Richland Township, PA - Sherry Ambolino, 41, must start hitting the bottle early, because by 9:30 Monday morning, she was tanked. Which might not have been a problem except that her child’s school called to tell Ambolino that her daughter was sick. So she loaded up the minivan with the four kids she was babysitting that day, including an infant, and drove on over to Richland Elementary to pick up her kid.
Now, I don’t know what Ambolino was drinking, but she was reeking of alcohol and “blowing liquor all over everybody”, according to police. School staff delayed Ambolino and called police, who arrived to find a very drunk parent, a sick kid, and the four Ambolino was babysitting. Ambolino was given a field sobriety test at scene and scored an epic fail.
This isn’t Ambolino’s first DUI, either. She ran the minivan (yep, same one) into a stop sign in nearby Quakertown on February 29. Police say she was drunk that day as well. Naturally, a man who spoke to reporters from Ambolino’s home says that “you don’t know her or what she’s going through”. Well, okay. I guess that’s way more important than what Ambolino’s child is going through now that everyone at school knows her mom’s a drunk. Way to straighten out those priorities and enable the addict, dude.
Sherry Ambolino has been charged with DUI (again). Police say that child endangerment charges may be forthcoming. I hope so. This woman needs rehab stat and no driver’s license maybe ever. Plus that mugshot is awesome considering it was taken before noon.

Apr 9, 2008 at 6:14 am -I jumped in my chair when the picture uploaded - fuck she is hideous, with jowl-town just a few years away. And an alcho called Sherry? Just poifect, nyuck-nyuck, except for the fragile little lives she was precariously gambling, in her drunk-drive sojourn to emancipate her sick kid from sober teachers.
I do know her and what she’s going through - about 4 bottles of vermouth a day while reminiscing about her fleeting popularity in high school, so long ago the memories are sepia-toned. Poor Shezza - where did it all go wrong, pumpkin?

No wonder we get all the crazy family members.

Apr 9, 2008 at 10:19 am -Are we sure this bitch didn’t get stung by a bee? Her entire face looks swollen. Ah, shit, I guess it’s probably just that she had been marinating for a little while already, and had soaked up a lot of liquid….
Do the parents of the kids she had in her van know that she endangered their little angels? If anyone ever put one of my kids in the car and drove drunk with them, they better HOPE they COULDN’T make bail. Because once they left the state run facilities, I’d be all over that person, like stink on shit. Protective custody would be the only way to keep the bitch alive long enough to stand trial.
As far as I’m concerned, DUI should be charged as attempted murder. You know the potential to kill or maim is there, but you do it anyway. What a stupid fucking bitch!

Apr 9, 2008 at 12:54 pm -You all make me sick. Not that I condone what Sherry did, but she is a very nice person and is going through some very hard times. Someone should take a look at her ex-husband and his antics. But since none of you appear to have a life and are only looking at the outside appearances, I won’t even bother to go into it!! You are all very shallow and are proably sitting home on your computers playing with yourselves, dreaming about a real life!!! Try Getting One!!!!!

Apr 9, 2008 at 12:59 pm -People go through hard times all the time. They don’t all get drunk and endanger the lives of children as a result. You friend may be nice, but she is weak and selfish. You and your comment, on the other hand, reek of stupidity and ignorance. You HAVE to be a teenager. There just isn’t any other excuse for it.

Disgusted
Apr 9, 2008 at 1:03 pm -I didn’t say it excused her behavior, and I did say I in no way condoned her behavior and no I’m not going to tell the details, her real friends know and are concerned for her welfare and that of her children even if she is not in any condition to care for herself. She is getting help and hopefully won’t read these nasty comments that others are making. Do people really think that ignorant words can help someone with an illness heal?!!!

Apr 9, 2008 at 1:08 pm -Who’s trying to heal her? I’m tying to use her as an example to all of the other drunk dumbshits out there that may be thinking about something stupid like this.
I’ll leave the healing to her “real” friends. Though I would think her “real” friends would never have let her put all those children in harms way to begin with. And her real friends would have also told her that her hairdo is very 1992 and she should think about collagen injections for her lips. That’s what I would do for my friends. Just sayin’.

Apr 9, 2008 at 1:42 pm -Who the FUCK said I gave two shits whether this bitch is healed or not? This ain’t a revival, sistah! I just want her her drunk, driving-five-kids-around ass in jail, thank you very much.
And you are a fucking moron if you think you will either: a) get any sympathy for this bitch from someone on this site, or b)change her habits just because YOU want them to change. She has to want to change….and from the looks of things from my perspective - she ain’t there yet, and may not ever want to be. I don’t give a rat’s ass if she wants to sit around and pickle her liver 24 hours a day, but leave the kids out of it! Idiots!

Did you warn the mothers? Probably not. And yes…. I am playing with myself right now. mmmm…. ahhhhh… ohhhh yessssss! Now that is the ticket.

Apr 9, 2008 at 2:22 pm -Seriously.
What time in the morning do you have to start drinking to reek of alcohol by 9:30? Say she starts at 7:00, when the last parent drops off a kid, but well before her child gets on the school bus. Yep, that’s awesome parenting right there. Then, instead of telling the school “I’m so sorry, my car is broken or or or (insert lie here), let me call someone to come get her” and SOBERING UP, she risks the very lives of her own child, plus four others, by driving to get her sick kid.
Nope, I really don’t care what she was going through. The February DUI should have been a wake-up call, but nope, she’s gonna start drinking for breakfast rather than getting herself some help. No sympathy here.
And i hope she DOES read here and it hurts like a bitch, because hitting bottom may be what it takes to wake her ass up and make her get help so she can effectively parent her child. She sure as hell can’t do it right now.

Apr 9, 2008 at 2:45 pm -“Do people really think that ignorant words can help someone with an illness heal?!!!”
Unless the fact that she’s “going through things” EXCUSES the fact that she endangered the lives of several children, our comments aren’t ignorant at all. Because, at the end of the day, no circumstance justifies her recklessness.
And I can’t fucking stand when people use the fact that the accused is “nice” as some sort of defense. Being nice isn’t a skill. Any Joe Blow can slap a smile on his face and pretend to give a fuck about the people around him. I’d much rather this bitch tell everyone she passes to fuck off and refrain from involving children in her death wish than what’s gone on instead.

As many here know I like to party a bit. I like to get happy on the weekend and don’t see alcohol as a morality issue. That said I will never drink and drive, put any kids in danger and not start drinking at 7 am.
That’s not a party it’s fucking sad. Stupid bitch, thank god everyone is okay. If I was one of those kids mom I would kick her ass like a cheerleader.

Thanks Angel. Nice cheer.
You are correct, have been in a few altercations. I would also like to add that they would have all had to pound on me at the same time cause I would have been going ape shit and loud as hell, swinging acting like a banshee. My swearing and screaming alone would have chilled them to the bone.

Apr 9, 2008 at 5:00 pm -She probably figured with the odds at 8 to 1, she didn’t stand a chance anyway. And she looked like the smallest one of them, too. She probably did the smartest thing she could in such a situation, duck and cover.
Confucius say: She who fights and runs away, lives to fight another day.
Chances are, if she had tried to fight back, they would have used that as a reason to beat her worse. It’s true what they say - it’s no fun beating a dead horse.

It is hard to read when you are “involved” but you need to look at it as if you are the outsider. The feelings you have when you see this horrible shit on the news………. It makes more sense then. Trust me. They aren’t assholes.

Sherry may be a nice person, hell Sherry may secretly be a fucking saint, but darling, Sherry is a goddamn drunk who needs help. She is so motherfucking lucky her drunk ass didn’t hit a car load of people. She is lucky she killed no one.
As someone else said…I believe it was Morbid (the boss)…a lot of people go through shit, sweetie, I believe more than a few of us here could probably write a fucking book, but you know what? We don’t get up and get drunk as fuck and drive around, risking other peoples lives.
Lastly can you actually see me rubbing my clit and fingering myself whilst reading about baby rapers and drunken bitches? Goddammit is nothing fucking private anymore?
