They were innocents.
Many can't grasp the why of the accident that took best friends Kristi Blevin and Marinda Perry without warning. At the Louisa Wendy's where Kristi worked and Miranda often visited, the manager showed us dozens of myspace.com entries -- friends remembering two outstanding high school juniors with so much promise ahead.
At a Lawrence County School System press conference, school administrators explained the challenge of dealing with the overwhelming grief. More than 200 family and friends gathered at the school library Wednesday night to mourn. The Kentucky Crisis Response Team continued to offer emotional triage.
Kristi's 11 year old sister Shelby Blevins is hospitalized in good condition. James Preece, the driver of the other car, remains in critical condition.
