As 55-year-old Maria Lucaj lay dying in the hospital, her family was outraged to find out the teen driver who ran over their grandmother was tweeting about her holiday leftovers the day after the accident.

Nineteen-year-old Ashley Viviana Davios was driving her new Ford Focus when she struck Lucaj in the Bronx at around six at night on the eve of Thanksgiving this year. Davios claims she didn't see Lucaj crossing at a crosswalk, reports the New York Post, which also notes that Lucaj had the right of way according to the police. Davios stayed at the scene of the accident and did not appear intoxicated.

Lucaj was walking home from work and was steps away from her front door when she was hit. She suffered a critical head injury and would die four days later.

After Thanksgiving Davios tweeted out "All I really need right now is to clear my head and find peace of mind," the Post reports, followed by a picture of her Thanksgiving leftovers.

A Ford Focus? They'll throw the book at her. You need to be driving a nicer car than that if you want to get away with killing people. If she had been driving say a F-350, it might be OK.

Of course the family is outraged, they just lost a relative to this person, her tweet is completely beside the point. She would be vilified for doing anything other than crying about it nonstop.

Per her first tweet, she's quite upset and is trying to work through it on her own terms, in this case that means trying to ignore it and go on with the holiday. That is an incredibly terrible article, it reads more like an opinionated blog post than actual journalism.

to be outraged over this is silly if not fucking idiotic.

Would this be vehicular manslaughter? How is it she can afford to be out of jail pending bond? BTW, I didn't read anything other than what the OP posted.

It shows that she's more concerned with her own "peace of mind" over that of the rest of her family. Yeah, yeah, everyone copes with stress differently, but that includes sociopaths.

Maybe instead of tweets that say basically say me...me...me...me...me, how about post something sympathetic towards family.

Also take down that pic and maybe replace with flower. It smacks of "yeah I killed someone but I'm still hot"
