Maravi dove in front of the vehicle to try to shield Floyd from harm. He said he does not remember exactly what happened next, but his mother Jenny Garces said investigators determined Maravi flipped up onto the windshield after the initial impact and Floyd was flung about 50 feet from the vehicle.
“It took me having to go down to Case Management and blow a fuse with the receptionist who just continued to tell me that, ‘Well, Case Management is dealing with other situations that are very important right now,'” Kelly Floyd said. “I said, ‘Yeah, I heard that from the last lady and I’m telling you right now this is very pressing.’ Two kids, two students, almost died and nobody has contacted us.
The day the two mothers visited the Case Management office happened to be the last day students could withdraw this semester while still being eligible for a full refund. The Floyds applied for the medical exception, but rather than taking the chance of still having to pay a semester’s worth of college expenses, they decided to fully withdraw Jasmine Floyd from the university.
“This was her dream school since she was 14, and she might have to reapply even though she’s the same student,” Maravi said. “Like it’s not our fault that he was driving drunk.”
