12-year-old Hunter Cope lost his life in a deadly pedestrian accident when he was walking to school. One mother’s son witnessed the DUI-related crash and is still traumatized by the accident to the point where they had to move away from the area.
The woman who caused the accident and drove drunk, Kelley Permenter, is now facing charges such as DUI and manslaughter. Families in the area have been drastically impacted by the death and say that she should be put in prison to pay for her crimes. On Monday, Permenter has another court hearing.
