Every parent’s fear about their teenagers and college students. Thoughts with the families. Horrible news.

Damn that’s terrible. Is that a treacherous stretch of road?

Female recruiting coordinator driving was also so young. Roads were not wet last night. That road isn’t very curvy.
So sad for all.

That is absolutely heartbreaking.
Prayers to everyone involved, their families and the UGA family.
RIP young man.
ETA: RIP young lady also. (Didn’t realize she also died).

A terrible tragedy. A group of young adults probably coming back from a function of some kind and this happens. My condolences to their families and friends.

Not confirmed, but I've heard Warren is already home. The other staffer is stable but in ICU.
