For those of you that are not familiar with this story, Diane Schuler, 36, drove the wrong way on the Taconic Parkway for nearly 2 miles before her minivan slammed into an SUV on July 26. Schuler, her 2-year-old daughter, Erin, and three young nieces were killed, along with three men in the SUV.
This story is a total HOT MESS. I mean since the beginning, there has been SO much misinformation in the media. Case in point. Directly after the accident the news was reporting that 1) a vodka bottle was found outside near the vehicle. This soon changed to 2) a vodka bottle was found inside the car under the seat. So my question here is What is it? Was it inside the car or outside the car. Or was it placed there??
Next, has anybody finger printed the vodka bottle to prove that it was indeed held by her and take a DNA sample from it? One would think that they would have but there is no indication of this being the case. Why not? It seems that the autopsy results are saying that she was intoxicated (from drinking vodka & smoking marijuana) but how does one find the time to drink that much Vodka and smoke Marijuana especially after leaving a McDonalds? If she had just eaten at McD's wouldn't there have been food in her stomach that would of slowed down the effects of the alcohol?
And what about the timeline here. It just seems that events did not happen in the way they are being described. She leaves a Mc D's and everyone says she appeared fine. She leave the campground and she's fine. Well if she's fine then did she stop somewhere along the way at a rest stop and eat, drink, and smoke pot? And if so, you mean to tell me that nobody saw this happening? Or was she drinking and smoking while driving? If she was smoking marijuana while driving I would think that there would be residue in the lungs of the children. Has this proven to be the case in their autopsies?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not supporting what the woman did because it's horrible in itself BUT there seems to be so many unanswered questions here. Adding to this, just recently Warren Hance, who lost three daughters in the crash, was quoted as being furious that Schuler was driving drunk and high, but is also enraged that her husband is denying she had a problem.
At the end of the day no matter who is at fault, this is just one tragic story.
