POLK CITY, Florida, USA – It’s 5:30 pm on November 9th, 2020 and 15-year-old Kimberly Stone is giving a statement to a detective of Florida’s Polk County.
She had been in a van with three other occupants when it was pulled over by police on a tip from a 911 caller that it was involved in a hit-and-run.
The two were speaking in the area of Berkeley Road and Denton Avenue, about seven miles or 11 kilometers south from the scene of the incident where an older woman was critically injured after being struck by the vehicle.
“I was curled up in the backseat,” Kimberly told the detective.
She said her boyfriend, who was the driver, and two other friends got into the van after visiting the home of Hunter Penton, a fellow student at Auburndale High School.
After putting the car in drive, she said her boyfriend took a left turn out of the spot they parked at, which was partially on the grass directly across the street from the home.
“That’s when Hunter’s mom walked out and we didn’t have time to stop,” an emotional Kimberly said during the seven-minute interview. “And the van, it just, it just hit her.
“I feel so bad because she would let me into her house and she fed me,” Kimberly said, referring to 52-year-old Suzette Penton. “And she was like my mom when my mom left me. And I just sat there and watched and I couldn’t do anything.”
She said they didn’t know in the moment whether to stop or keep going after realizing they had hit Suzette. But they kept going anyway.
Suzette was laying facedown and motionless on the pavement. She was rushed to Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center in life threatening condition with a fractured skull, severe brain bleeding and a broken leg. She was put in the intensive care unit.
Within the space of three weeks, investigators were able to quickly piece together the story of how this all happened.
Was it a freak accident or something more?
The answer to that question, according to investigators, would come relatively quickly.
That’s because the entire event – from beginning to end – was recorded.
