Mom accused of helping son in drive-by shooting

Mail.com

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A Utah woman is accused of driving her teenage son by a convenience store to shoot at rival gang members he had been fighting with at school.

Prosecutors said Lisa Egersdorf picked up her 17-year-old son from his Salt Lake City school and was behind the wheel when he fired several shots at the group. Charging documents show she asked, “Did you get them?” after he fired at their car. No one was hurt in the Sept. 22 drive-by shooting.  

Police said Damian Garcia yelled “Mom, they just jumped me,” when and he and his friends got into his mother’s car in the school parking lot after the fight. She responded, “It’s all right, we’re going to get them,” according to charging documents.

One of the shots hit a woman’s car after she stopped at the 7-Eleven in the middle-class neighborhood. Egersdorf later told investigators she and her son are part of the same gang, police said. She acknowledged driving Garcia by the 7-Eleven, but denied the shots came from her car, according to jail records.

Garcia was charged with 10 felonies, including aggravated assault and six counts of firing a gun. His mother was charged with 10 felonies and three misdemeanor counts of reckless endangerment. She has a history of convictions on assault, criminal mischief and contributing the delinquency of a minor charges, according to court records.

The Associated Press doesn’t usually name juveniles charged with crimes, but it is using Garcia’s name because he has been charged as an adult. Court documents indicate prosecutors did so because Garcia is older than 16 and has prior convictions.

No attorney has been listed in court records for Egersdorf or her son, and they could not be reached by The Associated Press.

  1. All in the family isn’t that cute. And there are those that say there are no family values anymore! Keep letting the gangs in with open borders,what could possibly go wrong? If Ebola don,t get you a bullet is a real possibility to now days along with the fact that they are trying as hard as they can to take away your means if defending yourself against this trash. Oh sorry didn’t mean to offend that trash!

  2. Funny how this “Utah woman” doesn’t look like the typical Utah resident, and in fact, doesn’t look like an American at all.

    She’s just one of the “dreamers'” who came here for a better life, and her life became a lot better now that she has the ability to shoot up the entire neighborhood in her teenage son’s turf war.

    Americans are going to learn the hard way that these Mexicans and South American wetbacks are of a culture that’s very different than ours. They molest their own children and brag about it, and they’ll kill anyone over any petty dispute.

    But of course, that’s not possible in our “global village” where everyone’s equal and politically correct. I don’t care. Everyone was warned, and they decided to ignore or deny everything that’s important in favor of clinging to their TV god’s pretty-sounding false reality.

    After spending more than a decade trying to wake these fools up, only to be attacked by the people I was hoping to save, I have no problem watching them suffer for their gullibility. If you’re still believing the crap that’s on TV news, I hope a gang of wetbacks rapes your daughter next, because that’s the only way you’ll pull your head out of your ass. Everything else has been tried.

  3. As sad as it is you are so right JR. A real roll model this one is. They need to be deported with a .230 grn hollow point.

  4. Can you just picture this woman and her son getting on the O’bola freedom plane 4 months ago and were asked “where would you like to go?….New York….LA…..Miami?” Then she says…”I don’t know …what’s a good place to live”? Then the pilot says “Why don’t you try Utah”!
