"Mother faces new allegations of DUI"

..o_o My brother has this friend named Devon, and this kid's like 8 years old or something. My mom has always really hated his mother, and now she has even more of a reason to. Look:

"THE TRIBUNE DEMOCRAT
Mother faces new allegations of DUI

BOSWELL - A mother is suspected of leaving her three young boys home alone in a winter storm to go on a drinking binge, a variation on charges filed against her just four months ago.
Laura Laws, 43, of Davidsville, had a blood-alcohol level of 0.3 percent - nearly four times the legal limit - when she was stopped by police earlier this month, authorities said. The charges were filed Thursday before District Judge William Roush of Boswell.
Laws already is awaiting trial on similar counts after police said she left her youngest son in an SUV outside a Conemaugh Township tavern in November while she got drunk.
On March 1, during a heavy snow stown, a neighbor contacted police and said she was concerned about the welfare of Laws' three kids, court records show.
The neighbor told police the boys - ages 8, 9, and 11 - had been home alone all day."

And it goes on from there about how when she returned she found a detective at her house and quickly tried to leave again, and finally stopped in an alley after being chased and told a couple different stories on when she left and who was watching her children.

Devon, her 8 year old son, called my brother yesterday saying that he was leaving for Virginia rigt there and then. Today my mom called the police and told them this, beleving she was fleeing Pennsylvania.

Oh, those poor boys. It's awful what some people will do to their kids... I do't wanna get started on this... I'll never shut up...

Those poor boys! I hope their mother goes to jail for a long time.

That horrible! The mom probably didn't have a good home or responsible parents when she was a young girl and it rubbed off on her. But, it still doesn't mean she didn't have a choice to act like that. She was irresponsible enough to be a horrid mother not worthy to keep her children.
