Tankersley Denies Wrongful Death Allegations in $1 Million Lawsuit

Why can this lady just not take the responsibility that she made a mistake
and while she was driving while intoxicated she killed this young man who
had his whole life ahead of him.

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS JAMIE TANKERSLEY!!!

it would different if she was driving but fact is that she was and because of her negligence......she took someones life, someones child, someones sibling, someones friend away. the least she can freaking do is take responsibility for her horrible mistake. i dont care if she was intoxicated or not. i drove by that accident and from what i saw, theres no way that her truck should of done half the damage that was done to his car. She had to have been flying way above the speed limit to completely crush that car. i pulled over and cried. i used to be a race car driver so im pretty familiar with what kind of damage speed can cause and the crash literally reminded me of the race track. drunk or not, her negligence took someones life away and shes acting like she its no big deal. i hope and pray that she gets the proper punishment and that his family can get what the rightfully deserve from her. GOD BLESS THE VICTIM AND HIS FAMILY!!!!

Sadly this accident has caused a lot of pain to not only a young mans family but to a young women and her family. That being said this town has been real quick to assume Tankersley was all in the wrong. Yes she had consumed alcohol, but was it just a beer or was it a lot. Even though driving under the influence I just that how many of these people judging her have had a beer and then driven home? Probably more have then would admit it. Also with the crash report not released how do we know he wasn't in the wrong as well. I can understand the anger with this whole situation and that a family has to grieve the loss of their child. But a young women has to live with the fact that her possible mistake has taken someone's life and all these family's of these two involved have to read everyone's comments. So before you slam someone think of that.

Not sure how I feel about this. Yes, according to law she was intoxicated and driving, however that did not cause this accident. If the deceased had been driving the speed limit, she would have completed her turn and he would never have gotten close enough to be involved in this collision. Kind of a situation where 2 people were at fault of violating laws that was unfortunate for both drivers.

Doc, I agree with your observations. And, I am not a robot.

I agree with the doctor. They were both at fault, yes she had been drinking so she shouldn't have been driving but by the same token he shouldn't have been driving at a very high rate of speed, as doctor said if he were driving the speed limit he wouldn't have been in the intersection at the same time that she was and there would have been no accident.

There will be no indictments on "intoxication manslaughter" that's my prediction. Any other case the blood alcohol level would be known by morning. Just got to be the right color in San Angelo... hope i"m wrong.
