white cat down......AGAIN!

[GeorgeInDallas]

I'm guessing she either fell asleep, or hit the gas instead of the brakes...

I guess the cops could charge her with reckless driving? What else??

Stuff can be replaced...

Don't mean to be disagreeable, but I don't think she can be charged with wreckless driving now.

OK, 14 hours after the    leave, Bonnie decides to tell me about the "male" eye witness that got out of the truck and walked away never to be seen again...........

Funny I never knew about that, or she never she (driver) never mentioned him to the cops.      
I will be making a phone call in the morning to Burleson's finest..........  Not that they would ever question any wrong doing.......

Yep, Bonnie just told me that he got out of the passenger side of the vehicle and walked down the sidewalk never to be seen again........  wow.

The plot thickens.

[pipeliner1978]

So, just got off the phone with the driver's boss.  I asked him how it all happened, what was her story.  He said she was questioned by their EHA people.  I asked him if she mentioned the 2nd witness.......you know the male passenger that out of your company truck and ran off....
He had no idea there was another person.........no one did.  Not me, her company, the cops, no one was told that by her.  The cops asked too......

[Slag]

Either she was bringing home another dude from work and they didn't want his name on the police report(hell of a way to get caught cheating), or he had a warrant. I vote warrant.

either way, her company, and the  were withheld the info.  Is there a law against this?  Leaving an accident scene and lying to the police about who was involved and witnessed?

[Slag]

Yes and no. There really is no way to prosecute her, and she was not under oath. The dude that left had no obligation to stay. He was basically a witness. He doesn't have to say anything at all.

I never saw him.  Bonnie was by our front door ironing me a shirt for work (yep, they still exist) and heard the crash.  She ran outside to see wtf happened and a dude was getting out of the truck and walked away.  She asked the driver if she was ok and then ran back inside the house to get me.  I never saw him, and noone mentioned him, even after the cops asked.  Bonnie was inside getting the kids ready for school, she didn't tell me til last night.

is that not withholding evidence from the police.  Is it legal to withhold evidence and lie to the investigating officer?

Right-O there is. In fact I think it's considered a felony!

[Slag]

Basically she will say that she did not remember him being there. The wreck was a traumatic experience, and she really doesn't remember all of the details. You do not have to tell the police squat.

[Slag]

If she had left, then it would be a different story. There are a few charges she could be hit with. If there were injuries, then she could be hit with failure to render aid.

There was no ambulance/EMT sent, she refused treatment, because "she was completely fine" by her words.
