Death in 6 Seconds: A Night of Drinking, a Lifetime of Regret (12x17)

Data di messa in onda: Ott 02, 2013

Two years ago, 20-year-old Desaleen was the only survivor of a drunk-driving accident that killed two people — the driver and her best friend. Desaleen, who admits she was also drinking, captured the horrifying ordeal on video, from the passenger seat. See the dramatic footage, and hear Desaleen's account of that night. She says her physical injuries healed quickly, but her emotional scars are still very raw. She confides that since the accident, she’s been angry and oftentimes reckless with her behavior, including going out partying for days — leaving others to care for her 6-month-old son — and even getting into cars with people who have been drinking. How does she explain her choices? And, hear from Michael and Brenda, the couple who took in Desaleen and her baby after following her story on the news. What do they say are their biggest concerns for Desaleen? Plus, Dr. Phil talks to reporter Andrea McCarren, who covered the accident. Why does she say she is so determined to help Desaleen?
