Woman on Phone Drives Jeep into Herd of Cows: Cops
NBC New York ^ | Monday, Nov 4, 2013

Posted on 11/05/2013 5:24:24 AM PST by Gamecock

Police arrested a 21-year-old New York woman who allegedly drove into a herd of cows in Orange County, seriously injuring three of them.

Authorities say Daisy Cowit, of Wawayanda, was using her cell phone when she plowed her Jeep Liberty into the cows on Mountain Road last Monday. Six of the cows were struck, and two farm workers were nearly hit, police said.

Three of the cows had to undergo emergency surgery for their injuries; they survived.

Cowit was charged with reckless endangerment, criminal mischief and reckless driving. She also faces charges of driving while using a cell phone and failure to exercise due care, both traffic infractions.

It wasn't immediately clear if Cowit had a lawyer.

“Some lawyer is going to milk this for all it’s worth.”

I agree. A good lawyer will present this in way that the jury will just have a cow when they see the facts.

Some of the comments on this thread are udderly ridiculous.
The facts of this case are not as ‘Black and white’ as they appear.
So let’s just Hoof this one into touch.

i just meant the entire story with her name being Daisy Cowit, hitting a bunch of cows... and from Wawayanda... one or two of these things together is believable—maybe... but all of it is incredulous! :)

She'll NEED a good lawyer, if those were BLACK and white cows!
