Drunk Pregnant Mom Crashed into 16 People, Killing 2: Prosecutors
Ойын-сауық
Ashley Marie Monroe, 35, is locked up with a $1 million bond after Michigan law enforcement says she crashed into a group of 16 family members walking to a relative’s house along the side of a road. Monroe, who has four children and is pregnant with her fifth, was caught within minutes of allegedly fleeing the scene. Law&Crime’s Jesse Weber analyzes the 11 felony charges Monroe now faces with anti-drunk driving advocate and attorney Tray Gober.

@@Codacoli Her baby will be born with foetal alcohol syndrome. Her other children may have it if she drank. I raised money for a home for babies born with that condition. It is heartbreaking to see the damage it does. There is a distinct look on the small faces of those children. They constantly cry and people who work with them don't use perfume or scented lotions. Those products cause trauma to the babies. Brain damage is the norm and they will always be prone to alcoholicism. Their futures are grim and it is very difficult to find people willing to adopt them. This woman must receive a very long prison sentence and enter a recovery programme. I didn't touch alcohol when pregnant and I can't imagine drinking and driving.

The Ripple Effect is so real and so sad. She has ruined many, many, lives.
My mother was broadside by a drunk driver in 1965. Her hip was destroyed. She had, unheard of at the time surgery, to reconstruct her hip. She worked as an ER and surgical nurse. Over the remainder of her life, she had fifteen more surgeries on that same hip. She had a lifetime of pain. My mother passed away last year with no ability to walk anymore. For sixty years she suffered constant pain. That drunk driver went on to get two more drunk driving charges and killed two people. When are they going to get tougher on these drunk drivers?

The cops called to rush the ambulance and went to talk to the officer. The wife said she had looked at her hubby and that car had hit my hubby’s. When the cop came back to my hubby, my sweaty told the cop what the wife had done just before. A witness came forward and said the same thing. Both drunk hubby and lying wife were charged.

Hate to hear that, it's all too common. My BIL was killed by a habitual DWI offender and unfortunately the criminals wife was the same and enabled him with insured vehicles to operate even though he had lost his driving privileges for life. He first permanently maimed a couple years ago before he killed my brother in law and he still never did any time in prison for what he did, only probation and of course the time he sat in jail after the tragic incidences, waiting for his wife to post bail. She is a kindergarten teacher and not only let's him get on the road like that but keeps buying him trucks, insuring them and putting them in her name for him to drive. A week after killing my BIL a neighbor seen him out at the store buying a suitcase of beer and driving a brand new truck (newer model) than he hit my BIL with as a pedestrian just mere days before. It's sickening because this woman has kids and grandchildren of her own that share the road with her habitual DWI offender husband and still that doesn't stop him OR her! people like this and their enablers ONLY care about THEMSELVES!!! I hope you're sweet husband is doing better and I'm glad he escaped with his life but it's a shame what that criminal took from him (his career). The criminal that killed our loved one took away a 5yr old boys daddy that day. I say they throw the book at all of them, don't drink anything and drive (I'm a drinker myself) but there are far too many alternatives such as friends or Uber etc. No excuse these days and way too many people and pedestrians on the road compared to even 20yrs ago and people fail to realize this.
Part of the problem is, drunk drivers are let off, with light sentences. Multiple DUI'S are too common, for many people. People are killed and maimed for life, yet our Justice System is failing us. Please vote in Judges that will give proper sentences, that deter even first time offenders. Enough is enough.

She is the female Darrell Brooks. He said, during his interrogation "i bet Erica is going to say I was drunk, blah blah." So we know he was drunk. This lady should be charged with murder. We all make mistakes, and we all should pay for them.

Agreed. She made her bed, now she has to sleep with the consequences. Man, I'd lose my mind if I lost a loved one to someone like this. It's so ridiculously unfair that it's always the drunk driver who lives.
That poor unborn child will most likely have so many health issues throughout their life, mentally and physically. R.I.P. to all affected by this tragedy, and may the critically injured heal.

RIP+ How horrible for everyone.
Life with no parole. She's a selfish, self-centered person and shouldn't be allowed to jeopardize the public. This is not exactly how I wanted to say this but there are rules 🙄
That poor baby has to eat jail food until it’s born now
While I understand the logic behind the virtual appearance, it angers me that she hasn't been hauled into court wearing leg shackles and a waist restraint.
I think they forgot one other charge. Attempted murder of her unborn child.😢
What a smack in the face to the victims and their families to say she’s not guilty
This doesn’t even sound real. There’s no excuse for what this woman did.
I went to high school with her and graduated the same year. I am horrified by this. As a mother myself and as a former resident of Clinton County.
Jfc. I hope those families are receiving proper support. That is despicable. Condolences ❤ This woman needs to be locked up for life. She is a danger to society. Gross.
What is it with michigan and drunk drivers?! We just had a terrible loss in our community from a drunk driver crashing into the swan creek boat club in michigan a few weeks ago. Just awful.

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Praying for all the victims and survivors. I hope she gets life for every life she selfishly took away.
This breaks my heart. There will be no happy people at the end of this.
She should also be charged for endangering her unborn child.
She should also be charged with endangerment of her child in her womb
Again why is alcohol legal ?

I know right, it’s so much worse than so many illegal street drugs yet it’s fully ingrained in our culture that it’s normal. It causes so much domestic violence in addition to car crashes…
those poor people were just enjoyiing being with family and this happened. horrible. Lots of love to the family!
It's not a bad day... It's a bad person who made bad decisions. Baby is probably doomed suffering from drugs and alcohol. Child endangerment for sure. Prayers to those who "survive" this.
Drunk while pregnant how much does she really care about her baby? ridiculous
Love Crown Royal but it doesn’t leave the house, nor do I after having some 👍🏼

True That!
They forgot to charge her for hurting her unborn child with alcohol while drinking. 🤬
Life in prison
if she was drunk with her 5th child pregnancy was she drinking with the first 4 times she was pregnant with her other 4 kids

Even if it was a one-off, which I agree with you that would be pretty shocking, one drinking episode, especially with this level of blood alcohol, could cause fetal alcohol syndrome
Add another count of child endangerment for being pregnant and drunk! Wtf 😮
So sorry for the families of the people who died. I hope she gets life she knew she had been drinking so should not have been driving

Not only that, drinking while pregnant too.
Could she be more disgusting and selfish !?! My heart hurts for the victims and their loved ones. 😢
I was a passenger in a car t boned by a drunk driver. He pushed us onto the sidewalk. Cops were in traffic behind us and I remember seeing them open his door and a cascade of beer cans fell out.
I'm smelling 45 to life.
Wow...tragic. And she thought she was depressed before? I hope she likes the color orange. And her poor kids. Sad for everyone.
She's pregnant and drunk? Selfish didn't think of the consequence of her actions now her kids are motherless and praying her 1yr old is ok and the one she's carrying😢😢😢

I wouldn't call her a mom just someone who is popping out children and endangering them and ruining their lives. She's already poisoned that poor baby inside of her.
Horrible situation for all involved. Condolances to all the families in this tragic accident.
Imo nothing else needs to be said .. shes killed and effecting the pregnancy of her own unborn child plus so so many more. She has no business getting bail. And as for sentencing guess thats up to the state and vuctims family

I never had an accident but when you wake up the next day hating yourself for rolling the dice, and knowing that alcohol dissolves your judgement, I needed to say after the first time "I'm never having my car around when I go somewhere I'll drink". And I never did. Quit completely 5 years ago, it was the only solution to something that changes how you think 😢
So tragic .if you drink you should get a uber.

And use birth control. Get an implant or IUD, since drunks can't be relied to remember things like regular medications or to glove up.

This isn't a case of one too many, she's a straight up functioning alcoholic that finally caught up to her.
Why do people have to die before the legal system takes drunk driving seriously? The difference between a drunk driver who gets home safely and one who kills people is that the former was very, very lucky.
what a deeply selfish woman. doesn’t give a care about her children or the community around her. devastating for her family and the victims and their families.
Not only that but there are men out there who sleep with that and get it pregnant 5 times.....i dont get it
