Less than 3 years ago the owner raised over 40k on gofundme to renovate and keep the theater open, about 5x what was asked for. Not saying there is funny business here, but I’d be disappointed if I donated a significant amount. I know a drive in theater can’t be a lucrative business and it’s sad she had to sell in the end after all those years.

I'm referring to the parents. They should both be in jail for allowing one of their teenage kids to KNOWINGLY drive the other kids ages 8-17 when the kid didn't have a license. The father even admitted to knowing the 16 year old kid would drive around unlicensed and would drive the other kids as well...

Also, I'm not buying the story the mom said about the kids being at a mall? What mall is open at 10:00pm or later? They crashed at 12:20...what is an 8 year old and 9 year old (where there wasn't even room in the car for the 9 year old, they were in the trunk) doing awake at 12:00?

Also, how did the parents not know their kids were being driven around by a 16 year old with no license?

What mall is open at 12:30am? Or close to that time? Why were 8/9/12 year olds out at that time with other teenagers and no adults present? not to mention the driver with no license.

None of the children were registered in school in derby either….sounds like their parents didn’t care what they did. How sad for those children who needed to be home in their beds. Rest In paradise. A sad day.
