Two teenagers were charged today following the drunk driving death of Glastonbury's Jane Modlesky.
Two Glastonbury teenagers were arrested today for allegedly allowing an extremely drunk 17-year-old girl to drive a car, which she later crashed and died.
On July 14, 17-year-old Glastonbury High student Jane Modlesky – who's blood alcohol level was 13 times over the legal limit – crashed a 2008 Honda Pilot into a tree on Woodhaven Road and died.
