"Voy says. It's a matter of whether they have the capability, the emotional stability, and the tools to pull themselves out of a criminal justice system that seems to tug them in."

Let's see if Voy allows Judge Mosley's son the capability and emotional stability to pull himself out of criminal justice system. Of will Voy continue to do what Judge Mosley wants.

This case will be the poster child for judicial decisions "in the best interest of the child"

Sunfairy, I'm not sure from where you get these facts or how well you understand the circumstances of this tragic accident.
1. The driver of the vehicle Olivia was riding in had not been drinking. The other driver had a blood alcohol level of .02. While this is not normally considered a DUI for an adult, the consumption of any liquor by a minor will result in arrest.
2. There was no planned drag race. They both left a party and coincidental met on the road. Both drivers exceeded the 25 m.p.h. speed limit and one could not maintain control at a sharp curve. The driver of the second vehicle, was aware of the curve ahead and slowed down accordingly, leaving his vehicle a significant distance from the vehicle ahead which Olivia was riding in. Tragically her driver lost control. Therefore speed was a factor, alcohol was not.
3. The driver of the second vehicle and the two passengers watched in fear, hoping the car ahead of them could correct, but unfortunately could only run to their aid.
4. The driver of the second vehicle (the one with a .02 alcohol level) is certified in search and rescue and proceeded to help Olivia and the other three occupants out of the vehicle, immediately after calling 911. Alcohol was not a factor in this accident, just inexperienced drivers.

I have heard from many sources over the weekend that both of these drivers are devastated by Olivia's death, just as many of her friends are. While the appropriate disciplines should and will be disseminated, no punishment exists that will adequately answer for this loss. Let us not lose sight, that these are young teenagers, newly licensed. The parents must accept their responsibilities as parents. And what of the unsupervised parties which occur every weekend. If alcohol is served or available at these homes, then it appears others may also have to accept responsibility, or better yet make some changes.

Let us just keep in mind that neither of these boys believe they should not be held accountable, and all reports thus far suggest that if allowed to determine their own punishment, their suggestion at this point would be maximum sentences.

Olivia's parents are suffering beyond words, and knowing Olivia there is no doubt that she would not want anyone, including her friends to suffer. If even one life will be saved by this devastation, I can only imagine Olivia would be smiling.

This is the phone call all parents dread. There are no words. These are all great kids striving to grow up too quickly. Parents please, please set stricter boundaries, or check to see the boundaries you have set are being respected. While both drivers may not have been drinking, most of the kids at that party were. This is typical of the "fun" they have every weekend. I know all of these kids and their grief today is tribute to their families and to their character. A tragic accident. This young girl was lovely and my heart goes out to her family.
