The drunk driver who allegedly took the life of a new bride who had just left her reception alongside her husband in April hopes to be able to live “the good life” in two years… even if her crime could earn her 25 years behind bars.
“In two years, you’re living your best life and you’re happy and everything is fine. Are you doing well. You can’t control everything (…) All I can do is the next best thing. Bad things will happen. It’s how you handle it (that matters),” Jamie Lee Komoroski, 26, allegedly tried to reassure himself on the phone with his sister Kelsi, according to recordings obtained by the “New York Post.”
Despite the serious accusations against her, the 26-year-old young woman reportedly showed a lot of optimism about the future during a call with her sister last October.

The thirty-year-old had been killed in the neck. Data recovered from the accused’s damaged Toyota allegedly revealed that it had reached 105 km/h at the time of impact, in a 40 km/h zone.

But in the future, when you look back, you would like to be able to say to yourself “Stop panicking, stop crying, it will be okay” (…) Everything will work out,” she told her sister, according to the American media.
