PURITANICAL PRIGS JAIL MOM FOR 27 MONTHS FOR SERVING ALCOHOL TO TEENS
DANIELA DEANE, WASHINGTON POST - Ryan Kenty, 20, and his brother
Brandon, still a sophomore in high school, plan to drive their mother to
jail Monday morning before heading back to her rented apartment to move
the rest of her belongings into storage.
Their mom, Elisa Kelly, and her ex-husband, George Robinson, are paying
the price for hosting Ryan's 16th birthday party -- more than two years
in jail each. Ryan had asked his mother to buy his friends some beer and
wine, as long as they all spent the night.
"No one left the party," said Kelly, 42, who collected car keys that
night almost five years ago to prevent anyone from leaving. "No one was
hurt. No one drove anywhere. . .
Kelly and Robinson -- the boys' stepfather -- were charged with nine
misdemeanor counts each of contributing to the delinquency of a minor
resulting from the August 2002 backyard birthday bash. Both were
originally sentenced to eight years, but the sentences were reduced to
27 months. The case was appealed to the Virginia Supreme Court and then
the U.S. Supreme Court, which recently declined to hear it. . .
The couple initially were charged with 16 misdemeanor counts, but seven
of the partygoers had no alcohol in their systems. Of the nine who did,
all were below the legal limit for intoxication, according to Wren.
