Woman Dies In Car Crash While Posting How Happy ‘Happy’ Makes Her
She really liked the song “Happy” by Pharrell, until she died in a car crash while letting the world know about it.
At 8:33, Courtney Ann Sanford shared on her Facebook:
“The Happy Song makes me so HAPPY.”
At 8:34, the High Point Police Department was called with a report of the crash. Further investigation into Sanford’s online activity revealed she was also taking frequent selfies as she drove down the highway.
Sanford was letting her friends know how happy she was at that moment, and sadly that moment was one of her last.
