The long, slow California crawl towards justice. I would expect an actual trial to finally happen in 3-5 years. JMO.

Thanks for bringing this case forward. I googled the case and there is absolutely no news since Nov 2022. Very frustrating- only good thing is that she did not get bond so she sits in jail. You wonder how long it will take for this case to meander thru the justice system, to finally see the light of day.

I honestly think it might be safer for her in jail. Those six people have relatives.

I followed this cas early on but it dropped out of the news. I thought I'd check in now and then to see where it stood. I can't believe it's not at trial yet. Wouldn't she have to wave her right to a speedy trial fo rit to go on this long? At the time it looked like she was delusional and was going to take it to a horrible end, but she unexpectedly survived. Thank you to all who are keeping the thread going and up to date.

Unfortunately trials in Los Angeles County take a VERY long time. They can litterally take years.

I think these kind of cases can take years to go to trial in any state. This is a murder case and it hasn't even been a year yet since the crash. I don't expect it to start anytime soon.

I'm just relieved that she's in jail with no bond, and not behind the wheel of another car. The city is safe from her particular form of mayhem.
