"I accept full responsibility for my actions."
"This defendant is a reckless driver who cared about only herself when she raced in the streets of Brooklyn and wiped away nearly an entire family,"
"There's a lot of sorrow and pain, remorse, regret I feel in my heart for causing such an unspeakable tragedy,"
"I hope and pray that my guilty plea, as well as my sentencing here today, will provide some degree of closure to the victims and their family members for all of the pain and suffering that my actions."
Miriam Yarimi, 33, pleaded guilty to three counts of reckless manslaughter for a March crash in Midwood that killed Natasha Saada, 34, and her daughters Diana, 8, and Deborah, 5. Yarimi was sentenced to 3 to 9 years in state prison after admitting responsibility. Yarimi sped through the intersection at nearly 70 mph, struck a turning Toyota, then hit the family crossing Ocean Parkway after Shabbat services; the car flipped and came to a stop about 130 feet away. Philip, 4, was critically injured. Yarimi was driving on a suspended license and prosecutors had sought a longer term.
