I remember when I was 16, and got drunk at a party. I didn't want to drive home with some friends who had also been drinking. I ended up calling my dad, asking him to come get me. By the time he got there, I was passed out, and needed help getting to the car. The next morning, I KNEW I was going to get the beating of my life. My dad sat me down in the kitchen, and started telling me how disappointed he was with me. He then got up, came next to me, and I was fully prepared for the beating to start.. Instead, he got on his knees, hugged me, and started crying, telling me how important I was to him and my mom. He thanked me for having the courage to call him, and not go home with anyone that was drunk.

It was the worst feeling I've ever had, making my dad cry. I never got drunk again as a teenager. It's still the worst beating that I never got.

I'm thankful in some ways that my dad struck the fear in me to not even think of drinking or going to parties when I was in high school. I wasn't allowed to stay at friend's houses overnight or anything. Looking back on it now it seems like it was a blessing.

Being a Father to an only child, this is my absolute worst nightmare, I feel terrible for her family and can't imagine the grief they are going through.

These stories break my heart. That poor mom. What a nightmare.

It seems she might have been intoxicated and disoriented and drove in the wrong direction straight into the lake.
No foul play may have been involved except for those who supplied the intoxicants.

As always great work Adventurers With Purpose! You always help families in need! My condolences to this young lady's family, and friends.✌🏾❤️

I feel weird saying I'm happy for the guys at Adentures with Purpose but I am Im glad they were the ones that found her they are great people and deserve all this recognition they are getting....they have been bringing closure to families for years and law enforcement usually gives them a hard time just for trying to help

[unchargedpickles]

Adventures w purpose is one that I actually donate $ to cause I know if someone in my family was missing it'd mean the world to me to find them. One of the worthy causes to fund for sure. Wish I had more money to donate more to them.

I’m so heart broken for this family. I hope they’re able to find some sort of comfort through all this.

This is what we expected, our biggest worry for young drivers.
Good that mum and friends found out what heppent, thanks to these volunteers!

[mollyjackson]

I knew from the start it'd take AWP to find this young lady. The second o heard they called them in, I thought to myself "they brought in the big guns sweetheart, they'll find you and get you back to your mom"


AWP- I love you guys, thank you..

A drunk 16 year old smh. Parents have to do better. Be a parent not a friend... there's a difference

[Cortney_Whitecotton]

Adventure with a purpose are amazing guys. Thank u guys for finding her so the fam can have closure

[rebeccamouse]

Anyone who is criticizing this mom: shame on you. Just stop it. She lost her daughter.

What happened is that an inexperienced driver, a child, was allowed to attend a party that served alcohol, then allowed to get behind the wheel while her friends left her behind. Her parents and friends failed her. RIP.

Those guys ( the diving team) do such a great job . Maybe not the outcome families wish for but at least they have answers. Love from Canada 🇨🇦

This could have been prevented if someone would have taken her keys.😔

[stephaniemillington]

It was late night & driving fast, she went right into the water; no one witnessed down there in the pitch dark.. Finding her in the back means she did her best to try an escape but the SUV was upside down w electrical locks & windows, she couldn't get out.. I feel so bad for her family & friends! The people w conspiracy theories is horrible!

[TechJayr]

I’m guessing she was drunk and drove her car into the lake, drowning maybe . ☹️. Prayers to her mom and family . This is sad ❤️🙏🏼

AWP are total heroes for this, who knows how long she would’ve been missing.
