Woman Charged with Driving Under the Influence

A woman accused of driving under the influence has been charged in Leeds with the manslaughter of another woman.

According to police, the accident happened on February 3, just down the road from the Leeds Police Department, when Jennifer Nicole Schrencongost left her lane and ran head on into another vehicle in the opposite lane which resulted in the death of the driver, Meredith Jones who died at the scene.

According to police Schrencongost was driving under the influence of something other than alcohol although they did not specify what.

Having been charged, she was released on bond.

Jones’ mother is pleased that Schrencongost has been charged alleging that she knew she was impaired and used her vehicle as a missile to kill her daughter, which was, in her opinion the same as taking a gun and shooting her.
