"That was my only baby, so I'm mad, and I'm sad, and I'm going to be sad forever," said Rosado-Colon's mother, Sandy Colon. "I want to know, who is on one lane and tries to cross over to exit, if that was the case? Of course, I have a bunch of questions. Where are they? Why aren't, they in custody?"
