Guess she isn't Wirth much...

The Gazette-Times reported today that Kelly Wirth filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection back in October, asking that the courts discharge $44,000 worth of debt, from a claimed total of $95,000 debt. She claims less than $6000 in assets. How does someone rack up that kind of debt without owning a home? Or is she not counting her home as an asset?

It's surprising to see the article in today's paper, as it is old news. The real Kelly Wirth news today is that Lisa Temple, the woman who mowed Ms. Wirth down with her car, pled guilty and will serve 70 months in prison. Ms. Temple read a personal statement at her sentencing that is rather hilarious.

Excerpts include:

Kelley Wirth is a victim, but also a self-involving predator that preys on vulnerable families struggling through adversity, and that family was mine.

I did act recklessly on Sept. 6, 2005 and did cause Ms. Wirth a great deal of physical pain and injury but the injuries I caused are only skin deep and will heal in time. The harm she has inflicted upon my life runs deep amd has torn through my heart and soul, stripping me of my innocence and time as well.

She does end the statement with an apology and an offer to pray for Kelly Wirth. I say the two ladies really deserve each other.
