- A neighbor's doorbell camera captured an SUV as it sped down the road and toward a boat club where a child's birthday party was taking place.
The sheriff says two children were killed at the scene. An 8-year-old girl and a 5-year-old boy, who were siblings.
In addition, 15 victims received first aid, including adults and young children. Nine of those were transported with serious, life-threatening injuries to area hospitals.

Should get life in prison without parole .
should get a fair trial from a jury of peers before sentencing, that's how things go in america, regardless of guilt, they are to be presumed innocent until proven guilty, in that process we determine guilt and culpability.
a vehicle veering off like this because alcohol is completely different from a vehicle that veers like this because the driver is exhausted,say from being overworked and having no choice to work or lose their job possibly destroying their life, they don't deserve the same punishment, we aren't savages,do try not to act like it by instantly condemning people hm?
the same incident can occur from thousands of things, i bet you'll hope people are more tolerant and understanding and patient than you if you ever end up looking bad on tv.
@@bloodlove93 They already were guilty! They were freaking drunk unless you think drunk driving is legal by law!
@@bloodlove93unless the suspect carried the act out in front of dozens of witnesses. There’s nothing that can justify these actions, and life in prison is too little too late anyway.
@@bloodlove93I’m not sure a person’s job would be comparable to the lives of two children. Regardless, I believe in our justice system too, but leaving a bar wasted and plowing into a child’s birthday party deserves no mercy
vehicular manslaughter isn’t life sentence normally; but for her it would be base off her age because I saw local Facebook groups say the driver is 66 years old. It’s an 15 year sentence because it’s also an DUI.
Possibly the worst thing to happen to a parent.
Did I hear correctly?! They were brother and sister, too? Omg how devastating!!! 😢
the woman is 66 yrs old and she should be charged just like anyone else who drives drunk. I pray the court doesn't put her age into sentencing and feel bad for her because those innocent children who passed will never have 66 yrs . Full accountability on her charges hopefully
They won’t, this is too outrageous for her to get off easy. At least that’s what I’m telling myself.
She’s 66 not 86 why would they care about her age?
Exactly how i feel
Age is never an issue .
They didn't do anything to that lady that killed four family members in San Francisco at a bus stop.
Life without parole is what she should get. She shouldn't be able to walk around free since the kids can't
It would be life with the possibility of parole base on her age. In reality it an 15 year sentence, but if she 66, that make her 81 when she gets out.
@@awilhammer thats not based on age thats just the law, gal.
Sadly, there are never any consequences, or they plead to a smaller offense with just a fine to pay 😕 DWI is just a mistameter 😡
why wont people stop freaking drinking and driving
The laws in this country are not enforced on criminals
Because theirs no consequences anymore.
See both comments above
They never think that the worst case scenario will happen to them.
I know right! Why can't they get a cab, Uber, or Lyft? Or why can't they stay home and drink? There's no law against being passed out drunk on your living floor or backyard. The nerve of people.
My heart is Broken for those parents😪😪😪
Yes😢😢😢
Drinking and driving is not an accident...its a decision...did she know any of these people
Alcoholism is not a decision, its an illness. But this is America and any mental illness is considered a crime. So whether its a decision or not is irrelevant.
Being a drunk is a decision.
Stop giving these sick people an excuse.
By definition, alcoholism is technically a disease of the mind, which is mental illness. Alcoholics literally go through physical symptoms if they don't drink, some even die and that's why some treatments will not consider quitting cold turkey because the patient could die @@trinketbox4171
Alcoholism is quite literally mental illness. It's not as simple as making a conscious decision to have a drink. In fact one could argue, that an alcoholic might not even be making that decision consciously, but rather subconsciously, as it's something they have habitually done for a while (perhaps not every case mind you)
Not excusing what happened. I believe she should be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
My mother was an alcoholic, she made that decision everyday. Never accepted help. SHE made that choice
@@pasques It's a choice/decision to participate in drinking. An illness that a person has no choice in is something like cancer.
This is beyond tragic. So much unnecessary loss and suffering at the hands of a drunk who probably walked away with minor injuries. Prayers and condolences to all those affected. 💔🕊🕊
We are not strict enough on drunk driving. I'm sure we're going to find out that this is not her first, fifth or even 10th drunk driving charge, but no one gets any prison until they kill someone. Now two children are dead and many more injured. This woman should never see anything but the inside of a prison cell for the rest of her life. For anyone else that drives drunk, you do it ONCE, you lose your license for LIFE!
Do you really think that not having a driving license would stop anyone from drinking and driving?
How about you mind ya own business?
I doubt it would be possible to prevent this from happening. If an idiot drives drunk, then not having a license won't stop them.
The problem is that the people who do it don't care. They need to be somewhere, and that's all that matters to them.
No amount of car accident videos/adverts, classes, newsletters, or warnings at all will prevent an inconsiderate AH to not drive under the influence or speed.
My sweet little granddaughter went to a birthday party yesterday. She was so happy. This absolutely brings tears to my eyes. Drinking and driving is a choice this 66 year old made that ruined more lives than her own.
And having kids is a choice 😑
This makes me want to vomit in my mouth. This is beyond heartbreaking.
Rest in peace little ones. Mercy for family, friends and responders.
You said it best.. 😢
Amen❤❤❤
Gross
Drunk Driving is not a joke and judges need to start giving out stiffer penalties 😠 stop giving them probation and dismissing OWI charges 😠
Can you give me any evidence that this had anything to do with drunk driving?
@@hellinterface6721 the police that just did the news conference said she was a 66 year-old woman and she was arrested for being intoxicated
@hellinterface6721 6721...listen to the video...the officer said she had been arrested for DUI....not suspected DUI
You that stupid. Me says yes. You are an idiot. @@hellinterface6721
God take that family in his arms😭😭 God Bless those Angels😩
God doesn’t exist. If a god existed and was worthy of being praised, they wouldn’t allow children and animals to suffer and die every single minute of every single day. That’s that following hitler because you claim the horrific things he orchestrated were all for an unknown good. It takes a truly sick mind to believe that.
You can thank your god for every horrific death.
This is so sad. Vehicular man slaughter and drunk driving😢 Condoleces to the family amd friends of these beautiful children. 2:23
She belongs UNDER the jail for all eternity. This is DISGUSTING!!!! RIP sweet angels
She looked like she crashed into that building on purpose…
It almost looks like she drove in there intentionally.
I'm glad I stopped drinking
I'm SOOO glad I never got behind the wheel when I did go out. I always got the bartender to call me a cab or had a friend to pick me up.
Congrats. I don't drink but all my friends and family know they can call me any time of the day or night for a ride home and some have. I always remind on FB post and texts before big events and holidays that they can call me for a ride. Drinking and driving accidents are 100% preventable.
I'm glad I never had kids.
I don't drink either
Me too, I stopped drinking about 4 years ago.
Thanks to AA I’m about to celebrate 18 years of sobriety!
I notice that the drunk driver always survive these deadly crashes.
Krazy isn't it ? Smh I was thinking the same thing, walk out with barely a scratch 🤨
They don't you liar.
@@KrazyHorse966 - It's been said that they typically survive because their body stays loose and they tense up during the impact.
@@mzturtle7673 I can definitely see that being the case.
She willingly and knowingly drove drunk. That is forethought.
Two counts of first degree murder, thirteen accounts of attempted first degree murder, and fifteen counts of felonious assault.
Life sentence with no chance of release.
Seeing the video, it appears to be intentional.
She may have been drunk but, she was aiming for this building she targeted it.
Guess we'll find out. I kinda don't think so because how would she know she would do that kind of damage to people? Did she intentionally do this because there were people inside or did she just wanted to smash into it like a suicide commando?
@@pinkfreud62 She used to be in a position of leadership at the boat club and lives a few doors down. It's possible she was disgruntled with them
Have you seen the video of her driving? She literally had to go down an entire driveway. This was not an accident. In no way shape or form.
@@SkarlettesMomma
Probably watching too much Nascar 😂
@@pinkfreud62 former employee of boat club! She certainly knew what building she was heading towards at a high rate of speed!!!
Boat Club member Marshella Chidester drove 400 feet PAST her house to crash into that building. She drove OFF the road into the parking lot to get a straight shot at the building right between 2 telephone poles. Intentional??????
That's what I believe too. There's no such thing as coincidence and there are way too many here. The speed is very telling. I'm wondering if she got a phone call or email she never saw coming and then this?
@@DaYooperRev If you look on Google maps, you can see the 2 telephone poles she threaded between ... ONLY doing that allows a car to drive into the center of that building at speed. It was a freak coincidence of bad luck, or PRE-Planned terrorism. The fact that the road was VERY familiar to her, I'm leaning heavily toward preplanned attack.
Marshella...i know😞
This is very heart wrenching, to lose two of your children instantly like that is too much for any family to handle.
This hurts. Lord have mercy. May perpetual light shine on them and may their little souls rest in peace.
The lady her lost both her children she actually is in critical condition also her other son is in critical condition
THAT 66 YR OLD WOMAN JUST SCREWED UP SEVERAL PEOPLES LIVES FOREVER!! THOS PARENTS WILL HAVE A HARD TIME DEALING FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES.....I HOPE THEY HAVE THE STRENGTH NEEDED TO ENDURE THIS
What does she look like?
New euphemism
😢😢
I hope you gain the strength to trust your words more than the caps lock key.
So sad andceven worse it was siblings omg the poor mom to loose both her small kids at once damm my heart akes for her!!
The mother and another of her children are in ICU fighting for their lives
This looks intentional.
It was not, the lady is a nice person I make her lunch almost every day. It’s a sad situation and this unfortunately is something she will have to live with the rest of her life. My thoughts are with all parties involved. Very devastating thing to happen in this town.
She used to be the commodore of the club. She accelerated towards the building. Looks intentional to me too
What's her name and why hasn't it been released??
@@tq644 her name is being posted allover 😂
@@kelseysalatino598 It's not nice to drive drunk and kill people
When I clicked on this story I thought it might have been some sort of accident or medical event. Upon seeing the video , that looks completely intentional.
To know her husband bought their house right by the boat club to "avoid this" is very telling that this was her stance: i can drink and drive. 😡 Hope she gets the book thrown at her! My prayers are with the families of the survivors and everyone there who witnessed this crime.
Hard to believe this wasn't intentional! No accidental slip of foot off brake, no actual road to be on! It looks like a targeted situation!
DUIs need to bring bigger changers, there are multiple offenders who get multiple DUI’s in America and still they end up driving drunk again. How st*pid these people Are. So angering!
Another issue is that many people will drive without a license
Guilty as charged life in prison she made a decision she must suffer the consequences
Drunk? Sure. But this looks intentional and not accidental. How do you accelerate, in a straight line, at that speed, across that distance while drunk? On a gravel road? That doesn't feel accidental to me.
Thoughts and prayers to the family of those lost and all of those who were injured. Absolutely terrible.
That’s what I’m wondering if she knew the family in anyway
The video shows intention.
Accelerated direction.
She was old and drunk. Old people often become disoriented and mistake the gas for the brake. She could have been unfit to drive without factoring in the alcohol.
@@slylockfox85 did u not watch how far she traveled high speed
@@slylockfox85 I wouldn’t be surprised if she was due for renewing her license and doing checkup but honestly she went super fast in a straight line for awhile
She used that car like a weapon & murdered & hurt others
This is horrifying. I am so sorry for there loss.😢😢😢😢 Lord have mercy.
Why no picture of the suspect
They are doing everything in their power to protect the assailant. I hope someone who knows her speaks out.
Protecting the suspect, happens more often than you think.
@@trinketbox4171 Laws vary from state to state.. I understand that. Please do not be upset because my state would show the drunk as well as the children murdered.
And maybe I am in the wrong. I can go to the Michigan arrest page and get all of her information.
edit - I did find her mugshot and full name.
@@nubatman Ok, so who is she ????
@@mrbill8542 Michigan dot arrest dot gov . She's on the first page.
Was she mad at them....how horrible
She was removed from her position as commodore at the club.
She also backed into a truck and tree with enough force to shove the truck back several feet knocking down a fence just before driving Into the club, the Monroe news has pictures of the truck she slammed into
She needs to go to prison for the rest of her life and let her sit and think in her cell everyday what she have did!😡
This is why i pray for protection everywhere i go, and i remind my children to pray also, so sad
Why hasn't she been identified? Why are they hiding her? The need to let us see her!
This is so heartbreaking, my deepest sympathy to the family 🙏
Sending up prayer's for all affected by this terrible tragedy
Jesus that’s horrible. Hope she rots in jail for the rest of her miserable life
There are no words! My most heartfelt condolences to the parents and this community … ❤🙏
My heart goes out to their family. 💔
So sad.
Ugh. As a father to 3 children around the same ages as these children, my heart goes out to the parents. I can’t even imagine their world right now
Wow, RIP
So heartbreaking
All my prayers sent to everyone affected by this devastating tragedy 🙏
Looks like a cover up. Why not release the identity of the murderer??
My deepest and most sincere condolences to the family of these lost angels, healing prayers to all.
The cop who is announcing, has a good heart. Now a days, even indian news readers don't have the same. Humanity is still breathing, at least in the west.
What on earth caused you to bring Indian news readers into this???
if those were my kids, she wouldn't have made it to cuffs
Amen
2 counts of murder 1 and how many ever people were in the building that’s how many counts of attempted murder! She aimed for this home she knew what she was doing. Evil drunk
Reminds me of a case in my town.
In early 1995, two well renowned people at my local bar were overserved, allowed to drive, and two other people lost their lives on the road when they drove.
The bar was shuttered soon after.
Defense will probably blame mechanical failure of the car or medical emergency (not alcohol) responsible for the accident
Yes , if she is white , elite , and/or " connected and protected " . Different rules for different people . Some in the comments section need to stop pretending otherwise .
@christophermaulden733 People just dont want to accept that reality.
@peacenow42 You can read my mind and thoughts ? No , you cannot . My thoughts and genuine prayers are for the victims , their families , and for the Lady that crashed into the building , and her loved ones . I also pray for those first responders that responded to the scene , as well as the witnesses . I also pray for the Medical staff . My comment was in response to the news coverage and the police NOT releasing the drivers name and protecting her , which is NOT standard and everyone in this comment section knows it . Very often they release the photo of the person , their name , and their age , and Police body camera of the arrest . And criminal history . Stop pretending otherwise . The
Police and media are treating this person differently because of the people involved and their status . One more thing , I am NOT the individual that drove drunk and/or on illicit and illegal drugs and crashed into a building killing two children and injuring many others . You haven't said anything about the person that caused the accident , and yet you make negative comments towards me because I have pointed out the obvious that they have treated the Lady differently than they treat other in similar situations . Look deeply into your inconsistencies , your different rules for different people , and examine your soul , conscience , mind , and heart . In my area they put the pictures in the Newspaper of those that have been convicted of DWI/DUI after their trial and list their punishment etc. - guess the one's that are never listed - the VIP's , the " connected and protected " , the different rules for different people crowd , the elite . 😉
With all those real victims and two who are PLAYING VICTIM in this post. Good save your sorry arses Chris and Mad
brother and sister rest with god prayers to family members and was it worth it lady drinking
Are there not laws that the drinking establishment is to cut off the person when they have had too much and discourage them from driving?
The bar she was in was shut down by police. They r investigating. It was on the news conference
@@LindaMarie6224 I get that. I just don't know if there is such a law . Thank you.
In Illinois they are Dram Shop laws prohibiting sales to people that are already intoxicated. It’s sometimes difficult to judge if the person was drinking in multiple establishments.
@@feliciadwyer4735 Okay, Thank you.
Heartbreaking 💔
Brother and sister, too? Lord, help this family 😢😢😢
The cop getting choked up having to do the press conference. You know what they seen was horrible. As a mom i cannot imagine the heartbreak and horror the parents felt. 💔
Oh my!!! My heart breaks for the Parents! Just a horrible tragedy! Bless everyone that was there!!!
My God wrap your arms around these families 😢😢.
How incredibly sad.
This lady caused multiple families to be in pain and grief😢
She’s out on bail! Unbelievable!!! 😡
That’s horrible as ever, the officer wanted to cry so bad. I hate irresponsible adults.
So tragic, cant imagine the grief of the parents/families at the scene seeing your child under a vehicle in an instant where they were celebrating. How drunk do you have to be to not see a whole building not even slowing down. I cant pass judgement, i have drove buzzed many times in my youth thinking i could tell if i was too wasted, luckily never had any incidents. I cant imagine the guilt this lady will feel for the rest of her life.
Terrible just terrible loss and not necessary. Never release her from jail.
Dang! Was it intentional? Prayers and condolences
Life in prison without the parole
Her name is Marshella Chidester. She worked at the boat club and had a daily bar tab there. She was headed there to drink again
She should know better...at HER AGE 🙄
2 life sentences to run concurrent to ensure she never sees freedom again. 😢 Prayers for all involved 🙏
wtf! Horrible! More than 2 kids died... the partents of those 2 siblings died too... from grief. Life ended for that family and just about ended for everyone close to them.
Drunk driving should be punished by jail time and permanent suspension of license in every situation.
😢wow prayers for the families involved
Reminds me of a similar incident in my town.
In early 1995, two well renowned people at my local bar were knowingly over served and then got into a crash which killed two other people.
The bar was shuttered soon after.
💔💔🙏🏽🙏🏽Deepest condolences to the siblings’ loved ones.
OMG rest in peace little angels. 😢
Life can truly change within a blink of an eye. Stay prayed up
So sad. I hope this woman rots in prison and has enough of a conscience to feel horrible about what she did. Prayers for the families and all involved that were affected by this.
This is so sad, gosh, a little birthday party. RIP to the little angels and may God help console the family members and heal the injured. She was speeding up toward the building and drunk. At her age she certainly should’ve known better.
Much damage to the pavilion???
Sounds like damages of lives are more important than a building that can be replaced not the loss of lives
WOW.........Heart breaking!
That poor deputy could hardly deliver the heartbreaking news during the press conference 💔💔
Prayers for every single person effected by this awful, preventable incident. 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 💕💞💕💞💕💞
Prayers to any person ever effect by driving under the influence. Its not a joke one bit. & is a million percent preventable! 🤬
Prayers to any1 ever effect 🙏 💞
So so sad and so unforgivable for this disgusting drunk driver
So sad , RIP KIDS & condolences to the families….
Her attorney is trying to say shes never been in trouble before, bc she was never caught yet!!HER OWN FAMILY AND FRIENDS are saying she has a problem!!
I hope the police take into consideration that right at the end she avoided the telephone pole..so she couldn't have been that drunk
I don’t understand what’s so hard about staying home if you want to drink… plus almost everywhere offers Uber or Lyft. It’s just pure selfishness
Yep,the usual suspect,hope she doesn't get a slap on the ristlife sentence 💯💯💯💯
My prayers are with everyone
Why Is Alcohol Legal ?
$$$
Greed is a terrible thing.
Why are all drugs legal? All are bad, no matter what they are.
My heart breaks for all the incurred and lost lifes gone forever. 💔 so very sorry
God bless all involved this is so sad!
Horrible!! Prayers ❤❤
What a tragedy 😢 ! Please help if you can🙏🙏🙏🙏
How does one go on after losing two babies 😢 Lord please comfort this grieving family, in the name of Jesus amen.
as with guns & crime and the attempt to ban them i do believe its now time to take alcohol & cars off the roads & shelfs, ban all cars & alcohol!
The poor parents of those precious babies my heart breaks for them ,once again another selfish human gets in a car drunk and it’s innocent people who suffer
Just awful, I feel for the family🙏🙏😢😢😢
