POPSJust Like in the Movies: Car Flies Into House The only individual home in the house was asleep on the couch and was not injured. The passenger was able to walk away from the wreck as well without injury. Only the driver was physically injured with small injuries to report. It is by far the home that has suffered the worst from the ordeal. With a gaping hole torn all the way down the front of the house, the house will be sorely out of commission for some time. Images of the scene show scraps of wood surrounding the Jeep as it sits nicely in the foyer. Art still hangs on the wall along the interior clearly visible from the street. The large home is almost ripped in half by the vehicle.

POPS14 years for man who fled U.S. after fatal crash Russell clutched a rosary and stammered often as he addressed his surviving victims and the relatives of those killed, telling them that during the years he spent on the run, he often attended a church where he lit candles for the victims. "There aren't enough words that could define who your children were, that could define what you've gone through," he said. "I'm sorry; you've been waiting too long to hear that." Survivors and family members of the victims told the court of the grief Russell put them through. "Just say you're sorry," said John Wagner, who was seriously injured. "Accept responsibility and let us go on with our lives." Karen Overacker, whose 22-year-old son, Brandon Clements, was killed, described seeing his body at the morgue, with his legs broken and his face reconstructed with wax and glue. Russell suffered only minor injuries.

POPSCrash victim's Headstone Repossessed This is disgusting! A little bit of publicity would have brought in donations, I am sure. It is just too callous. Some professions know they will have to write off some losses. If they can't deal with that.........get a new business!
