Starting point is 00:00:22 She's 26 years old and she's a Canadian woman who in 2019 was convicted of impaired driving that led to a massive explosion in London. Y'all might have forgot or never heard of Daniela, but she pled guilty to four counts of impaired driving and she was sentenced to three years in prison in 2021. Can I refresh your memory? Let's go to CTV News for the report, please. 22-year-old Daniela Lees faces a dozen charges connected to the blast that rocked the Old East Village mid-August. Lees faces charges including impaired operation over 80 milligrams causing bodily harm and four counts of criminal negligence causing bodily harm. On August 14th, emergency crews responded to the Woodman Avenue address for a collision. Once on scene, responders noticed the smell of gas and within minutes, the house exploded.
Starting point is 00:01:15 Police believe the vehicle hit a gas line when it collided with the home. Now, roughly 100 homes had to be evacuated and seven people were injured, including multiple first responders jesus christ uh well you know we live in a world where nobody holds themselves accountable for nothing okay nothing is never the fault of the person all right blame always has to go to someone else so daniella is blaming someone else for this. She's actually filing a lawsuit against Ovations Ontario Food Services,
Starting point is 00:01:48 alleging that the company shares some of the liability for civil lawsuits filed by the victims of the blast because they served her alcohol. Yeah, she's blaming it on the alcohol. I can't make this kind of stuff up. Let's go to CTV News for the report, please. The kitchener woman behind the wheel in an impaired driving crash that destroyed and damaged several homes in London is suing the company that served her at Budweiser Gardens that night. Daniela Lees is facing a number of civil lawsuits in relation to the August 2019 crash and says Ovations Ontario Food Services should share liability. Now, CTV's Krista Simpson is joining us now with more on this story.
Starting point is 00:02:26 Krista, before the crash, Lees was at a concert. Ricardo, the statement of claim says, among other things, the company served her alcohol, didn't monitor how much she was drinking, let her drink more than she should have, and ejected her from the venue without making sure she was not going to drive impaired. In October 2020, Lee's pleaded guilty to four counts of impaired driving causing bodily harm, ultimately being sentenced to three years in prison. Lee's lawsuit against Ovations Ontario Food Services says the
Starting point is 00:02:57 crash would not have happened if the company had not been negligent. You know, I came up in an era when drinking and driving was a choice okay you can drink or you can drive you can drive or you can drink but you cannot do both okay we had so many reminders not to drink and drive you know south carolina had the highways or dieaways commercials i don't know if they were national i think they might have been national virginia had to drive sober or get pulled over though it might have been national. Virginia had to drive sober or get pulled over. Those might have been national, too. I don't remember. But remember the buzz driving is drunk driving campaigns. I know Texas had the faces of drunk driving ads.
Starting point is 00:03:34 I mean, don't drink and drive was literally drilled into our brains since day one. Okay, not to mention this happened in 2019. All right, the ride share revolution Has been happening for a long time Okay, the Lyfts The Ubers of the world There was somebody you could have called, Daniela Now, don't get me wrong We know that some bars can be held liable
Starting point is 00:03:56 When they know a person is intoxicated And they keep serving them I don't know if this is one of those situations Okay, the lawsuit is saying that They knew she was intoxicated and did not train a supervised staff serving alcohol and put profit above safety. I don't know if all that is true. I don't know if all that is proven. All I know is that in a drunk driving case, the primary defendant is the drunk driver. OK, we live in a society where nobody wants to be held accountable for their actions it's always somebody else's fault she's better off saying the devil made me do it okay if you're gonna blame somebody blame satan lucifer beezlebub trump whatever you call the devil she
Starting point is 00:04:35 might as well have put the blame on that evil entity because all that is more believable and makes more sense but at the end of the day we are all accountable for ourselves simple as that accountability breeds responsibility so whenever you see someone doing something as irresponsible as daniella did it's because she's probably a human who has never been held accountable for anything she's ever done in her life okay that three years in prison she's serving right now is the first time she's probably ever been held accountable for her actions and of course she doesn't want to take full responsibility well kids always remember 99 of all failures come from people who have a habit
Starting point is 00:05:17 of making excuses safe to say daniella falls under that 99%. Please let Remy Ma give Daniela Lease the biggest hee-haw. Hee-haw, hee-haw. You stupid mother f***er. You dumb. All right. Well, thank you for the donkey of the day. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:05:36 The Breakfast Club. Donkey of the Day is brought to you by the law office of Michael S. Lamisoff. Don't be a donkey. Dial pound 250 on your cell and say the bull if you've been hurt in a construction accident. That's pound 250 from your cell and say the bull.
