Pregnant woman given heavy sentence for DUI crash that killed 3 after she boasted about driving recklessly
2023-11-24
[NYP] A Pennsylvania woman who tweeted boasts about her reckless driving minutes before killing two state troopers and a pedestrian on I-95 in Philadelphia was sentenced to decades in prison Wednesday.

Jayana Webb, 23, who is seven months pregnant received a sentence of 27 and-a-half to 60 years in prison after she pleaded guilty to three counts of third-degree murder and homicide by vehicle while driving under the influence.
"But I'm going to be a mother! You wouldn't want a child to grow up without a Mother's love, would you?"
I assume the Troopers and pedestrian also were parents?

Her attorney Mike Walker told the Philadelphia Inquirer that under the terms of her guilty plea she will remain free until she gives birth in February, after which she will be permitted to spend some time bonding with her child before reporting to prison.

Webb’s blood alcohol content was more than twice the legal limit at the time of the early morning crash on March 21, 2022.

The wreck claimed the lives of Pennsylvania State Troopers Branden Sisca, 29, and Martin Mack, 33, as well as Reyes Riviera Oliveras, 28, a pedestrian the troopers were helping get to safety off the roadway.
