Wolfman..it is disappointing when you are let down by your friends. Try and forgive them and try to live a good life. It is sometimes hard to set your own path and not follow the crowd, but deep down you will be admired by your peers for standing up for what is right and eventually they will want to be like you.

I want to start by saying stop sterotyping my schoolmates. You don't know us.

I know at least three of these kids and I have to say that I'm very disappointed in them. I couldn't believe it when I opened up the paper to the front page this morning and saw what they did. I also can't believe that last year one of those five kids told me they didn't drink. Reading about all this has really made me angry.

I guess I am just and "old fogey" but I (and my husband) do not drink any alcoholic beverages. We always tried our best to set a good example when our daughter was growing up. It is hard for me to understand why drinking alcoholic beverages is so important. People should try to live a good life and set a good example for others, especially younger impressionable children.

Bloke, feel free to comment, but don't make heartless and ignorant statements about people you know nothing about on a personal level.

hey bloke how many wakefield kids do you know. how much about wakefield do you know outside of this twisted headlines. go ahead and believe everything you read, if you notice- it changes from time to time. Once again, i am a wakefielder driving a car that is 15 years old and cant afford the new muffler to pass inspection right now. i am one of many who work for a lot fo what they get, and if we cant work for it our single parent blows half of their miniscule savings out of love and neccesity. Shut your mouth and crawl back in your hole.

Poor kids, after they make bail they'll probably be grounded from Daddy's Range Rover all weekend. What a shame.

mrcrosby,Excellent idea - blaming the victim! Let's start doing that for all crime victims and then we can do away with the police, the courts, the prosecutors, the prisons, parole and probation officers! Think about how much money we'll save. You are an absolute moron!

"trunkmonkee.....exactly how are these kids responsible for the death of their friend? nobody forced alcohol on Sadiki, nobody forced him to get in the car w/ Chris."

Exactly the same way you are held accountable if you supply alcohol to a minor. They may be minors themselves but the fact they had the alcohol Sadiki consumed maked them accessories. " AND let's not forget that the cause of the accident was SPEED, not alcohol. Are you really paying attention to the facts here or just looking for a place to make outrageous comments?"

Why YES I am paying attention to the facts. you are correct speed was a factor but think about the afffects of alchohol, they dull your senses therefore making you think you can handle a faster speed than you can. The speed is directly realted to the alchohol.

I for one am thrilled when I heard the teens were charged and arrested!! Especially the one that picked up the teen before calling for help. I think the parents of the teen who had the party should also be charged w/whatever will fit. Yes, the young man killed was guilty, and he's paying the ultimate price w/out parole or lawyers to postpone his trial. His buddies should also have to face the consequences! That's only fair! I NEVER drank and drove. I have a personality that doesn't require me to drink to have fun and be socialable. I'm 42...have many aquantances who are parents of teens who still can't have a social gathering w/out getting wasted! I don't go to those gaterhings. Teach by example parents!!!
