York Post reports that she was a regular at a bar and talked about having marital problems and a stressful job while she was there. Quote:

This story has so many levels of sadness, it has "movie of the week" written all over it. |

elx | yeah, all of the kids should have been old enough to understand that something was going wrong, they must've been really scared | ||

Jeanette X | Maybe when her son comes out of the hospital he'll be able to shed some light on it...assuming he isn't brain damaged. | ||
