Brooklyn driver indicted for manslaughter after fatal collision that killed a mother and two children in Midwood
Briefly

A Brooklyn driver, Miriam Yarimi, was indicted for manslaughter after allegedly causing a fatal collision that killed Natasha Saada and her two young daughters in Midwood. Yarimi, driving on a suspended license, faces serious charges, including second-degree manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide. The crash occurred when she sped through a red light at 68 mph in a 25 mph zone, resulting in devastating injuries and fatalities. Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez emphasized the reckless nature of the act and affirmed the commitment to hold Yarimi accountable.
This horrific fatal crash was one of the worst I've seen in over 25 years as a prosecutor, Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said. It wasn't an accident. This defendant's unconscionably dangerous driving wiped out a family.
Yarimi, who was driving with a suspended license, faces multiple counts of second-degree manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide, second-degree assault and other related counts.
Video surveillance shows her car drive straight through a red light a block before the crash, narrowly avoiding other cars and continuing north on Ocean Parkway.
The Audi was traveling full throttle suggesting the gas pedal was floored at about 68 miles per hour in a 25-mile-per-hour zone.
