Driver Charged With Manslaughter in Brooklyn Crash That Killed a Mother And 2 Children
Briefly

A tragic car crash in Brooklyn led to the death of a mother and her two young daughters while their son was left critically injured. The driver, Miriam Yarimi, has been charged with multiple counts, including manslaughter and driving without a license. During a visit to the site, Mayor Eric Adams described the incident as a "tragic accident of a Shakespearean proportion." Commissioner Jessica Tisch emphasized the preventable nature of the crash, criticizing the system that allows dangerous drivers to remain on the road. Advocates are calling for legislative reforms to address reckless driving concerns.
"This was a horrific tragedy caused by someone who shouldn't have been on the road. A mother and two young children killed. Another child fighting for his life. A family and a neighborhood devastated."
"This is an unconscionable tragedy that Albany can stop from ever happening again. The status quo allows super-speeders to continue to put all our lives in danger."
