Following Drunken Wreck, Mission Viejo Students Wear White

Classmates show support for a Mission Viejo High sophomore who suffered serious injuries.

After a Mission Viejo High sophomore was hospitalized in a drunk driving accident, her classmates are showing their support Tuesday by wearing white.

Krista Moody and her family were recently hit by a drunk driver, according to a school announcement. While most of the family suffered only minor injuries, Krista's seat belt snapped during the crash, which led to more severe injuries in her case.

After spending about a week in the hospital, Krista has been released and continues to recover. She has not returned to school yet, the announcement said.
