He was booked on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence.

Another student, Bridget Thompson, called Asha"My guidance and my strength. She was everything I wanted to be. Confident, gentle and kind. Last week, Asha brought me back my favorite flowers simply because she knew I'd enjoy them." Senior Coco Crandall said, ''Peyton's kindness illuminated every room she walked into.'' Of the four deceased students, she said,"I should have been with them. That was the one time I wasn't" and"They deserved so much better than what this earth has to give. I love you, my four angels. Thank you for bettering me."
