Drunk driver plows into home, wants $1,000 to find missing kids
The driver of the 1998 Honda Accord crawled out of the car door after plowing into a home at 2 a.m. and said to the homeowner, "If you give me $1,000, I'll help you find your kids." He turned down her offer. (TampaBay.com)
at THAT, my friends, is the definition of chutzpah.

A parked car, two fences, a bunch of mailboxes, and a house. That's worth at least 50,000 points in the Death Race!

Tell, you what. I'll let you pay for the damage you've done to my house in exchange for me not pressing charges against your stupid ass.

Do you think she could find Jimmy Hoffa for five grand?
I'll admit to there were times when I was surprised to wake up in my own bed after a night out and that the car had no dents in it. This is really a case where a license should be pulled for two or three years.
As for the guy needing a home, let them take over where the broad lives. Let her find somewhere to live when she gets out of the slammer.

Fortunately for the driver, he was too busy trying to find his kids. Otherwise, she might have been killed in the wreck, almost as if she had hit a bunch of fists and a knife drawer as she drove through the house.

Maybe she was just planning ahead for her bail bond.
Right on, KDP! But I think that when she gets out of jail, she should just have to live in the house she destroyed, without any repairs on it.
