She mowed down a helpless, elderly woman while driving a van high on drugs, but a twisted Long Island teen still claimed to see a bright side to the horrific crash.

"The thing that made me not feel so bad was, she was old," hellcat Kayla Gerdes, 18, told investigators after she was busted for killing 69-year-old Rebecca Twine Wright as the retired doctor trimmed her lawn Tuesday, a source told The Post.

Gerdes, of Freeport, claimed to once be a model. And she was so self-absorbed in the hours after the wreck that she told cops interviewing her she wants "to see a newspaper of the news, to see what I look like."

So sad. It looks like she's a picture-perfect product of what the liberal media and Hollywood shapes young women to be - stupid, vain, slutty, drug-addicted and willing to do 'anything' for a buck.

"The thing that made me not feel so bad was, she was old," hellcat Kayla Gerdes, 18... Which you will be when you get out of prison........................

This is what we have come to as a country...
The 60’s wave of cavalier sex,do-your-own-thing attitudes
and rampant drug use,coupled with permissiveness,political correctness,the sense of entitlement and total disregard for human life has brought us to this point. God help us.

“Hellcat”? What is this, the 1930’s?

[Dudoight]

If she is an example of the humans we are now producing in this society....God help us.

I just can’t comprehend the narcissism so prevalent today.

[Red Badger]

Maybe they can Lindsey Lohan to play her in the movie version.................

She will probably not spend one day in prison. Her slick lawyer will convince the jury that it was the old lady’s fault for being on her lawn.

[Red Badger]

If she is an example of the humans we are now producing in this society....God help us.

She is an example of what LIBERAL humans produce................

[Red Badger]

Juries are not swayed so easily when the defendant is of the monied class.............

She probably thinks she’s doing Obama a favor, helping to cut the deficit by lowering our medicare costs.

[Redleg Duke]

Does New York have a death penalty?

This is a perfect example of where it should be used.

[Dallas59]

Unable to accept reality...Story of our youth today.

Model?

[Diana in Wisconsin]

The perp.

[Frantzie]

Obama wants to treat America’s elderly the same way so what’s the problem?

[Diana in Wisconsin]

The crime scene.

[Frantzie]

Model? Want to look hot in her mugshot? FAIL.

“She probably thinks she’s doing Obama a favor, helping to cut the deficit by lowering our medicare costs.”

ObamaCare on Wheels.

Good point. In a few years time she'll basically have been practicing medicine without a license.

Her passenger and boss, Brian Steele Jr. -- who appeared to be oblivious to the carnage -- bellowed at her that she wrecked his car two weeks ago and lamented that "he has to pay for this now."

Her boss, Steele, was driving at first, but Gerdes demanded to take the wheel because he wasn't going fast enough, police said.

Some boss. He is a loser like her.
