Man Lives 2 Days Stuck In Broken Windshield

Hit-And-Run Victim Eventually Dies In Driver's Garage

FORT WORTH, Texas -- A man who was the victim of a hit-and-run lived at least two days trapped in a broken windshield before dying in the driver's garage in Fort Worth, Texas, police said.

"Maybe we've just redefined inhumanity," a prosecutor in Fort Worth said about the October 2001 incident.

Police arrested a 25-year-old woman -- a nurse's aide -- in the man's hit-and-run death.

Police told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that the victim was trapped in the broken windshield of the car that hit him and begged for help before he finally died of blood loss and shock.

According to a police statement, the woman panicked, and with the man still lodged in the windshield, she drove a few miles to her home, parked in her garage, and ignored his pleas for help until he died. His body was later dumped.

The driver told them she'd been drinking and using drugs when she struck the man, police said.

The woman told police she occasionally went into the garage, apologizing to the victim. The impact had hurled him headfirst through the windshield, his broken legs sticking out onto the hood.

Well she's probably a mom to, so don't be so quick to condemn her. She may of thought of the man as her own son so she should get off on an insanity plea. Sarcasm off "Fry her @ss, she deserves it!"

Surely God will have a special place reserved in hell for this woman. I hope the state will hasten her arrival at this place!

She's an innocent victim of Post-Accident Depression.

Our society has been mocking and denigrating middle class values for many years now. People with a traditionalist personality have been shunted aside in favor of the Survivor type of Machiavellian personality.

Now the results are in. We are creating a people who are more suited for the brutal world of Afghanistan than the orderly life of America as we have known it.

I suppose you could say that she learned the lesson taught so well the past thirty years - life is cheap.

Incomprehensible!

There has to be more to this story.
Surely, this woman was not that cold-hearted and cruel.

I am just totally speechless on this. What the hell was she thinking? I hope to god someone writes a book about her so I can have some way to try and grasp how ANYONE can be such a pathetic, useless, jerk in society. HOW? I just cannot fathom this at all.

The driver told them she'd been drinking and using drugs when she struck the man, police said.

But, but ... using drugs doesn't infringe on other people's freedom, right? She was only hurting herself, right? Right? (/sarcasm)

I have never been so shocked and disgusted by such an abject lack of human compassion. This story is absolutely unbelievable and this woman deserves the absolute harshest punishment Texas can give her.

Have any pictures of the perp? A name? The victim? It is not good whenever the media fails to give out names and/or pictures.

I will check my other news stations in my book marks (I have tv news and newspapers for about all 50 states I read each day - but all my good Texas ones are bookmarked at home). Will post more if I find it!
One good source I have found is: Gebbie Press
