Mom of daughter killed in car crash on wedding day fights groom for multi million dollar settlement

The things people will go to for money...

Well, the poor mother's entire retirement plan to sponge off her daugher and new son-in-law is gone.

What else do you expect the poor woman to do?

way to throw your reputation away, she could have collected pity for the rest of her day now she's the biggest cunt in the universe

The mother looks like Steven Tyler in drag, and has utterly crazy eyes. Something tells me that she isn't particularly sorry about her daughter's death and would be willing to do anything to exploit the situation for profit.

Still, it's very sad to read what happened, as the couple looked really happy and in love and they were exceptionally unlucky to be run over by a drunk driver precisely on their wedding night. RIP. 😭

WOW!! Just WOW! That is a "Fucking low-down dirty shame."

The MOM must be the" cuntiest cunt that ever cunted" in the entire world.

What a Fucking Bitch!!

Whoa...Cold!

What a massive cunt. I would love it if he could turn around and sue her for mental and emotional distress after all of this is done.

I dunno - parents rely on their children often in retirement for care. If the dead woman’s life is being monetarily valued then I think the mother does deserve a proportional distribution of the money. Why would the husband deserve it all? I mean realistically he’s getting money because of the lost financial benefit a spouse provides. Why wouldn’t the parents be entitled to that too?

what a stupid whore

[quote] Why would the husband deserve it all?

Maybe because he was also in the car when it got hit and was injured. The mother was still at the reception offering blow jobs to the Guatemalan bus boys.

I would spend a million or two of the settlement just to ruin that cunt's life even more, Peter Thiel/Gawker style.

R8, the husband had already offered the mom half. This greedy whore wants more!

Gross. Even more gross is the lawyer who took her case.

[quote] The groom, Aric Hutchinson, is set to settle multi-million dollar lawsuits against the bars where the accused driver allegedly got drunk.

I didnt know you could sue bars for serving people alcohol. Not trying to be a snarky cunt but isn't that mainly what bars are for? Drinking alcohol? I wonder if you can sue a brothel if you catch an STI from there? Again I don't want to seem snarky just genuinely curious. I'm happy the groom was able to get paid from this tragedy. I'm sure he'll be tortured with the "What If's" for the rest of his life and he deserves compensation. I'm conflicted about the mother. On the one hand she did give birth to the bride who was not even married a full day when this tragedy happened but on the other hand she's being extremely disrespectful of her daughter's marriage, almost like she doesn't think it's valid even though it clearly was and I'm sure they dated before getting engaged and married so I don't know why mom is treating him like a stranger. She needs a therapist who knows grief and loss.

unless you are a mother your opinion doesn't count. I can't imagine what it must be like to lose your daughter at that age and then watch her new husband get millions because of her death. I have a feeling this isn't as much about money as it is watching him profit off her daughter's death, and they hadn't even been married 24 hours. I'm sure he feels like he hit the jackpot. Why is he so greedy that he doesn't want to share it with her?

Unless you are a newly wedded groom your opinion doesn't count, r15.

Team Husband.

^^^ fuck off frou.

[quote] fuck off frou

oh, dear.

R15 is the frauiest frau that ever fraued.

The bride’s husband offered his mother in law half the settlement. She wants it all. If there was no lawsuit and monetary settlement, and the bride still died tragically on her wedding day would the mother still claim the marriage was invalid?

What a cunt.

R12 ohhhhhhh I didn’t realize that. Well in that case she needs to chill.

r20 I didn't see that he had offered her half.

R14

Yes a bar can be sued for over serving a drunk who goes on to cause damage.

R14 the issue usually boils down to over serving clearly intoxicated people not just that they consumed alcohol. They know the potential for this sort of harm and have a duty of care imposed on them. Their referred to as dramaship laws.

R15’s knee-jerk reaction and sense of entitlement is why fraus are so insufferable. Check yourself, r15.

He's cute and rich. They had a go fund me that raised over 700,000 dollars so maybe that's why the mom is being a cunt but regardless she is complete and total cunt.

He's not profiting off her death you idiot he was actually there when the incident took place and was seriously injured in the crash. He was also there to witness his wife's death you insensitive cow. Didn't you read the article? He lost his wife on his wedding night that will stay with him forever money or no money and even if/when he meets another woman. People like you and this mother don't think men actually have feelings or that their feelings aren't valid because they're men. That's your own sick issue you should get help for.

My pussy stinks!

If children help support their parents in their old age, that's voluntary. You can't expect it. I hope the injured groom withdraws the offer of half. *Now*, MIL should get nothing but scorn. But she is eligible for Cunt Hall of Fame.

Next she'll be on Dateline telling Keith Morrison that it was a set-up and the husband had his bride killed for the money.

[quote]Why wouldn’t the parents be entitled to that too?

Because it’s the parents’ duty to support the child until they reach the age of majority, not the other way around.

It’s nice when a kid helps their older parents out but there is zero financial obligation there.

I just KNOW Buster Murtaugh is mixed up in this

Blimey she's a hardcore bitch isn't she? What a cold heart she has in the death of her child but missing out on a few bucks as well. As the saying goes 'Money is the root of all evil'

[quote]Their referred to as dramaship laws.

Oh, dear.

That's "Dram Shop."

[quote] the husband had already offered the mom half.

Where did you guys see this?

r15 "unless you are a mother your opinion doesn't count"

Fuck off.

R15 Unless you are a mother whose daughter was killed by a drunk driver, your opinion doesn't count.

You gave your opinion. Are you a mother? Was your daughter killed by a drunk driver?

What a stanking, rotting gash of a cunt.

Unless you are a mother your opinion doesn’t count

R36, That fact has appeared in numerous articles.

“Aric has been more than generous with Lisa Miller — offering her half of the money — and she has repaid him by threatening to bring a frivolous challenge to the validity of his marriage to Sam,” one of Hutchinson's attorneys, Patrick Wooten, told The Post and Courier.“

R41 . . .

She could have died the day before the wedding. Would the mother offer to give half to husband-to-be? I doubt it.

The first thing families think of after a death is money, even if the dead person walked in front of a car. The news channels will interview them and they try to act sad, but you can see they only agreed to the interview to attract an ambulance-chasing lawyer.

If the groom had died instead of the bride, would this mother-in-law tell her daughter to give the groom's parents the settlement? I think not.

Legally, this woman is not entitled to anything...because the husband is her next-of-kin. But beyond that, I'm not sure why she'd even think she deserves anything. She wasn't financially dependent on her daughter, unless she was a complete and utter failure at life.

[quote]The MOM must be the" cuntiest cunt that ever cunted" in the entire world.

Hold my fucking beer.

[quote]unless she was a complete and utter failure at life

Seems to be a given.

Well, r8, there's a matter of law. Spouses inherit.

She’s the definition of the “mother-in-law from hell”.

She's probably the type that would boo little retards at a parade.

R8 what the f*** are you talking about parents do not have children solely so they have somebody to provide for them when they're old I mean I'm sure some do but by and large people specifically don't expect their children to financially provide for them. You're a dumb f***.

If it looks like a cunt and smells like a cunt, it must be a cunt.

How much money is this young woman' estate?

$322.14

[quote] How much money is this young woman' estate?

She probably didn't have much.

The money is coming from a settlement, not from an "estate."

R53 Wake up, dumbass.

R53 girl take an extra beta blocker this evening that’s not what I said.

LOL - I can't believe that anyone is running with my sarcasm about the daughter being mom's retirement plan.

But, DLers are known for their filial piety, so I guess it's to be expected that folks would side with the mother.

Greedy bitch.

ambulance 🚑 chasers, the whole lot, I say

Perhaps, r62. But if you are not a mother, apparently YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SAY IT!

I’m not a mother because god gave me this huge fucking penis.

Mysterious ways, r64. Mysterious ways.

She was willingly offered half, and she does this? Yeah. She deserves zero now.

Can't she have the marriage annulled? Always get as much as you can.

On the surface, this seems straightforward that the husband, not the mother, is the legal next of kin.

I wonder whether there's something more to this, like while they signed the marriage certificate, it hadn't yet been filed the county clerk's office or some such. Some weird techicality on which the mother is making her claim.

He offered her half, that is more than he needed to do, but was the right thing to do. She is just a greedy cunt. Parents have an obligation to provide for their children until they reach legal age. After that, there is no legal financial obligation in either direction. If she was single, her mother might be her next of kin (unless she had siblings that she legally designated as such.) Not to say she wouldn't have standing in a lawsuit, but so does her husband, despite the fact that they were married for less than a day.

Team husband all the way.

What about the dead bride’s father?

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if one of this woman's rationalizations is that the widower will eventually remarry and the new wife will also benefit from the proceeds and thinks it's not "fair."

Her parents divorced when Samantha was young and her mother remarried. I am assuming that the second marriage didn’t stick because the stepfather is disgusted with what the mother is doing.

He said she’s doing it out of greed, not guilt.

Sorry, I meant to write “doing it out of greed, not grief”.

What a fucking asshole way of thinking. The U.S. is proud of the stance of many parents to chuck out their children at 18, or to start charging them for rent and expenses, yet this one supports an equally backward and backwoods strain of thought that people have children that their adult children might look after them financially in the parents' dotage.

[quote] He offered her half, that is more than he needed to do, but was the right thing to do.

I don't think it was "the right thing to do." He got legally married to this woman. He ostensibly was willing to accept the good and the bad ("in sickness and in health"). Things could have turned out much different. Wife could have ended up a quadriplegic. Would that be 50% the mom's responsibility? No.

He should have never have made the offer of half. The courts will strongly encourage a settlement and that first offer will be the starting point.

Yup. She should get zilch.

Could withdraw the offer and make her lawyer start from scratch?

[quote] Aric Miller knows how her daughter "would have wanted all of this handled.

Babe, I'm so excited for our wedding and can't wait to start our new lives together. But let's say, oh I don't know, we happen to creamed by drunk driver leaving the reception and, let's say, I'm dead, my wishes are that you forward any multimillion dollar settlement from any negligent bars or other third parties to my mom without prejudice. Okay, babe? That's what I would want. Now put on your tux mister man!!

[quote] Could withdraw the offer and make her lawyer start from scratch?

The offer is already withdrawn. When Mom rejected 50%, the offer automatically is off the table. If Mom had said, what about 60%, that would also have taken husband's offer off the table.

Even if Mom had said, "I accept." (The 50%.) There's an argument that it was not a valid offer as there was no "consideration." Mom agreed to give up nothing in return for the 50%.

[QUOTE]has petitioned a probate judge to remove Hutchinson as the personal representative of his wife’s estate, citing “issues of potential fraud” and “conflicts of interests,”

Jesus, what could this "potential fraud" be? That's turning the knife.

I wonder is she's aware of the notoriety and scorn she's getting.

He would have beaten her and the marriage would have been over in 6 months. You know how het marriages are.
