>Taylor had been outside the house hosting the afterparty when Shirah struck him with his SUV. The newlyweds then reportedly left the scene and did not report it to police until the next day His new wife was with him. This leads to some awfully fucked up mental images of them fleeing the scene.

She will be charged as an accessory later this month. They both got a "new chapter" in their lives, just a bit different from what they planned.

I believe the article said *she will be sentenced* later this month. > Shirah’s wife is tentatively scheduled to be sentenced on 26 May for serving as an accessory to the crime. Collier, 23, pleaded no contest in April.

Looking like she’ll probably avoid prison time so long as she completes probation. She wasn’t driving but I still can’t imagine not saying anything immediately and waiting until the next day! Just married, bought a house and just like that, that life is over, they’ll live another day at least unlike their victim!

I will say, regardless of anything else, it's kind of crazy to leave an argument so you can go get your car to run your best friend down. This wasn't "I punched him and he fell and hit his head". It was way more insane than that. Edit: Also this part, >They did not disclose what the argument had been over. I think they should have made him say.

I just can’t imagine getting black out drunk at your wedding and you wake up in jail because you murdered your friend and don’t remember it. Holy shit

amateur_mistake May 12, 2026 +409
It's kind of interesting because I know very well what my blacked-out self does. He calls a cab home. Every time. Basically immediately. Sometimes when he gets home he will cook soup from scratch. Although, it's been a long time since I blacked out. So maybe he's changed. It's got to be pretty terrible to have your blackoutself be a murderous sociopath. Edit: I am very much enjoying everyone's descriptions of themselves when they are blacked out. Jealous of the person who cleans their house without remembering it.

surnik22 May 12, 2026 +245
Some people seem to have some deep seated tendencies towards violence that comes out when their inhibitions are lowered whether just drunk or blackout drunk. Personally, I have a deep seated desire to eat tacos and I will walk multiple miles to get them before going home to eat them. Besides some acid reflux, seems to work out much better.

I’ve only been blackout a couple of times, but once I woke up and could NOT, for the life of me, find my wallet or keys. I was staying at my then-boyfriend’s apartment and it was within walking distance to my work, so no biggie, just left my car in the parking lot. Later that day I called him to ask if he knew where I put my wallet the night before. He said, “yeah, in the refrigerator. With your shoes.”

girlinthegoldenboots May 13, 2026 +5
I have only been blackout once and apparently I made everyone play Harry Potter trivial pursuit with me, won handily, and tried to make everyone koolaid that I called Superman juice (I was apparently very worried everyone was thirsty)

Eclectophile May 12, 2026 +41
I've only been black out drunk once. It was scary and surreal to not remember a single thing. Evidently, I was polite, friendly, courteous and I walked a couple of my Dad's friends home, and then ran an errand for one, then read a book and went to bed. lol. Quite the party animal.

bros402 May 12, 2026 +33
f***, it'd be so annoying to read a book and not remember where you left off because you were blackout drunk while reading it

That was pretty annoying, actually. Deja vu the entire book, but not really knowing if I'm just imagining it or what.

Tirras May 12, 2026 +7
I was the same way. I thought if I just focused enough, or had people describe what I did, it would make me remember. Then I found out your brain has turned that part off and there's nothing for you to do a deep recall of. Everyone said I was just a more drunk me, no horror stories, nothing to regret, abut not being able to recall even a single second of recognition was deeply unsettling.

She ended up breaking up with her boyfriend and tbh im not sure what happened to him, we never hung out with him again. It was back when I was in college and had a very messy friend group. The best and worst part of our friendship was that we all were the same level of toxic so we were always in sync and had the same limits, even if they weren’t the most pristine of standards lmao. Think of a toned down Jersey Shore type of toxic mess.

It's been years, but the last I checked, my black-out self also called a cab and then maybe ate taco bell. I've never gotten anywhere close to this.

The cleaning edit reminds me of college. I lived in our frat's house, where we had Sunday chapter meetings each week. One Saturday night we came home from the bars and the house was spotless, setup with all the chairs for meeting, with a mop bucket and our buddy Mitch passed out drunk on the couch. Mitch blacked out so hard he deep cleaned the living room/kitchen and prepared for meeting 18 hours early.

inosinateVR May 12, 2026 +29
One time I blacked out on the way to a bar, woke up the next day safe in my bed (the last thing I remembered was walking in the direction of a bar after pregaming pretty hard with my friend). But my phone was full of missed calls because my friend was supposed to sleep on my couch that night. Apparently shortly after we got to the bar, I stood up and said “I need to leave” and just left without saying anything else. My friend stayed and waited for the friends we were meeting there and then tried to come back to my place later but I had locked the door and didn’t wake up to his knocking or phone calls. I simultaneously felt so terrible and guilty about locking my friend out, but also so proud of my blacked out self for apparently recognizing that I was too far gone and needed to get home safely asap

The last time I got blackout drunk (8 years ago) I broke my best friend's jaw (over a woman) and he threw me off a third floor balcony. I broke 7 bones in that fall. I managed to get dry and clean, he died four years later in a shooting in Cambodia, while high or drunk, no doubt.

TheWildTofuHunter May 12, 2026 +6

It was a wedding. Weddings are stressful, families hate each other, and everybody gets drunk as f***. Honestly, it could've been a million things. I wouldn't be surprised if it was nothing at all! I don't think I've ever been to a wedding where somebody hasn't wanted to beat the shit out of somebody, and I've been to a few where people have tried. It's pretty much always because somebody is being a drunken a******.

None of them do. The victim was obviously unable to tell the story and the other guy never said and pleaded no contest. So I'm not sure it's ever going to come out.

Samski877 May 12, 2026 +333
Cases like this are always disturbing because it sounds like such a minor argument or moment of anger and then someone ends up dead over it. The part that gets me is how many lives get destroyed at once. Obviously the victim and their family first, but also everyone connected to the wedding who now has this attached to their memories forever.

Aliensinmypants May 12, 2026 +66
Yup, I had a friends brother pull on a gun on me over an argument about f****** beer pong. Instantly sobered me up, and realized I almost lost everything because of a f****** drinking game, sure it was absolutely his fault for escalating, but being right doesn't prevent death

Yes - a relatively minor argument can spiral. I'm guessing there was alcohol involved, long wedding day, and if anyone already has a short temper that can be a bad combination.

SofieTerleska May 13, 2026 +5
She'd probably say that while the ceremony took place and the couple are technically entitled to keep them, their families would probably be better off returning all those gifts to the donors since the newlyweds won't be using them and it's a polite acknowledgement that things didn't go as planned. However, she would also caution the gift giver against expecting this or, worse, demanding it, as the couple's families clearly have a lot on their plates and they may not even know who gave what anyway.

If his first reaction to getting in a fight with him was to run him over with his car then I don't think he was your best man.

Let's see if there's a nice positive story about my home state today.....oh, fantastic. And both groom and blushing bride left him there, covered in blood, and absquatulated. The victim had four children and a fiancee. It smells like more than alcohol was being consumed. At any rate, I wouldn't call it a fairy-tale wedding.

why do the judges feel the need to coddle these murderers? > Shirah, I believe that you are not a criminal,” Judge Khary Hanible said. “You are, however, a killer.” i’m sorry, but what’s the definition of a criminal if it doesn’t include murderer?

I always assume if they react nonchalantly to stuff like this that it's because they see a lot of really really darker shit that's under publication bans.

Might've had an otherwise clean criminal record, but this is his first series of convictions. Still, the complete disregard for his victim's life sealed his fate.

In other MI news - we just had an 18 year old shoot and kill a 15yr old and a 30-something woman over a f****** soccer game. We are not okay.

I looked that up … holy **** that is a tragedy. 39 yo mother of eight killed while protecting a teen. Hope they lock that 18 yo up for the rest of his life. Let him die in prison, and never play soccer again.

>who he ran over with a sport-utility vehicle during an argument on 30 August 2024. That's almost two years to sentence a guy who they got dead to rights, who pled no contest (I think). A slam-dunk of a case, and it is still two years to sentencing. A more complex case with the defendant having access to money and political clout can be expected to take longer. >After pleading no contest in April, Shirah was sentenced in connection with three felony charges: second-degree murder, operating with a suspended license, causing death and failure to stop at a scene of an accident when at fault, resulting in death. Wait. His license was suspended at the time?

“They did not disclose what the argument had been over” I bet it was over pineapple on the pizza /s

If pineapple is his groomsman, and pizza is his wife, you might have something there.

She, the wife of the killer, was in the car that hit the groomsman and then left the scene and didn't report in till the next day so accessory to the murder at least. Also sounds like she was part of the argument.

Hopefully the new husband and wife won't be able to breed. Need to stop that family tree before it sprouts. (Read the whole story to understand. She's set to be sentenced as an accessory to murder.)

*“Mr Shirah, I believe that you are not a criminal,” Judge Khary Hanible said. “You are, however, a killer.”* Weird thing to say? *”After the wedding, \[Taylor\] was involved in an argument, which led to him being* ***intentionally struck by a large SUV that was traveling at a high rate of speed,****” police said. They did not disclose what the argument had been over.* Sounds pretty criminal to me…
