A woman who owned a daycare center, was conducting a business meeting with a local business owner regarding her attempt to purchase another daycare center.  After work they met at a local bar and discussed terms of the financial arrangement and the profitability of the new company.  On her way home from work, traveling at a speed of approximately 58 miles per hour, she crossed the center line and hit two vehicles.  She was legally drunk at the time of the incident. 

Nine people were injured in a van.  The father driving the van was pinned behind the steering wheel for approximately one hour until rescue personnel could execute him from the van.  The mother had a serious arm injury that required extensive surgery.  The other children were bumped and bruised except for an eight year girl who was flown to St. Joseph’s hospital in Phoenix where they specialize in dealing with brain injuries.  All the children, including the girl flown to Phoenix, made a very good recovery as did their parents.  A settlement was reached in the amount of 6.2 million dollars.
