I believe that's the backstory for how Garcia's parents died on Criminal Minds.

i agreed with mchristo — that sounds like Garcia.
Last night, I watched the new movie Countdown with my friends, and the main character's mom had died in a car crash while she was out looking for MC after she had snuck out. I SWEAR this is the exact same scenario as a TV show I've watched- a teenage girl snuck out of the house one night, and her mom (or maybe both of her parents?) went out looking for her when they were hit and killed by a drunk driver. Does anybody remember what show this may have been? Thank you!
