Early Monday, May 15,
2006, Michael Glynn was severely injured in
a drinking and driving crash near White
River, SD. He was on his way home from a
party the morning after his High School
Graduation.
The car Michael was driving hit an approach,
and went airborne. Michael was ejected from
the vehicle.
Two days later, on May 17, 2006, Michael
died from his injuries. He was 18 years old.
Alcohol and speed were factors in this
crash. Michael was not wearing his seatbelt.
Had alcohol not been a factor, the crash
might not have happened. Had Michael been
wearing his seatbelt, he likely wouldn’t
have been ejected from the car and would
still be with us today.
Listen
to Joyce Glynn, Michael’s mother, talk about
the crash on the
South Dakota Parents Matter website.
Her hope is to spare others the anguish that
her family went through when Michael died.
