Texas housewife was showing off new $150K Porsche when she drunkenly smashed into man on date, passenger says

A joy-riding Houston housewife was showing off her new $150,000 Porsche when she drunkenly mowed down a man on a date, one of her passengers revealed.

Arllette Reyes told jurors at the manslaughter trial against Kristina Chambers that she met up with Chambers at a bar before getting in the car with her for a terrifying ride that ended with the death of Joe McMullen on April 20, 2023.

Chambers blames her Christian Louboutin heels for the crash, claiming they slipped and caused her to accelerate into McMullen, who was leaving a donut shop on a first date.

At Lola’s Depot, a dive bar, Chambers told Reyes about about how she was an influencer and that her hedge fund manager husband purchased a Porsche 911 Carrera for her for $149,000 just two months earlier, Reyes recounted.

“I was hoping I could get a ride in it,” Reyes told jurors, according to the Houston Chronicle.

Chambers flaunted her wealth to her pals, living in a $1.6 million, modernist McMansion with husband Xuan Si. He filed for divorce after her arrest.

So Reyes, Chambers and a third friend got in the sports car and Chambers floored it for a short ride to her home.

But the alleged drunken driver — who had gone restaurant and bar hopping that night — was going so fast she missed a turn and careened into oncoming traffic, Reyes testified.

“I was praying or wondering why I was there,” the witness said.

Reyes recalled seeing a man and a woman standing on the sidewalk as the car was headed toward them.

I object to the article referring to her as a "housewife".

She might have been a wife, but she was no housewife.

Sadly she is a modern woman who murdered a man with her car.

She will not receive anywhere near what she deserves because of this. Our injustice system only gives them a third or less of the sentence they give men for the same crimes.

And she doesnt take responsibility for her action even now. Blaming her shoes.

I’ve owned several, you don’t have to use everything they have, every time.
A BAC of .30 is highly not a recommended feature.

Whoever wrote this article is terrible at writing and should go learn how to code or something.

“She faces between up to 20 years behind bars if convicted.”

Yeah, but if she were only one of our precious minorities she would only be facing 3 yrs probation and a little community service. Since she's a white broad, lock her up, right liberals?

He will be driving a ten year old Honda Civic for about a decade.

Yeah, I always like to change into Pradas when I'm getting into a 180 mph car with a blood alcohol of .301%. It's much safer.

He filed for divorce after her arrest. Hope she gets nothing.
