Choices
My youngest son Wayne was riding with this brother Leon
Jr. Who's alcohol level was .17 and Wayne's was .11 and the friend in the back seat's was .23 all of them make a bad choice
to either get in the car and drive drunk or being drunk and getting in the car with Leon Jr. They each had ridden with each
other before and thought nothing of getting in the car with him this time.

This page was very difficult for me to add, but as Dustin and Tiffany's Mom, I do so want this message
to get out to all kids and adults. YES, IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU! My son was a very smart, young man and was an awesome
son and person, but on the early morning of Sept 27, 2007 he made one bad choice that affected his life and all those that
love him. The reason I say "CHOICE" is because at 18 Dustin told me "mom you taught me right from wrong and taught me what
not to do, using yourself as a bad example. I do understand that, but I am older and make my own choices and has nothing
to do with what you did or did not teach me". And as most kids he also thought it would never happen to him. So Please! Please!
Let Dustin's life and death make a difference in each and every one of your lives and think before making that BAD CHOICE!
Love to all from Dustin's Mother
LAKESIDE, Calif. -- A suspected drunken driving crash sent a car careening off an East County freeway and plunging
into a residential back yard Thursday, killing one passenger, injuring another and leaving the driver under arrest.
According to witnesses, the accident occurred as the speeding driver of a 2000 Ford Taurus tried to pass slower
traffic on westbound Interstate 8 in the Lakeview area shortly after midnight, the California Highway Patrol reported.
The driver, 27-year-old David Rhodes of San Diego, steered onto a dirt center median near Lake Jennings and
then lost control of the vehicle, which skidded across several lanes and struck a BMW sedan before veering off the freeway,
CHP public affairs Officer Brian Pennings said.
The Taurus overturned and rolled down a bank into a yard on El Dorado Parkway, Pennings said. Rhodes and his
two companions, none of whom was restrained, were ejected as the car tumbled down the slope.
One passenger, 25-year-old Dustin Rawls of Katy, Texas, died at the scene.
The other, a 20-year-old San Diego man, was taken to Sharp Memorial Hospital along with Rhodes for treatment
of moderately serious cuts, bruises, abrasions and other injuries.
Upon his release from medical care, Rhodes is expected to be booked on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter
and driving while intoxicated, Pennings said.
