Woman gets life for Burger King drive-thru murder
Shala Parker won’t ever forget the night she watched her mother take her last breath after a woman ran her over in Denver Burger King parking lot.
“She had a blank stare and a single tear which I wiped away,” Parker said. “I bent down, kissed her and and told her she was beautiful and that she was going to be OK. I didn’t know those would be the last words I would say to my mom.”
On Thursday, Parker pleaded for justice for her mother, Lilian Verdonkschot, who was killed on May 29, 2009 after Nadine Montoya Carter ran her over in her Cadillac following a dispute in the drive-thru over a cigarette.
