The nurse accused of killing five people last week when her Mercedes plowed into traffic at a busy Windsor Hills intersection had been involved in 13 previous crashes, Los Angeles County prosecutors alleged Monday in charging her with murder.
Authorities revealed new details about Thursday’s crash and about the driver, Nicole Lorraine Linton, 37, whose permanent address is in Texas and who is currently renting a room in Los Angeles while working as a traveling registered nurse.
Prosecutors said they are reviewing multiple previous crashes linked to Linton — both in and out of California — including one in 2020 that involved bodily injury in which two cars were totaled. They provided few additional details, however.
Linton’s attorney, Halim Dhanidina, asked the court Monday to continue her arraignment to October because he is reviewing her out-of-state history of “documented profound mental health issues.” Dhanidina did not elaborate on those issues but said the Windsor Hills crash could be linked to them.

An early adopter of the driverless vehicle.....
“...documented profound mental health issues...”
This woman going away for a long, long time.
It’s California, so maybe a couple of years..............
How was she even insured?
I have yet to read why she was going over 100mph straight into a line of traffic and there is somewhere on the net a freeze frame of her holding her cell phone out the drivers side of the window high up, and I wonder if she was filming it? Filming her suicide? They said she was arguing with her boyfriend but I’ve never seen an actual mention of that by her or a reputable source.
Her lawyer says she has a history of severe mental problems but that I also wonder about because if she did how did that company hire her as a nurse?
Clearly they should ban Mercedes.
I read she was coming from work where there was some kind of “incident” and she had been sent home. No details on that “incident”.
I didn't know stupidity was considered a mental health issue.
A BT-1000 who should’ve been stopped long ago. Another failure of the judicial system.
She needs to be executed. I’m pretty sure she did it purposefully. No different than her spraying a gun.
How does anyone obtain driver’s insurance at *any* price with that number of accidents caused by the driver?
Somebody from Texas will have to answer that question. I dunno...
Why are the mass media talking heads not calling this an Assault Mercedes?
A law abiding asking to speak at a school board meeting probably gets more thoroughly vetted.
...had been involved in 13 previous crashes...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So.... she had numerous attempted suicide efforts previously, because that most certainly was what this was. What else could it be?
“How was she even insured?”
Yes, did she even have a license, let alone be able to get insurance?
If Moochelle had a sistuh....
