"Family SUV plunged off a cliff - mom was drunk and her wife and adopted children were drugged"

dailymail.uk "Authorities have shared grisly details of the deaths of a family whose SUV plunged off a cliff in California, including how their bodies were retrieved and how the children had drugs in their system. The details were revealed at a coroner's inquest on Wednesday in a bid to determine whether the March 2018 deaths of Jen and Sarah Hart and their six adopted children were accidental, a murder-suicide or undetermined. The crash happened just days after authorities in Washington state, where the family moved in 2017 from Oregon, opened an investigation following allegations the children were being neglected. A neighbor of the Harts in Woodland, Washington, had filed a complaint with the state, saying the children were apparently being deprived of food as punishment. Jennifer was drunk when she drove her large family off a Northern California cliff, authorities said. Greg Pizarro, a forensic pathologist, testified on Wednesday that an autopsy found she had an alcohol level of 0.102. California drivers are considered drunk with a level of 0.08 or higher. Pizarro said her cause of death was a broken neck. Her wife, Sarah, and several children had large amounts of a drug in their systems that can cause drowsiness, authorities have said. The family's SUV plunged off a seaside cliff more than 160 miles north of San Francisco."
