Haste Makes Waste


I am not the greatest writer but I read pretty good. This opening sentence is difficult to understand and too long. 



Opening sentence:
"The right hand of a Curry College junior killed late Friday night in a car prosecutors said a friend was driving drunk on their way home from a wedding still had “a tight grip” on the passenger door handle when first responders found her, according to a report of the fatal crash released this afternoon."

Easier to read and to understand.
