Why would someone flee such a bad wreck? You should never leave a friend behind. Alive or dead. Wounded or unharmed. What do you think thier reasons were?

Unless one is working or traveling, I see no reason why folks need to be out past midnight until dawn...unless you are up to NO GOOD! Parents, if you really care about your children, make sure they are home when it gets late because you just never know 'who else' is going to be on the road during late hours. It's just too dangerous.

I think this is horrible and I am very sorry for everyone involved, but we needs to learn a lesson from this. Do not drink and drive and especially not on the bridge! Also while I'm speaking, everyone who speeds across the bridge slow down!! Yhis could have been another factor as to why so many cars were involved! We all know that as soon as we hit the bridge we turn into nascar drivers and want to speed. This is dumb very very dumb as in this case you could hit things and hurt or kill yourself just because you wanted a thrill! The Mississippi bridge is not a thrill ride folks so learn from this and dont drink and drive and dont speed across the bridge!

((linenbreeze)) i agree hopefully the parents will think about it 'hey my kid was out at 4 am let me call the police' i doubt that will happen considering a lot of teens wait until old mom and dad or sound asleep and go out the back door, window, etc..... I think the boy was released on such a low bond because MAYBE THE WHOLE ACCIDENT THING WASN'T HIS FAULT... MAYBE HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ONE PERSON DYING AND THE OTHER TAKEN TO JACKSON... i caps locked that that was the word MAYBE could be seen. i don't know the people from another (not that it will be hard to find out all had to do was make a couple phone calls) MAYBE this Cedric person KNEW the his DRINKING AND DRIVIN WAS WRONG that's why he stayed to face his responsibility

When you are young, you feel so invincible and this is the tragedy of this all. You don't fully comprehend the dangers of the decisions you make, and the results or the consequences. I am an advocate that young people, especially driving age, should be shown accident scenes, etc, to let them know, this IS NOT A JOKE. When you make foolish decisions, bad things can happen. I feel so bad for the families involved, because this seems this could have all been avoided, just by making a decision to do something.

Well, the way i see it if all of the young people were above the age of 17 yrs. old
there was nothing the parents could do it is a state law that they [ the young people 17 and older can leave the parents home at age 17 and a parent CAN NOT DO A THANG ABOUT IT .

I think you are right, overthehill. I'm sure viewing the bodies of a victims from such accidents would change the way they think. When I took driver's ed, they showed us films and it did make a difference to me. I will not drive if I've had one drink. Not because I don't feel I am capable, but because if something happened, I would not be able to forgive myself. Accidents can happen to anyone at any time, but I don't want to increase my chances by drinking and driving. I could not live with causing the death of another person and for me - that is enough to keep me from doing it.

Yeah, we all did stupid stuff when we were young, but today it seems as if there is a mind set of "absolute disregard" for anyone's safety. We had violent shows on TV in the 70's, we had booze in the 70's but, even when we were being stupid we still had some fear of consequences. I can't help but think it might be a situation of parents trying to be friends with there kids and not being parents.

I hope the families of all of these victims will allow the photos to be made public. Maybe that will make young (and old) people realize how bad things can get. For years you have seen wrecked cars in front of high schools warning kids of the dangers of drunk driving. Most of them are from somewhere else - not cars that belonged to or were driven by a friend or peer. I think that may have a better impact. I would certainly allow it - if it helped save even one life.

IMO, the type of situation that happened, could have been a direct result of poor parenting, but then again, I know children from good homes who receive good parental direction, yet they still can make foolish decisions. I really think the kid has to have his head on straight, and be willing to also judge consequences for actions. My heart goes out to those parents, who ARE doing their jobs, but because of extreme rebellion, their kids don't listen.

I remember as a requirement for my bachelor's degree in law, we had to view an autopsy of a murder victim who was a prostitute, heavily supplying a drug habit. The stench when they opened her up was unbearable. I do believe, teen should also be exposed to this, just so they can see what happens from bad/ foolish choices.

I am in my 50's and believe it or not, I did not get to stay out past 11:00p.m. because my Daddy said I couldn't. I didn't drink and drive. I didn't do drugs. I didn't talk back to him for fear of getting a whipping. I turned out fine. I have three children that are grown now and when they were teenagers, they were respectful of my husband and myself and they came home by 12:00. I told them like I was told, "there is nothing good happening after 12:00am." Come on home and get in bed so "I" can get a good nights sleep. I couldn't just be their "friend" when they were teenagers. That is when they need a parent more than anything. They have friends at school. I may sound old fashioned, but that is just the way it was. Now all three of my children are my friends. And believe it or not, they still love me and think that I got smarter as they got older.

That's all true, and I WAS THE SAME TYPE OF KID TO MY PARENTS, my brother and I were. We didn't do things out of Godly fear, because we were brought up in church, and taught how to fear God, but we also had a fear of getting our hides tanned, so we tested the bar some, but we KNEW how far to go, no more. I PERSONALLY know kids, brought up in that same environment, for whatever reason, are just downright incorrigible. The parents are not trying to be their friends, and did break out a belt on them when needed. I pray my child is never like this, but what can you do when you take everything from them, take away the friends, etc. Also, we were not allowed out past a certain time, as these kids were not.

Yes, time has told their story, as it has told ours. We are law abiding, parents never had to pick us up from jail, or get a call we were locked up. They never had to get up all hours of the night looking for us etc. Now this kid who simply would not listen, he has a arrest record longer than we can even imagine, and is now in the department of corrections care. I know the difference between bad parenting and good parenting, I am just saying that NOT ALL of what a child decides to do, is a result of bad parenting.

Photos of the scene don't have to be published, just take your child to the VPD --- Four of the cars are there. It scared my daughter to death this morning on our way to school. My parnets raised me to know better than to drink and drive, but when I turned 18 --- guess what? I was bulletproof!!!! Atleast that is what I thought. I thank God everyday that I actually survivied many trips from Wades, The cotten gin, Dimples, Ramada and not to mention all the out of town trips. I am my daughters friend, but I am her mom first!!!There is nothing wrong with being there friend, but not to 'super cool mom'. All I can do is raise in the best I can. I made the decision to raise my children in a church with a great youth group that she enjoys being a part of. But at some point in their lives they will be making the decision. We can only pray that they use what we have tried to teach them. Parents are not responsible for what decision that is made after age 17 or 18 yrs old.
This tragedy has made an impact on our area, whether we know anyone in the accident or not. It's heart breaking and this is a time that everyone needs to turn themselves to God, just say 'thank you, keep me safe and please be with the families'. God was there with each one of these kids as the night unfolded, he spared some and took one. From the comments of the witness, her life has changed!

I don't think it's all the parent's fault. I know some people who had the best parenting (strict) and turned out to be thugs. On the other hand, I also know people who had no real parenting at all and turned out great. The main lesson we need to all learn from this is to take responsibilty for our own actions. Don't look to blame society, parents or whatever for all the wrong in the world. Some people just make bad decisions and need to learn that sometimes bad things result from that. The best any of us can do is use common sense and common courtesy.

In all of the comments made here I have seen no reference to Danny's Lounge. Why were they open at 4:00am? Should they be held accountable? An eye witness to this accident stated they had all just left Danny's Lounge.

Because Danny's was open at 4am, this caused the accident? I mean, if they got the alcohol from Danny's, MAYBE, but this could have easily also occured with the teens getting a hold of the alcohol themselves, then deciding to race or do whatever they were doing. When I was going out to clubs, I remember leaving liquored up, but all I did was want to go home and sleep it off. I never wanted to drag race someone. Unfortunately, those involved made the bad/foolish decision to do what they did.

Since a lot of information has not been given out it has led to a lot speculation and conjecture from those who DON'T KNOW what really transpired. There are a lot of rumors circulating but again a lot of people making comments here and "around the water cooler" amd simply DON'T KNOW the facts. Now parents are being blamed, alleged "friends" are being blamed, evening the victims are being blamed. Suppose the victims were crossing the bridge and some idot hit them head-on b/c they were being careless with other people's lives. Has anyone even stopped to think that the victims were just that -VICTIMS-in the wrong place at the wrong time. Who has confirmed that the victims were the ones racing. The way the headline was written may lead one to believe that everyone involved in the accident was drinking. In the end, that may be found to be true but why not wait and see what's really true. Let's just pray for the victims and their families and wait until the FACTS are released as to what really happened.

Yes cedric may have been drinking but he was going back to natchez on the correct bridge. who is blame of this wreck was the mustange that was flying down the wrong bridge. so people don't blame someone if u don't know what really went on. put yourself in cedric shoes. its enough that he saw how bad the kids were hurt but he also could have been killed.

Snoopy, I mean no offense, but I don't recall reading where anyone blamed the victims. The fact is, the facts have not been released. But, it seems obvious that the person that was traveling on the wrong bridge seems to have caused this. I didn't assume that all involved were drinking and I haven't noticed anyone blaming this Cedric guy for all of this. What the paper said was that he was arrested for DWI. It never said he caused the accident. I understand that rumors fly at these times, but I think most of us are mature enough to wait for the official report before we judge or blame anyone. Unfortunately, for now, all we have to go on are these comments. Some may be true, some may not. We have to take them that way and wait for the official word. I think we are all curious about what happened and what caused this tragedy. There seems to have been so many people at this scene, but very little facts told. Maybe we will be updated soon. I hope everyone will be ok.

I can't imagine (from looking at those vehicles) that more people weren't seriously hurt. I wonder how fast these cars were going at the time of the accident. Did the cars swerve to miss the one traveling the wrong way and end up hitting each other? Or did one of them hit the car going the wrong way and the rest of the cars piled up because they couldn't stop in time? I guess they will release all of that when they know.

If the rumor was true that they were running from someone who was shooting at them, then they weren't trying to hurt someone. Of course, even if you are being chased - there's no good reason to travel down a road (much less a bridge) the wrong way.

Maybe so, but the person that caused the wreck (assuming it was just one) will surely be charged with vehicular manslaughter. I'm sure this investigation is ongoing and I'm sure we haven't heard the end of it. The one person they arrested as of now could have just been one of the ones driving any of the vehicles involved. It doesn't mean he was the one that caused it. At least that is what I am understanding. Maybe there will be more facts released tomorrow.

I read the crime reports several times per week and I am always astonished to see that these DUI and DWI offenders are released on their first and second charge and only have to pay a small amount of bond. Then they go out and a few weeks later they are in again in the paper only this time they are being released to the state to serve time. This is in Louisiana and Mississippi! That is three times they could have gone out and murdered someone, put someone in a wheelchair, or killed themselves! How is that right? WHY NOT PUNISH THEM THE FIRST TIME? My son is 6 and my daughter is 1 and you can bet that if they get in trouble when they are older for drinking and driving they better hope the cops keep them!

I think the accident is a terrible tragedy but I also think that people who are posting information on this site about the accident and the condition of the people involved are adding to the confusion surrounding this tragedy. Most people won't post information that should be released by law enforcement but I believe that it makes some people feel "important" if they are reporting information that they "know" or "heard" about.

I hope the Natchez Democrat will rethink their policy on these blogs. One day there is going to be a lawsuit involved when something is posted that shouldn't be.

THIS DUDE LOVED PLAYING EVERY SPORT,MOSTLY FOOTBALL. MIKE ALWAYS SAID HE WANTED TO BE JUST LIKE HIS #1 PLAYER NUKE (TERRANCE JOHNSON).GOD ALREADY HAS EVERYTHING PLANNED OUT, THEREFORE, NUCK WAS KILLED 3 DAYS LATER ALONG WITH KEVIN KEYS. SO EVEN THOUGH HE NEVER HAD A CHANCE TO PLAY HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL LIKE HIS STAR PLAYER, THEY ARE STILL IN HEAVEN PLAYING FOOTBALL TOGETHER. REST IN PEACE MIKE, NUKE, AND KEVIN.

woohoo there is my new car on the left in the back!!

anyway, it's very sad what happened, but maybe this will make kids think about their actions....maybe... they all still have that mindset that they are immortal and that it couldn't happen to them...*sigh*..

free_radical Exactly what I heard. Has anyone heard about bullet holes in the gray Mustang?

Yes, there were bullet holes in the gray mustang caused by the red mustang, from what I can gather.

i feel if u don't know the truth or wasn't there u shouldn't be assuming.. i was there the gray mustang accident happened long before the others and the car in front came back and rushed the passengers to hospital.. they didn't flee the scene. if they did why would they give reports.the other accident happened after they were taken to the hospital.. and no there was nobody shooting that was an older incident and the driver has the police report to verify that.. its real funny how everybody commenting wasn't there and sayin things thats not close to the truth but my prayers to the family of the deceased young men..the red car stopped on the bridge to cause the gray mustang to lose control and hit the brige and the red car fleed the scene the gray mustang wasn't not involved in the other accident so they need to be looking for whoever drove that red car i guess they can't so they have to blame somebody

think about it if the ppl in the gray mustang was invoved how did they get off the bridge through all the other cars.. they can check the time they made it to the hospital to verify that.. the ppl in the gray mustang later learned about the other accident once they were already at the hospital i know cause i was there

Itsallaboutme you are not making sense, clarify please. And like I said "from what I can gather". This is a blog spot and people are here to do just that. All I know is the police were asking "where is the driver of the gray mustang", and that's a fact! Something is not true about that statement!

no the gray mustang was futher down close to vi-lou and the other accident was closer to ntz the other cars had already passed the gray mustang.. and the gray was turned the other way because it spinned around after it hit the bridge from the red car that was sittin on the bridge they wasn't runnin from no other car..ppl post thing to fit what they assume but ppl life is at risk and i feel u sholdn't say anthing if u don't know all my comments are facts.. i can't comment on the other accident with the deaths cause i was at the hospital wit the passengers from the gray mustang

they were at the hospital the police came to the hospital and got statements don't tell me it don't make sense when u wasn't there thats why all the rumors are started now i understand ppl tryin to find out but don't say things if your not for sure

Ok, I'm confused. So the gray mustang hit only the bridge and no other vehicles? What caused the other three vehicles to crash? Did the red car cause both accidents? Or did the other three cars crash because they were looking at the wrecked gray mustang? This is all crazy. I'll be glad when the police release the official report. How long was it between the first and second accident and why weren't the police called when the gray mustang wrecked? If the police had been called, they would have known where that passenger/driver were and they would have already sent someone to the scene to move the car. Something is very odd about all of this.

itsallaboutme
Apparently you are involved someway with the gray Mustang driver so it's only natural you defend him. It will all come out when the investigaion is complete.
Your story is very confusing and doesn't make much sense.
At 4:00 in the morning there are very few cars on the bridge, all these cars driven by drunk people are connected someway. All cars were at the VPD being investigated. Now if the bullet holes in the gray car were from that incident or another one I don't know.
You try to sound like you know so much but you admitted you don't know anything about the red car because you were at the hospital with the victims of the gray car. Either you don't know or you know EVERYTING.
Maybe you need to step out while you are somewhat ahead.

This is a very sad time for the families that their children were involved in this tragic accident. Please try to be a little more compassionate with the families and the kids that were either injured or killed from kids being kids. My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone involved in the tragic occurance.

um guys, this isn't CSI. it doesn't take less than a week to solve a crime/incident like on TV. This could take months, even years, considering there are likely people coming forward who werent even there, trying to "help" or telling stories they've heard, or just making up stuff to be in the limelight. you have to realize that this is going to take longer, and even then, we may NEVER know what happened. just because there is an investigation doesn't mean it will ever be solved. there will be many theories, but no one knows what happened except those involved, and the key bits of info may have only been held by those who have passed because of this. don't be so impatient, and give the cops the time they need to solve a case. would you prefer they jump to conclusions and blame the wrong people? i wouldn't! these things take time, people, and they are not required to tell ANYONE ANYTHING until they feel like it. we are lucky we have been told all that we have.

Whatever itsallaboutme.
It sounds like u r someone u know have something to hide. Your little statement smells a lil fishy if u know what I mean. Again as others have stated your story does not make any sense at all. Ok, lets just say da gray car hit da bridge, the red car or whatever, why wasn't a officer or investigator at this accident? You're gonna say the police came to the hospital and didn't send a cop to the scene. why wouldn't u r someone from your group report da accident instantly, that would have bn the smart thing to do. It seem like more than 1 DUI should have been issused, but o you guys fled the scene, my bad went to the hospital. Just maybe if the cops would have been on the scene for the 1st accident the second would not have occured. Come on Ms itsallaboutme get it together. On a positive note, my prayers are with everyone involved beacuse this is a serious issuse at hand.

I agree with everyone else, you are hiding something, but the police will pull it out of you.
