Let me get this straight–this woman is convicted for having sex with teenage boys so that she would be perceived as a “cool mom”, and the day before her sentencing, allows an underage driver to drive her SUV! The 14-year old underage driver then rolls the vehicle off a highway embankment, and just to top things off, she and her children (all passengers in the vehicle) are seriously injured because only the driver was wearing a seatbelt! Talk about bad judgement! [http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9503082/](http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9503082/) ---

Just being in the car with those kids violated about 57 court orders. Right–I didn’t even mention the part about her violating a restraining order barring her from having contact with her children (who were injured in the crash). ---

Maybe it’s just me, but my first thought was that considering the timing of this accident, and the fact that she had her kids in the car - maybe she was trying to get them all killed (herself included) in some twisted murder/suicide thing, involving wrestling the wheel from the driver suddenly, or something like that. I hope and, in fact, suspect that this wasn’t the case, but it just seemed very fishy at first glance. ---
