Ariel Young's Mom: Your Apologies Will Not Change My Daughter Future!

Former NFL coach heads to the iron college for a 2021 DUI crash that badly injured a girl.

Privileged son of NFL coach now is a convicted felon. This asshole is the son of Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid. 

He will spend three years in the iron college, have his license permanently suspended and be footed the bills for a 5-year old girl who was severely injured.

This asshole pled guilty to driving while intoxicated and causing an accident on Interstate 435 which seriously injured Ariel Young. Her mom's vehicle was on the shoulder when this asshole under the influence crashed into the vehicle.

The impact was so bad, it nearly killed Ariel.

Ariel’s mother, Felicia Miller, submitted a statement read by prosecutors in open court.

“On the cold night of February 4, 2021 – one of us was on the side of the road, broken down, trying to get to a minimum-wage job while Britt Reid was at work, preparing to go to the Super Bowl,” wrote Miller.

Ariel's life forever changed.

Felicia explains how Ariel’s life is forever changed by that night. Her daughter drags her right foot when she walks and will soon see a doctor about leg braces. Ariel has poor balance. She’s in special education classes because she takes longer to process information. She also wears thick glasses that she didn’t need before.

Eventually, Ariel came out of the coma, but the long-term extent of the injuries came into focus.

"When she woke up, Ariel didn’t go home," Miller said. "She tried to relearn how to walk and talk and eat before we left the hospital. But she couldn’t. She couldn’t run in the yard anymore like the sweet, innocent Ariel we had known."

“This is not a game. This is not a Chief’s game. This is our life,” wrote Miller.


Miller said the asshole does not deserve any deal and he should face the maximum sentence for what happened to Ariel.

“He’s a prior felon. He has a prior DUI. He’s been to prison. And he’s asking for probation? On what planet does this conduct deserve probation? Can people really get drunk and give a five-year-old a brain injury and think they should get probation?” wrote Miller.

Miller makes it clear that the asshole’s apology is not accepted and details the hell the family has been through.

Five family members were injured in the crash. Ariel received the most attention because her injuries were so extensive.

Ariel didn’t wake up for two weeks and had to learn how to walk, talk and eat. She cried in her wheelchair. So, her mother would carry her 5-year-old around like a newborn.

Ariel continues to suffer from motion sickness and threw up in the car every time she drove to therapy.

Her mother points out that while that the asshole’s family has made a living off of sports, Ariel will never be able to play. This asshole took everything from her.

The mother ended her statement by thanking Mothers Against Drunk Driving for support and thanked people across the world for their prayers saying they felt them.
