Blog Entry: Kimberly Eide woke from a 24-hour drinking binge in jail, unsure what she had done. Her boyfriend broke the news in a phone call: Eide, 40, had driven her Dodge Durango into her 20-year-old son and her best friend in the parking lot of a Roanoke County Mexican restaurant where the three had lunched. There had been margaritas, tequila shots and an argument over pain pills. Things got out of control. Eide, locked in the Roanoke County-Salem Jail, remembered none of it, said her boyfriend, Chad Dooley. "I think it was just an accident," said Eide's son, Donovan Winland, who wasn't seriously hurt. "I don't even think she knew she hit anybody." Platform pumps Three days later, the news worsened. Eide's friend, Tara Rooksberry-Tyree, 28, died without regaining consciousness after she was run down by the SUV in the parking lot of the El Rodeo restaurant on Electric Road. First-degree murder was added to charges of driving under the influence, refusing a breath test and resisting arrest. Eide has suffered depression, migraine headaches, irritable bowel syndrome and other ailments for years, said Dooley, her boyfriend of three years. She recently had begun taking a new medicine for depression. Dooley and Winland said they blame the pharmaceutical cocktail, along with drinking and lack of sleep, for Eide's troubles. It wasn't the first time Eide blacked out, they said. The week before the restaurant clash, Eide landed in Botetourt- Craig County regional jail. She called Botetourt County sheriff's deputies to her trailer at Hollins Mobile Home Park on April 27 to arrest Dooley. He said he'd been sleeping while Eide partied next door on white Russian cocktails. She came home and called the sheriff because she wanted Dooley arrested. Deputies told her they had no reason to arrest Dooley and started to leave. Eide followed them outside, complaining, and ignored deputies' warnings to return to the trailer, Botetourt County Commonwealth's Attorney Joel Branscom said. The deputies charged her with being drunk in public. When they placed her in the back seat of the patrol car, she kicked the seats and doors and nearly booted a deputy in the face, Branscom said. Eide awoke in jail with no memory of the clash, Dooley said. "She'd blacked out that time, too," he said. A week later, Eide was free on bail. Winland suggested that he take Eide out for an early Mother's Day lunch. Rooksberry-Tyree came along. The two women had been up drinking all night, and into the afternoon, Winland said. They drank margaritas during lunch at El Rodeo. Before leaving, each took a shot of tequila, Winland said.

The three piled into Eide's silver SUV, with Winland at the wheel, Eide in the front passenger's seat, and Rooksberry-Tyree in the back. Eide turned around to grab Rooksberry-Tyree's purse, setting off another fight. The women got out of the vehicle, yelling at each other.
