STILLWATER, Oklahoma - The District Attorney believes the woman who caused the OSU Homecoming Parade tragedy intentionally drove into the crowd of people at the parade, but her attorney says she blacked out.
A probable cause affidavit states Adacia Chambers admitted to being suicidal at the time of the crash on Saturday, October 24, 2015.
Her attorney, Tony Coleman, describes Chambers as totally lacking emotion, almost lifeless.
"I mentioned to her, yet again, that there were people that actually died in this incident and her face was unmoved, unchanged, no sign of emotion," Coleman said.

This just keeps getting more bizarre. My daughter goes to school at OSU, but thank God she wasn't at the parade.

(62,444 posts)There is a big difference between something being intentional, or something being attributable to some sort of incapacity. Both sides have incentive to push in opposite directions.

(12,778 posts)She did, in fact, drive around a barricade and plow into a group of people. No way she just "blacked out."
Obviously this is kind of personal to me, but I don't have a lot of sympathy for the suspect.
