Impact: After The Crash

I was 11 years old when the Carrollton bus tragedy occurred in 1988. It dominated the news here in Kentucky for a long time & rightfully so. At the time it was the deadliest drunk driving crash in U.S. history...a statistic that still remains true today.

 "Impact: After the Crash" tells the story of a church youth group's trip to a Southern Ohio amusement park, the accident that occurred on their way home, the 27 people who passed away, & the survivors that made it.

 The only thing I wish this film had, was more on Larry Wayne Mahoney, the drunk driver who caused the accident. Unfortunately, he refused several inquiries from the film's makers to participate in the documentary.

And yes...he is out of prison...having only served 10 of the 16 years he was sentenced to. I HIGHLY recommend checking this out.

 4 / 5 stars
