Looked her up... writer of the story obviously isn't native English speaker (if she is, she has issues), but at least there is a little more description/info (if you can decipher it):

"by Sylvia Quarles August 5, 2022"
"LOS ANGELES (AP) – Authorities have arrested a driver after he [sic] allegedly rammed other vehicles at a crowded intersection through a red light on Thursday, killing a pregnant woman, a child and a child [sic]. Three other adults died in the horrific accident.

The California Highway Patrol said Friday that Nicole Lorraine Linton, who suffered minor injuries in the collision, was detained on suspicion of vehicular homicide with gross negligence. Charges are expected to be filed with prosecutors.

The coroner’s office on Friday identified one of the victims as Asheri Ryan, a 23-year-old pregnant woman from Los Angeles. Her unborn child was listed in the online coroner’s records as “Baby Boy Ryan”.

Two other women and a man as well as a boy died, but their names were not made public on Friday.

According to the California Highway Patrol, shortly after 1:30 p.m. Thursday, a Mercedes-Benz sedan drove six cars near a gas station in unincorporated Windsor Hills, about 10 miles (16 kilometers) southwest of Downtown LA. involved causing the accident."

"Several people got out of the cars and two vehicles caught fire. Television reports showed black and damaged cars as well as a child’s car seat among the rubble lying on the road.

The video shows Mercedes driving through an intersection, hitting at least two cars that burst into flames and are sent onto a sidewalk that was curving against a gas station corner sign . Flames blew up a car. One vehicle was half damaged.

CHP officer Franco Pepi said the car was speeding at least 50 mph (80 kph) as it was passing through a crowded intersection. Eight people, including Linton, were taken to the hospital.

It was not immediately clear if Linton, 37, had a lawyer who could comment on her behalf."

I still haven’t seen the identity of that murderer. She must be a protected species. The article said the car was doing at least 50? It was going a hell of a lot faster than that.

I would guess closer to 70 than 50.

She was anti-gun.

This is how suicides are done without firearms.

Thanks as always for providing a Rumble link.

What I found really bizarre about that video was how the other drivers on the road just kept on going like this was perfectly normal. I guess they had places to be.

I generally try to understate, but it sounds believable. In a just society this would be a capital offense, but I doubt she’ll even get life without parole.

“The woman driver did it ON PURPOSE.” True. The driver had a death-wish which is not reasonable, not proper and not productive. I wonder how the interview went between the driver and the Lord.

80 to 100 I’d guestimate, but clearly at suicide speed.

Easily 100mph... evident in the video

“That is true except in this case the driver was a home grown POS Nicole Lorraine Linton age 37”

Nurse, I believe ICU. She should do the right thing. I’ll donate the belt.

More than six.

Their families as well.

I cannot fathom why someone who wants to commit suicide insists on taking others with them.

She could have just driven into a bridge abutment or something.

Too bad they did away with the death penalty. They could have granted her wish.
