Anyone see 20/20 ?? A "Laura Bush" style dilemma..
Edited on Sat Apr-24-04 04:02 PM by SoCalDem
The young woman was driving, there was a car crash..her boyfriend and a young kid were killed in the accident.. she qualified for the Olympics, but the family of the kid wants her barred from going, and the Olympic committee has not decided yet.. The big "issue" last night was "should she" be allowed?? Laura Bush is first lady and she killed someone..

The 27-year-old Crow has spent two decades in pools, working for a chance to represent the United States at the Olympic Games. After failing to make the team in 2000, she put everything she had into training for a chance to compete in the Athens games in 2004.

Her extraordinary efforts paid off. She made the 2004 Olympic team, but she may never make it to Athens this summer because of her role in a car crash that killed two people — one the man she loved, the other a young boy.

WHAT DO
YOU THINK?



This is not a scientific survey.

1. The parents are seeking vengeance
Crowe is guilty of nothing more than thinking her boyfriends SUV made her invicible to snowy roads.

It just seems to me that the parents want this woman's life just as destroyed as their's are. I guess being responsible for the death of the man you love isn't enough for them.
