Mexico City /
The former assistant of Kansas City Chiefs and the coach’s son Andy Reid, Britt Reidwas sentenced to three years in prison, after the incident in which he was driving drunk in 2021, hit a girl.
KCTV reported that it was a long afternoon in court for the niña Ariel Youngas she suffered traumatic brain injuries in that accident that occurred in February of last year.
The girl is only five years old and fell asleep in the courtroom, something that seems to touch the heart of the former Chiefs assistant, as he pleaded guilty.
Since September 12, he declared himself so for driving while intoxicated and causing serious injuries.
It changed his life…
Today the life of the girl Ariel is not in danger, but the accident changed her, changed her present and future.
The court heard a victim impact statement from Ariel’s mother, Felicia Miller, read by the prosecutor. In it, she explained how Ariel’s life changed forever that night.
She now wears glasses, may need leg braces, and is in special education classes because it takes her longer to process information.
The victims were not satisfied with the sentence
“The victims of this crime are outraged that the defendant was not sentenced to the maximum sentence allowed by law. No amount of prison time will be enough to punish the defendant for the pain and suffering he caused this family and the continuing hardships that Ariel will continue to endure for the rest of his life. She will hold. She will strive and prosper. She is strong,” says a statement from the lawyer.
