43 year old Kecia Whitfield is charged with providing alcohol to a minor and reckless conduct after she reportedly bought liquor for her stepson and his friends, including 16 Garrett Reed.

Reed, a star football plater at Harrison High School, died after crashing into another car later that evening.  The driver of the second car suffered a broken leg.

  • Oh well again...
    Thats nice the kid was a 'star attraction' @ his school in the sports arena....but that doesnt relinquish ANY KIND of responsibility in matters like this!

    The kid should HAVE known better...boozin it irresponsible ...CAN HAVE dire consequences.

    As for the step-mom...to say 'she should have known better' is quite an understatement and MUST be held accountable for THIS disgusting tragedy.

    (Oh but the life and times of living the life of 2XS!!!)
