My mom was killed in Bakersfield, CA by a lady who was a nurse working a double shift taking uppers and downers, she side swiped cars and ran stop signs and red lights before hitting my mom who was crossing a cross walk on a green light with my 5 year old brother. He seen the lady coming and yelled at my mom but she didn't hear him. She flew 100 ft. before she landed and was crushed when she landed she died when she got in the hospital doors. The lady who hit my mom and killed her only got 8 months in a mental institution and is now a so called Reverend. She told me she served her time in a mental institution for 8 months and that should be fine with my mom's six kids. I told her she took our only mom from us and she didn't seem to care in the least. :'(

Dear Tammy, I am so sorry for your loss of your mother. I do so hope your brother was able to heal from the injuries he must have had too. I have a hard time understanding how someone who was working as a nurse was mentally incapable of knowing right from wrong. And do not personally think that taking uppers or downers would be an excuse for anything. She chose to take them obviously, and any impairment from that would have been her own fault IMO. And her failure to even stop makes it even worse. But things were more lenient in many ways back in the 70's too. I think if she were convicted under the current DUI/vehicular homicide laws in CA it would be much more severe, or at least I hope so. And she may be a so-called "reverand" but her response to you was heartless IMO. Sounds to me like she only cared about herself and what she wanted on the day she ran that light, and kept going, and that has not changed. What a horrible thing to say to you, when you should have had so many more wonderful years with your mother, if not for that woman and what she did. I hope you can find some comforts of some kind here, in talking with others. Blessings are wished for you dear lady.

Thank You for you concern, I think about what could have been and how or why that lady did what she did. I don't understand how she can have these types of jobs when she murdered someone. But I suppose people can change not sure if she did or not, just didn't seem like she has by the way she talked to me. No concern for my mom or her six kids lives ruined because she ended their mothers life for her stupidity. Well I pray she don't hurt noone else as long as she lives

I'm glad you found this board and hope you find some comfort here. I think it's an outrage the perpetrator really didn't do any time! >:( Plus, her reaction to you was pure EVIL. >:( I think anyone who murders should NEVER be free again, no matter how sorry the person is! The only exception to me is if the person is proven innocent through DNA, etc. I think it's highly likely she has NO conscience. >:( You and your family have been through hell and it makes me sick. NONE of you deserved to have that garbage said about how her sentence was good enough! >:( Again, welcome to the board. Take care.
