RIP Karen Diaz
Karen Diaz was killed on March 10th on I-278 exit near 92nd Street in Bay Ridge. (Story here)
Karen was riding in a car with her friend, 30 year Mark Dookhan, who reportedly was driving drunk slammed into the back of a huge 18 wheeler freight truck.
It was an awful accident. There is a video on Loudlabs on Youtube. The video made me cry and I don’t even know Karen Diaz.
Dookhan was hit with driving while intoxicated charges at NYU Langone Hospital. The paper reported that Dookhan was arrested for drunk driving. (Source)
Here’s the part that is awful: “He had a previous conviction for the same offense within the past 10 years.” (See here) People who drive after drinking should have their license taken away!
Today 3/13, I wrote to Assemblywoman Mathylde Frontus. I asked her to pass a law that would make repeat offenders have to have a breathalyzer device installed in a car. It would lock the ignition of someone who wasn’t able to drive again. My tweet is here. If you are a friend or family member, I urge you to reach out to Mathylde in Karen’s memory. I know it won’t bring back your friend or loved one, but it will stop someone else for being in the place you are today.
Diaz was only 30 years old and from Staten Island.
RIP. Prayers for Karen’s family and friends. How awful it must be to hear that this beautiful, young woman died this way. She’s with God.
Prayers for Mark Dookhan. He will have to live with the thought that he killed his friend.

Hugs,

Mark Dookhan will burn in hell. He is the biggest piece of ****. No prayers for Mark, a punkass bitch.
RIP Karen, you deserved better

My condolences to Karen’s family. Karen did not deserve this. I had the pleasure of meeting Karen through my nephew. She lit up a room with here beauty. So young, may God test her soul. This man should indeed pay for his crime.
