Britt Reid's plea deal is a 'slap on the wrist,' mom of seriously injured girl says
The mother of a young girl who was seriously injured in a DWI crash involving former Kansas City Chiefs assistant coach Britt Reid slammed the plea deal he received in the incident.
Reid, the 37-year-old son of Chiefs head coach Andy Reid, pleaded guilty to felony driving while intoxicated resulting in serious physical injury on Monday. He could receive a sentence of up to four years in prison. He faced up to seven years in prison before the deal.
Felicia Miller, the mother of now 7-year-old Ariel Young who suffered a traumatic brain injury in the February 2021 crash, slammed the plea deal in an interview on "Good Morning America" on Wednesday.Ariel was in a coma for about 2 weeks, and when she woke up, her daughter did not know who her mother was and did not remember the crash.
"She didn't know who I was, so as I'm trying to touch my baby, like, 'Hey, baby,' she was, you know, moving away. She didn’t recognize me," Miller said.
