DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE, UNLESS YOU WANT TO DIE: 2 recent high school drunk grads killed in speeding car crash outside shopping mall in Paramus, New Jersey
Since she was injected, along with the other 3 drunks, from the speeding car, she was not wearing a seat belt and none of the other did. What a waste of young lives! They drink and drive and speed and do not wear seat belts. This is an example of what not to do!
Monday, August 28, 2017 PARAMUS, New Jersey (WABC) -- Two recent high school graduates were killed when their car flipped in a parking lot in Paramus over the weekend, and on Sunday night, hundreds of people came together to honor their lives.
Loved ones and classmates turned out at Century Field in Garfield for 19-year-old Jennah DiSclafani (in other articles, the name is shown as Jennah Mae DeSalafani) and her best friend, Mariah Gomez, 20, who were killed in a horrific drunk-related crash.
"There was never a time that they weren't smiling or happy," friend Bryan Rodriguez said. "It seemed like they didn't go through the pain other people went through."
Mourners lit candles and held each other, and they prayed and sent balloons to heaven. They even laughed a bit as they remembered the young women. But mostly they wept for the piece of them that is now missing.
DiSclafani just graduated from Garfield High School this year. Her cousin, Brittany Graff, wore DiSclafani's cheerleading jacket.
"She always made me smile, and I always looked up to her," Graff said. "I always wanted to be just like her."
Another cousin, Carly DiSclafani, said she lived life to the fullest.
"She was so fun, and she was so kind to everyone," she said. "It's terrible. We're broken. We don't know how to deal with it."
Police say it was around 1 a.m. Sunday when a white Ford Mustang flipped over several times and ended up in the near the Bergen Town Center Mall parking lot off of Route 4 in Paramus. All four occupants of the car were tossed from the vehicle. DiSclafani was killed almost instantly.
The other three victims, two Garfield women and a 23-year-old Paterson man, were rushed to the hospital. The other victim, whose family did not want her name used, (Mariah Gomez, 20) later died. The other woman remains hospitalized with serious injuries, while the man was treated and released.
The driver was identified as Jasmine Cruz, 23, who police say was intoxicated and operating the vehicle in a reckless manner. She is now charged with two counts of second-degree death by auto and DWI.
Yet another early a.m. drunk-related crash. Here we have Hispanic, black and white trash drinking and driving and not wearing seat-belts and dying and injured. Darwin's Theory at work here, the survival of the fittest. These young people were not fit to live responsible lives and they end up dying or injuring themselves for life. All of them come from broken or divorced homes with little supervision, looking for a quick "high" to get by in life. Learn and live.

GARFIELD, N.J. – Jennah DiSclafani, a 2017 Garfield High School graduate, died in a motor vehicle accident early Sunday morning.
A vigil was held Sunday night for DiScalfani and her best friend Mariah Gomez, 20, of Garfield, who also died in the drunk-driving rollover crash, according to multiple media reports.
The driver in the crash, Cruz, was charged Monday with two counts of death by auto and DWI, authorities announced.
DiScalfani, 19, excelled in track and was a cheerleader and softball player, reports say. Of course she got together with the wrong crowd, and she end up dying in the drunk-related car crash. Since she was injected, along with the other 3 drunks, from the speeding car, she was not wearing a seat belt and none of the other did. What a waste of young lives! They drink and drive and speed and do not wear seat belts. This is an example of what not to do!
A GoFundMe page has been set up to help DiScalfani’s family with funeral expenses.
“Please help us help this beautiful family bury their daughter,” the page states.

My Son Kevin yesterday told me that the policeman told him that the reason he survived was because he did not have the safety belt of the car because obviously the belt saves lives and is necessary but that in the case of my son was the opposite, just 1 % of this case was beneficial if you didn't have the belt and that was it! Thank the Lord that his divine hand was who intervened in this
