Jacquoi Saburido

In 2003, Jacquoi Saburido appeared on the Oprah show in 2003 to tell her horrific story. Jacquoi was an only child whom lived the teenage life, she had plans of taking over her father's manufacturing business and then moved to Texas. After one night while coming home from a friends, Jacquoi was in a serious accident. A senior in high school was driving home at 4am after way to much to drink drifted into the center lane and then crashed into Jacquoi. Jacquoi was then burned alive, as 2 others in the car were killed, flames surrounded her in the car therefore being trapped. The fire continued on and melted Jaquoi's face, she was left with 3rd degree burns covering about 60% of her body. He man whom caused this terrible accident was then charged with intoxication manslaughter, he will serve 7 years in prison with a $20,000 fine. Jacquoi was unconsious for 10 months, has had 50 sergeries and has many more to come. Her life is nt over, but had to go through a huge change just due to one indivduals stupid choice. Her life will never be the same and the man that caused this only has to serve 7 years in prison? This episode raised a lot of awareness, as people always knew drinking an driving was bad but now when you actually see what it can do to someone you should really think a lot harder and think about what you're doing. Even though one may think that they are able to drive if they have consumed alcohol they are not alright to drive! Someone has to step in and let them no that they will not be driving and that individual has to gain more responsibility.
