View Full Version : Get Drunk, Pass Out, Lose Limbs

Around 9:30 a.m. on December 7, University of Minnesota-Duluth student Alyssa Jo Lommel, 19, was found nearly frozen to death on a neighbor's porch. She'd apparently spent the entire night outside while temperatures dropped as low as 17 below zero.
The driver of [the pickup that dropped Lommel off around midnight] was asked how intoxicated Lommel was. Friends said she had been drinking for six hours, including a game where she took tequila shots. Police reported finding a Twitter entry from Lommel stating "Yum Yum 10th shot of tequila." [It appears that tweet, along with the one screengrabbed above, has been deleted from Lommel's account.]
The man who dropped her off told police that Lommel had "no more than usual" when it came to drinks that night.
"Just like a normal party chick," the report read when talking about the driver's observations. "She wasn't wasted. She could talk. And she wasn't falling-down drunk."
She's really taking a beating in social media.

:sadangel: stupidity...the leading cause of death for those under 25. When I think back about all the stupid crap I did between 16 and 21, I am tremendously lucky to still be alive. Between drugs, alcohol, fast cars and just the overall sense of "it won't happen to me" I'm a walking talking miracle.

If it weren't for joining the Navy, and being deathly afraid of my LPO and pissing him off, I might not be here today either! :lol:

Minus the drugs, I have to agree.

Sounds about right :yesnod:
Really awful to hear about poor decisions that lead to outcomes that can't be undone.

Any guesses as to what she's going to lose?
I'm thinking both hands. Maybe a foot or two.

The question is doesn't the guy that dropped her off bear some responsibility, at least morally if not legally? It seems that his story is constructed to cover his ass. Bad deal all the way around.

I was thinking the same thing. Wouldn't you make sure she was inside before driving off?

Absolutely, even in warm weather. I'm sure he was hammered too.
Keep us posted if you hear of him being charged with anything.

She was underage. What do you think the odds are the person that dropped her off was also?

Probably so, but he can still be charged with a crime if it's appropriate. A minor can even be charged as an adult under some circumstances.

Apparently she refused his request for a hummer.
Bitch, get out !

That may not be far from the truth. I mean after all, he bought her some drinks, didn't he?:D

The article never really says what's getting chopped off. Is it arms and legs or fingers and toes?

I hope for her sake its just true extremities (toes or fingers maybe, hopefully not ears since those can go to)

That kind of medical information can only be released with the family's permission.

That would suck for anyone. Such a pretty girl too. I hope she deals with it ok. The driver damn sure should have made sure she was ok. :sadangel:

she may need to a professional if the fingers or toes are getting removed

Pretty much the only reason this is even news. Homeless people freeze to death every day. Doesn't even make the last page. It's only a tragedy when it happens to a cute young girl.. :yesnod:
