Drunk Driver Pleads Guilty To Car Crash That Killed 3, Including Pennsylvania Troopers
A drunk driver charged for the March 2022 car crash that took the lives of three people, two of whom being Pennsylvania State Troopers, has plead guilty.
Jayana Webb was sentenced to 27-and-a-half to 60 years in prison for the fatal crash that occurred on the I-95 highway. In the guilty plea, the 23-year-old was convicted of three counts of both third-degree murder and homicide by vehicle while driving under the influence, as well as one count of driving under the influence, as reported by court records obtained by 6 ABC.
The victims of the crash were law enforcement officers, 33-year-old Martin Mack III and 29-year-old Branden Sisca, in addition to a 28-year-old named Reyes Rivera Oliveras. Before the incident, the State Troopers were placing Oliveras in the back of their police vehicle when Webb’s car struck them.
After initially being stopped by the slain troopers, the officers left Webb after receiving word of a pedestrian on the highway, who turned out to be Oliveras. Authorities stated that, upon the officers leaving the scene, Webb posted to X about the stop, stating, “why the cop pull me & he say im doing 110 ina 50.” The young woman continued on her dangerous drive, running straight into them 15 minutes later.
Webb’s blood alcohol content was .211%, more than double the legal limit of .08% for the state of Pennsylvania. The records also state that Webb was driving well over the speed limit, going around 110 mph.
Weeks before the fatal accident Webb appeared to have posted that she was the “best drunk driver ever,” Fox 29 reported.
The district attorney over the matter, Larry Krasner, released a statement following the resolution of the case.
“Today’s conviction of Jayana Webb is a just resolution of one of the most shocking incidents of vehicular violence in recent memory,” expressed Krasner.
