Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #1016 Story of the Week: Published TUESDAY December 2, 2025: ‘A Family Shattered: Grief Never Dies’ from ZUMA represented Pulitzer winner Renee C. Byer staff at The Sacramento Bee: When 21-year-old Andrew ‘Drew’ Pringle was killed by a driver who ran a red light in Rosemont, California in 2023, his mother and sisters were devastated and the legal system’s muted response only deepened their grief. The driver who hit Drew received eight months in jail. Sacramento County did not change the intersection. To his family, it felt as though California had treated his life as expendable in a state where more than 1,000 pedestrians die yearly. Drew’s sister Erika carries her grief into action. She organized the region’s first Capitol vigil for World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims, and speaks publicly to demand stronger responses to fatal crashes. To the Pringles, Drew was a gentle, goofy, sentimental young man whose loss reshaped every corner of their lives. To the systems that shape California’s roads, he became another preventable death, one his family refuses to let be forgotten. Welcome to ‘A Family Shattered: Grief Never Dies’
