Summary
Lisa Vaughan, 45, and Aubrey Vaughan, 55, were charged after Fairfax County police said an underage party at their McLean home drew 100 to 300 teens, fireworks and multiple 911 calls on Nov. 6.
A gathering meant for 10 to 20 eighth-grade classmates spread on Snapchat to local high school students, the couple and their attorney said, turning the backyard event into a crowd they could not control.
Police responded around 9:03 p.m., and the parents later turned themselves in and were released on $1,000 unsecured bonds each; police have not announced charges against any teenagers.
Aubrey Vaughan denied alcohol was allowed, said the invitation banned alcohol and bags, and apologized to neighbors, while Fairfax County's police chief said hosting teen parties at home is "universally a bad idea."
