It is nice that anyone has the freedom to say what they think in an open forum. It is sad that anyone feels that they have the right to speak to something they know nothing about. Do you know how hard she worked or how much she loved her daughter? Do you know the exact circumstances of what caused the wreck? Are you a highly skilled enough driver to say for sure you would have had a different result if you were driving? and Sober?Was she legally drunk? Did she swerve to miss an animal? She was young, hardworking and kind. This I know for a fact because I knew her, I worked with her. She was also HUMAN. Which last time I checked, so is everyone on this site. Mourn her loss, I know I will. Realize how short life is and live , don't judge

Everyone has an opinion, but no one really knows what happened. Why in society do we feel the need to judge or express our opinions. The truth is this poor girl is dead, her parents don't have their daughter, her daughter will grow up without a mother, her siblings will not grow old together. She will be desperately be missed by many friends and family and this tragedy will leave a void in their lives. So instead of speculating and judging, pray for this family. And next time you feel like condemning a situation you really know nothing about take a good look at your own life, no one is without fault and it could have very well been you or someone you love.

What is wrong with all of you making these comments about this young woman? Yes was she wrong for drinking and driving...absolutely and will this possibly hit home for others who drink and drive....hopefully. But my goodness she dies tragically and may God Bless her family. Those making nasty comments should be ashamed of themselves.

Brindy was an awesome person, she comes from an awesome family. It is heartbreaking to know this happened. Rest in Peace Brindy and know that we are praying for your family.

I knew Brindy before she moved away from (and back to) Reno. She was a responsible young lady who loved her child dearly; she was kind, caring and loving, but not selfish. Unfortunately, there are times in life when we do things we wish we would not have. I know I did, and I am lucky to still be alive. For some reason we will never understand, some of us survive and some of us do not. I mourn for Brindy and her family. And, I will pray for them. For those of you passing judgment on her, I hope you never have moments of weakness that cause people pass judgement on you. Please pray for everyone affected by this tragedy.

What an idiotic thing to say! Is it that time of the month?

What are you talking about? This makes no sense pertaining to my comment, but before I say anymore in response to your moot comment about mine, I'll give you a chance to re-read and comprehend what I said so you can see I was sticking up for "Anonymous".

Who are you to pass judgement on anyone? I am assuming that you are so perfect you are sitting right up there next to God? It doesn't really matter what happened, the girl is dead and there is a family that loved her and my heart goes out to them. So keep your stupid comments to yourself and let the family mourn in peace.

Sounds like Mike and Patrick should be accident investigators,they have it all figured out and if you don't agree with them you're an idiot. How do either of you know "Anonymous" wasn't a friend of hers and was with her ten minutes before the accident? The last person I would talk to would be Law Enforcement. I have seen the way they manipulate accident scenes. But go ahead and be chief accident investigators, you both have my vote for Sheriff.

Regardless of if this girl was drinking, she was obviously a selfish little girl. With a child, she wasn't responsible enough to wear a seatbelt? What time of night did this happen? My educated guess is that it was in the middle of the night... again, totally selfish and not keeping in mind the fact that she wasn't just living for herself anymore. People really should have to take a test before having children to see if they are truly ready for the responsibility. The younger you are, the chances are that you are not responsible enough to have children. And yes, now everyone respond and tell me that 1. "She was a great mother" or 2. "I had kids when I was 19 and was very responsible". Regardless of if she was drunk or texting or changing the radio station, there is no reason why she shouldn't have been wearing a seatbelt and now some poor child has to grow up without their real mom and that is the what the headline should read to raise awareness and get people thinking "Selfish mom killed being stupid". Yes, harsh. But maybe it would help wake up all the other young moms that will text or drink and drive or simply not pay attention when driving a couple thousand pound machine.

Come on Mike, do you work for the police department? Were you there? Did you witness it? If you answered "no" to the above questions, then you have no idea if alcohol was or wasn't a factor. The article says,"police BELIEVE alcohol was a contributing factor." Infering it was, not saying it was. You have no idea what happened, I wish I had a little more sympathy for people who think they are so smart and are quick to jump on other people's cases, but are actually just idiots who do not know the facts. Whether alcohol was or wasn't invloved, it is still very tragic for the family and friends around, and you, sir, should respect that and keep your opinions to yourself.

RIP? this is a nice trite saying that is meant to convey sympathy, but only GOD knows if she is in peace...we can only surmise, based upon God's Word. “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness! I truly hope she trusted in Christ as her Lord and Savior so she can indeed be resting in Peace. John 14:6

Come on Anonymous, the news doesn't have it wrong. They are reporting the information that the police gave to them... And if you know so much about the accident, why don't you go to the police? Were you in the car with her? Did you see the accident happen? If you answer to either one of the above 2 questions is "no", then in my opinion, you have no idea what happened. I wish I had a little more sympathy, but I have no sympathy for people who drink and drive.

The news have it wrong. This was NOT a DUI related accident. This girl didn't ever drink. She took a corner to fast and wrecked. It was a tragic ACCIDENT.

A relative asked me the other day how I liked Reno/Sparks and I said, "I call it the 'Home of the Rollover Crash.'" Unfortunately, it's happened again. She might have been a great mom and a great person but at least she didn't kill anyone else. Next time this happens, that someone else might not be so lucky.
