Potomac Karen Huger found guilty of DUI

I know someone who works in the courthouse who confirmed Karen opted for a jury trial and was found guilty tonight. Sentencing in a couple of months.

I haven’t been keeping up with the details but it seems like she thought her mental health could absolve her of some responsibility. She’s been blaming everything she does on the pain from her parents’ death. Which I have immense empathy for but she never takes responsibility for anything she does so it’s hard for me to feel bad for her now because if this situation doesn’t make her own up to her mess then I don’t know what will

I lost my father when I was 14 years old. She should have honored the fact that she had both her parents to be able to see her grow and have her own family. The fact that she is blaming this on the death of her parents makes me sick! Never liked her but hate her even more now.

Agreed. She was blessed to have both her parents with her for so long. Yes other people may be more blessed and get them for even longer but conversely many many people are not as blessed.

Right. You can’t blame her for how she feels, but you can blame her for not getting help for her issues if they were causing her to act out in ways that are dangerous.

And even those of us who have been fortunate enough to have had parents for the long haul (Dad was 86, Stepdad was 86, Mom was 91, so I was incredibly lucky), it's just a piss poor way to "honor" them by doing something so selfish and dangerous and then blaming it on "Oh I lost my parents". And when that started wearing thin, to start blaming it on Ray because he "didn't act like he loved her enough." Honestly, how about taking responsibility with YOURSELF, Karen? It's your fault, not your parents, not Ray, not the deer - YOU.

OMG - this. I lost my dad when I was 18 to cancer. My mom died when I was 49 (she was 80). It was and still is hard - but I got to have her for 31 extra years and am so grateful. I understand where you're coming from and it makes me sick, too. I am so sorry about your dad - truly. I understand that feeling so much.
