"This mother essentially handed her 14-year-old son a deadly weapon, and despite multiple warnings of the dangers, continued to let him illegally ride an E-Motorcycle until he finally killed someone."
Tommi Jo Mejer, a California mother, is charged with involuntary manslaughter following the death of Ed Ashman, an 81-year-old veteran. Ashman was struck by Mejer's 14-year-old son riding an electric motorcycle. Prosecutors claim Mejer ignored warnings about her son's illegal riding. The incident occurred on April 16, when the son was performing stunts outside El Toro High School. Mejer faces multiple charges, including child endangerment and providing false information to law enforcement. E-motorcycles require licensing and registration if modified to exceed 20 mph, which applies in this case.
