My question involves criminal law for the state of: Pennsylvania
My question involves a criminal case in Pennsylvania.
My involvement in the case is unique. My cousins 17 year old son along with a 16 year old boy. We're killed in an automobile accident on June 16, 2015. A friend of mine was the defendant. The case was investigated by the Pa. state police and the District Attorney.
Less than a week ago she was found guilty of.
Two counts of involuntary manslaughter,
Two counts endangering the welfare of children,
corruption of minors and selling or furnishing alcohol to minors.
The DA had teens (which were friends of her 17 year old son) testify that over a 6 month she had purchased and allowed them to consume alcohol on her property. On three separate occasions.
On June 15, 2015 her son and several friends had a party at her house. She did not provide nor was she aware that they were consuming alcohol. The beer was purchased by my cousins 17 year old son at a distributor which he had been illegally served on at least 20 occasions prior.
Four of the boys spent the night in the family's basement. They were supposed to go to football practice the following morning. On that next morning my friend and her husband went to work. Their 17
year old son left for a week long sports camp. Upon waking they decided against going to football practice. They instead went upstairs and too a full bottle of rum from the kitchen. They took shots and were posting to Snapchat. One of the boys decided to drink close to half of the bottle. Not long after he got sick and they layed him on the 17 year old sons
bed. They then called his 19 year old sister to come over. She arrived along with the boys father. After several minutes my friend and her husband arrived. They were completely surprised at what had transpired. Several minutes later my cousins son and the other boy who was involved in the accident were able to help the intoxicated individual to his fathers car. Keep in mind this boy is 6 ft. tall and weights 310 pounds.
When the two boys came back in my friend asked them several times if they had been drinking. Each time they answered no. The two of them left for my cousins house. Less than 2 miles from his house. They were involved in a single vehicle accident in which the SUV they were driving was engulfed in flames. The bodies were burnt beyond recognition. They never performed an autopsy on either. But they did take a blood sample from what they believed to be my cousins son. It came back .094.
My concerns are as follows.
The alcohol they consumed that day was taken from my friends kitchen without permission. They also were at work and were not aware these boys were still at their home.
Several witnesses testified that neither of the two boys appeared intoxicated.
There was also a text message between my friends son and my cousins son. My friend had just sent her son a text and was informing him of what had taken place. He in turn text my cousins son about the drinking. His reply was that he was totally sober and had to help carry other boy to the car. This text was not allowed to be used as evidence. Also several weeks prior to the accident. An expert witness for the prosecution stated he was not able to determine who was driving the vehicle. He did determine that my cousins son was texting at the time of the crash. Another expert witness this time for the defense. Stated that the Blood Alcohol Test was most likely tainted and results were unreliable. Due to the traumatic injuries.
I was speaking with my cousins and his wife. They had informed me that a relative of hers had caught their son purchasing alcohol at the distributor where he had many times. They said that they had installed an app on his phone so that they could track him.
Several weeks before the trial I had a discussion with the DA and the a state police officer who had investigated the case. I informed them of what they had told me.
During the trial my cousins wife testified that she had no knowledge of her sons drinking or of his ability to purchase alcohol. After the trial I questioned the relative who had caught him. She posted a message telling me that "Knowing what you and I know. It would be best to keep my mouth shut. These are only a few of my concerns but I feel these are very disturbing.
