Labor Day Weekend Crash, Leaves Three Dead

Three Florida State University students were killed in a Sunday night accident at the intersection of Pensacola Street and White Drive.

The Tallahassee Police Department has confirmed the three victims as 22-year-old Vincenzo Libio, 21-year-old Morgan Carr and 21-year-old Kevin Boos.

TPD has also confirmed the identity of both drivers involved who were transported to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

According to TPD, 20-year-old Nikolas Bonilla was driving his white PT Cruiser when he attempted to turn onto White Drive from Pensacola Street.

That’s when witnesses said a black Dodge Challenger, driven by 27-year-old Stanley Jaboin, traveling at a high-speed hit the Cruiser on the passenger side.

Ralph Lockhart, a Palm Beach native, was heading to DJ a party nearby and was “fortunate” that night, because it could’ve been him.

“I was pulling out of the Shell gas station. Before I pulled out, something told me to hold on,” said Lockhart “That’s when I saw a white car pull out and get hit by a speeding black car.”

Lockhart quickly got out of his vehicle to assist the PT Cruiser, but all he could see was blood, smoke and what looked to be four “lifeless” bodies.

“When I got out to help them, I then realized that if they wouldn’t have pulled out then the speeding car would’ve hit me,” he said.

According to the WCTV, Libio wanted to work for the NFL.

“He was always joking around talking sports. He was a positive energy guy. He could cheer anyone up. I'm going to miss him," Matthew Orlinsky, an FSU student who worked with Libio at Brooklyn Water Bagel in College Town said.

This is not the first accident on Pensacola Street. Last November, 18-year-old Jackie Faircloth was seriously injured in a hit-and-run pedestrian accident.

Ariel Jones, a 22-year-old FAMU student, said she tries her best to avoid taken Pensacola Street because accidents are very common there.

“ The amount of traffic causes it to be accident prone,” said Jones “Especially the going down the hill passing the McDonalds and not knowing if the traffic is at a standstill. Everyone should be alert.”

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
