He took a deep breath, walked to the podium and told his story to an auditorium full of high school students.He was one of four young people, including Bryan Porter, Joe Trombetta and Kelly O'Connor, who shared what happened after they had caused the deaths of friends, children or individuals whom they had never met during a Safe Teen Driving Assembly held at Analy High School on May 19.Their message to teens was clear: drive safely or you could be like us, waking up every day of your life thinking about the people who aren't here anymore and the families who are missing them - because of your irresponsible choices. ....
