A woman who pleaded guilty to pushing her 16-year-old friend from a bridge at a popular swimming area near Vancouver broke down in tears after she was sentenced on Wednesday to two days in jail and 38 days on a county work crew.
Clark County District Court Judge Darvin Zimmerman sentenced 19-year-old Tay'lor Smith on Wednesday, saying she should do some jail time in light of Jordan Holgerson's serious injuries.
Smith pleaded guilty earlier this month to misdemeanor reckless endangerment as part of a plea agreement.
Smith pushed Holgerson off the bridge Aug. 7 at Moulton Falls northeast of Vancouver.

Video posted on YouTube that was widely viewed shows Holgerson being pushed.
The 50-foot fall broke Holgerson's ribs, caused severe bruising and punctured her lungs.
Footage of the ordeal, which quickly went viral, showed Jordan standing on top of the bridge with a group of friends gathered behind her

In court Wednesday she said she's still dealing with physical therapy, pain, anxiety and panic attacks.
Holgerson started to cry during her statement to the judge and an advocate then read it for her, saying Holgerson was terrified when she was pushed and when she was in the water thought she was going to die.
'We feel lucky today that she is alive,' Genelle Holgerson told the judge of the incident involving her daughter, adding that she'd like to see some jail time.
'It has cost me and my family lost wages not to mention stress and heartache.'
Smith apologized to Holgerson in court saying Holgerson has been in her thoughts and that she has and will continue to do her best to right her wrongs.
She broke down in tears when a deputy handcuffed her and led her out of the courtroom.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
