The woman that hit my brother head-on while going the wrong way, was drunk and lived on house arrest for months before being sentenced to 25yrs with 10yrs suspended for the death of my baby brother. Oh, and she also got married during that time. My brother was a month shy of turning 29. He never has been and never will be married. Drunk & distracted drivers that kill people should get no less than 30yrs behind bars.
💛
They need to be shamed and isolated in society just we do p3d0files . I have no tolerance for them. So sorry this happened to your brother
Agree
@@donttalktomeyoureannoying8736 we don’t even do that for pedos. They protect pedos
Agree and I work at the dmv and one thing that just infuriates me is to see ppl with several DUIS’s trying to get their license. As long as they pay the fee, do their classes they’re elegible, and to know they didn’t learn their lesson. They need to make it harder for them! They’re so strict to truck drivers why let this people off the hook so easy -.-
This is why driving is so scary. My mom always told me to drive like everyone else is crazy. And it's the truth
Our moms must be second cousins, because my mom has always, always said the exact same words, exactly! She said it was all about driving defensively and man is she right. I can't tell you how many near accidents I've been it that weren't any fault of my own just by people being careless and talking on their phones. Stay safe out there!
@@jsully8076 hey cousin! 😂 You be safe out there too!
Exactly what my mom said, too. I keep a big old ring of space around my car all the time. This is a tough one to control for, though.
Yes! This is just one reason I never go into the intersections without clocking who is coming from either side and roadway. She was speeding, but she didn't just accelerate. She had to have been going top speed for a bit. Of course you look ahead when driving, but always assume things like this will happen. Because they do. I hate that we have to be diligent against idiot people like this.
Driving is not scary at all. It’s the drives that don’t know how to drive.
Drunk drivers never die I mean damn
Nobody knows if she was drunk yet tho so again, another uninformed useless comment.
Where did the drunk come from they never said she was drunk they're waiting on her blood test for drugs
Why are people assuming that? It has not been determined yet.
@@sandragrant5035 it will be either alcohol or drug.
@@Estarossa300 she’s a woman that’s justifiable enough for life in prison we all know women can’t drive proven by Andrew tate
this is really upsetting I lost a brother to a drunk driver I am so sorry for the families that are going through this I'm really saddened by this news and angry.
They don't know WHY she did what she did ...
Yes it’s very upsetting, alcohol had ruined so many lives.
I lost my baby brother as well in 2020 due to the same circumstances. He was a month shy of turning 29. The woman responsible is serving a pathetic 15yr sentence for it.
💛
@@sierradougie8559 I'm sorry to hear that.
She murdered six people who did nothing to her, but she decided to speed and that is why they died. I lost two uncles to drunk drivers who had been speeding. Both of the drivers were women. One of my uncles burned to death in the gasoline tanker truck that he was driving, and the other uncle was killed because the woman who hit him ran through a red light and totaled his car. But until we know whether or not she had been drinking or under the influence of drugs, I will still say she should still go to prison just for her high rate of speed.
Majority of car accidents, road rages and speeding accidents are all caused by males
Murder comes with intent. She didnt wake up and sit at the top of the hill, then say, hey im gonna hit that car. Thats murder. Get your charges right... i mean its called the internet maybe youve heard of it.. .oh shit you are on here now using it. Google.
Drunk driving is not cool. Neither is speeding in a vehicle. Always use extreme caution when driving. No alcohol or drugs. Text messages & phone calls can wait. It is perfectly legal to pull into parking lot & park vehicle to check text messages & answer phone while vehicle is parked & not in operation. It's much safer for drivers, other drivers, & pedestrians. Please be safe driving!!!!
Black nurse murders pregnant black woman and her drug dealing boyfriend. Black Lives Murder
Worse than a mass shooting, IMO. At least a shooter might not like people who give him a dirty look. This was purely random.
So crazy that she caused this accident and she’s alive wtf 🤬 she took innocent peoples life didn’t deserve that fate at all 🤦🏻♂️ RIP 🌹🕊
The sad thing is that the drunk driver never gets killed in the accident they caused, while they took the lives of many innocent people. However, karma will take care of it
Well in this instance, the safety tech of the E450 Coupe is what saved this drivers life. Mercedes-Benz are extremely safe cars, drunk drivers usually live due to the body being not bracing for impact
@@JamesCook76131 Yes! Not to mention it looked like she T-boned other cars. The side of a car can only protect so much when faced with the heavy front end of a forward engine vehicle.
Sometimes drunk drivers do end up dead from vehicle wreck. If you drink at a friend's place, party, bar, or anyplace, call a taxi, call Uber, Lyft, friend's, family member to pick you up. A DUI will ruin lives of others & cause great problems for anyone convicted of DUI. ITS NOT WORTH IT. IF I GO OUT TO BAR & DRINK, I USE A TAXI TO GO TO BAR & TO GO HOME.
My mom believes in karma but I don't. I'm old enough to have seen people get away with murder and nothing happens to them.
There are horrific car accidents in L A but this one is at the top--a woman going more than 80 miles an hour only to end up killing 5 people horrific-and in such a very busy intersection La Brea has always been an incredibly busy ave. But why drive so fast???? Was she intoxicated ??? On drugs???? ( tests not in yet per the toxicologist ) don’t understand the rate of speed this woman was going a baby killed as well and the pregnant mom wtf man , where was the driver who killed all these people , going????? And was it worth it??? I’m so angry , so senseless!!!! May all who lost their life’s RIP -hope the woman who created this hell is held accountable. Children dying in a fiery car crash that’s where I draw a line in the sand. A pregnant mom ,Jesus !
WTF she survived? why do they always survive?
I thought Paul Pelosi was in Northern California.
I'd ride with Pauli Pelosi any day, & he killed his own brother years ago, before I'd get within 1,000 yards of Nicole L. Linton's ride. Nope. She's NASCAR bad.
No words can express how soul crushing this is. Peace and Blessings to their loved ones.
That's what I always say to my son, don't drive when you're intoxicated, unwell or upset. Not worth it, not for you but to save lives of others. A car is a weapon when used to harm others. So sorry for all the families involved :(
They still haven’t figured out if she was intoxicated
Truth. Wise counsel. I told my kids if you're upset stay at home. Also, Don't drive to clear your head: that's what journal books are for🤦🏾♀️
Extremely sad because innocents have been murdered for nothing. This is a mass murder.
I’ve lost 3 family members as a result of drunk driving. I’m not sure if this the case yet. I can’t imagine what the hell happened for her to do that, 80-100 miles per hour. And the person that killed my family lived as well. So sad for the victims and their families. Throw the book at her.
Sorry, but this happened in California ( land of looney liberals and corrupt Democrats). Liberal Democrat judges won’t throw the book at her. They will give her 5 years prison, she’ll be out in 2 on good behavior.
Sorry for your losses 💜 My baby brother was hit by a drunk driver going the wrong way in 2020 and his killer lived as well. It's such an unnecessary tragedy losing loved ones in this way.
Wow the unborn child was counted. Their lil life mattered too!😔😔😔😔😔😔
The unborn baby is being included because it would have been viable outside the womb, and this report is not including the unborn baby in the count. If they were, it would say 6 dead.
By the cop but not by the LAT.
Notice how he stumbled thru even saying it tho? He was like “crap how can I say this without getting fired for going against the ideology of the LA mob, screw it, it’s true!”
Making abortion your every thought and personality it just sad.
@@stormbringer126 don’t be mad when ppl point out the idiocy and hypocrisy of the woke mob. It’s valid to point out they idiocy of justifying killing the unborn down the street from this accident but counting it here. Logic did always escape those screeching bafoons.
Some people should just never be allowed to drive.
How sad. I pray peace and comfort over their families.😔
I'm so sorry to the families that lost their loved ones in this way. The drunk driver needs life in prison. So sad for those people to have their life taken with such violence. 🙏🏼💔
it doesn't say she was drunk just waiting on results to see if she was drunk driving. but yeah drunk or not going 80-100 mph on a town road and killing 6 ppl def deserves to be life sentence or imo death
How come she lives only God knows
Nothing about the conclusion of her being drunk!For all we know she may have diabetes and passed out!
@@markanderson5809 no, it’s because she hit them head on and her modern car protected her, while the others were hit broadside, where the least protection is, and ripped open the fuel tank in the rear where she hit them
@@rx7dude2006 this may be true - there may be a reasonable explanation for her not seeing anything, but she was going in a straight line at easily 100mph already so that’s on her no matter what
Glad they counted that unborn child as a person. Final total 6 according to the officer.
Cop hesitated saying it at first
That's because the unborn child is a human life
Not according to abortion supporters. To them it isn't a life until its born and takes a breath.
The COP did, the LA Times completely ignored it and kept putting 5 on the screen--like "get it lemmings, it's 5".
In LA if you murder a pregnant woman that’s 2 counts. (Peterson)
Yet these leftist cultists have no problem killing an 8 month old in the womb by “choice”.
If you go back and watch the crash video at .25 speed, you can see her arm out of the window raised while approaching intersection like she was holding a phone recording it or showing someone live what was about to happen.
no you cant
@@Braazyfaith try it, They didn’t put the clip in this report but many others that have the surveillance cam where you can see a lady pumping gas in left of frame when car approaches. When slowed down to .25, you can clearly see that arm out in a few frames before impact.
Wow do you think it was suicide? She foul for that. She could have drove the car in the river instead of traffic.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
omg
Who cares if she's a registered nurse. She can rot in prison for all I care
You know she's white. That's why they keep shoving her career in our faces. If she were black, they would bring up violent stories from when she was a toddler
They always survive and the ones who don’t deserved it rarely survive…. All my thoughts and prayers to the victims family 💜💜
This hit home hard for me. March 2016 my cousin (like a big brother to me) and his 11 week old daughter was hit sitting still at a stop light was hit by a car going 60. It took most of the back of the car and crush him a bit breaking his neck and they both burned in the wreck. MY HEART GOES OUT TO THE FAMILY 🙏🙏🙏😭
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼so sorry for you and your family's loss
This is so sad.
I realize people die every day in car crashes... but this particular disaster has really hit me harder than anything else in recent memory. The loss of life and manner in which they all perished is devastating enough. But I think what really nauseates and infuriates me more than anything else is the fact that this tragedy should have never happened. This was no accident here. This was a mass murder. I will never, ever be able to comprehend why this woman did what she did. There is no reasoning or excuse in the entire universe that could justify her actions. This was not some 16 year old boy out with his buddies being immature and reckless. This was a grown woman, an educated and I assume intelligent person with a career and a very nice car. What would have possessed her to drive 100 miles per hour on a busy city street and go through a red light at a major intersection? Was this a murder-suicide mission? Was she completely whacked out of her mind with drugs or alcohol, or both? And once again, there is no reason or excuse on earth that could logically explain her actions. She must be held completely accountable...from the hospital...to jail...to court....to prison....to intense therapy to fully comprehend and take responsibility for the devastation she has caused, the people she murdered, and to all the ones in any way related to this crash who will suffer with broken hearts (and probably psychological trauma) for the remainder of their lives. And, if this woman who caused all this ever does get her driver's license and her driving privileges restored....even if it's 20 or 30 years from now, I swear to you I will move out of the state of California in protest. I want, so very badly, to know what the hell this woman was thinking when she got into that car to drive for the last time. As I said.... there will never, ever be an excuse or justification good enough....but I just really want to know why, and I think everybody related to this incident as well, including anyone who has ever driven an automobile, deserves some type of an explanation. And even though she means nothing to me at all, I do have in my heart somewhere a little morsel of sympathy for her....because basically, her life is DONE. And last, and as I grieve for all these strangers as I write this, if that driver of that Mercedes who recklessly and callously destroyed all those lives....had that driver been ME, I would rather have been killed as well. I wouldn't feel deserving enough to even breathe or live another day.
My thoughts and prayers go out to all who lost loved ones and also for the injured. I pray that the woman who caused this horrific tragedy spends the rest of her life behind bars!! I have zero patience for drunks!!
Some crimes warrant the death penalty. People on the scene stated the pregnant woman who was killed literally lost her fetus on the scene (the accident was so violent). A person was burned up in their car. How much do you want to bet from the time of the killing to when she is arraigned in court she will plead NOT GUILTY. This wan an execution.
what about faulty engineering..?
@@MM-ig1iv are you on drugs
High performance vehicles with low performance brains at the wheel.
Where the hell was she going so daymn fast?!
She was drunk. Her friend said that the woman and her boyfriend got into an argument, she started drinking heavily and stupidly got behind the wheel
@@BigWilt2000 the bf was in the car ??

Friends Don't Let Friends Drive DRUNK!
I can't imagine anyone surviving that crash!
Love & Strength to the families of the victims
Of course the driver that caused the accident would live...
Driver is Nicole Linton. Black female, registered as a nurse in state of Texas.
Was drunk and fighting with her boyfriend.
Don't mess with a boozy BT 1000.
Dem gurlz r sassy
@@chrispaul1117 hope she packs some of that sass for 60 years in women's prison.
The bf was in the car ?
This is so heart breaking.
That is devastating. I feel so sorry for their families.
Damn, that car burst into flames immediately
Prolly a korean car manufacturer
Yeah, that is very odd. That rarely happens anymore.
Lord help us. This is insane. My condolence to the family 🙏
How in the Hell Did the Driver of the Mercedes Survive.
Drinking and driving is safer than driving sober
Side impact. Just give it some thought.
This is why drunk driving pisses people off so much, because paradoxically, the driver ends up surving more often than not. And then they go right back to driving drunk.
High end vehicle frontal collisions are survivable even hitting a wall at 60mph and she hit malleable, movable vehicles. Meanwhile the vehicles she hit all got T-boned which is basically a worst case.
@@Demmrir good answer. I don’t have to explain now.
This is a terrible news! Hope everyone concerned find peace and strength to recover from this loss.
I wonder if they are going to discover that this was an attempted suicide...100 miles an hour in a city when police aren't chasing or racing with somebody else is just strange.
People gotta stop glorifying driving irresponsibly
Deeply saddening and heartbreaking news. My condolences to the families of all victims. Rest in peace, you're among the angels now.
She should never ever see the light of day ever again not eligible for parole NOTHING AND OF COURSE SHE LIVES ....GO FIGURE..!
how did she live .. wtf
My sister has traumatic brain injuries caused by a drunk driver. I’m glad they arrested her. They said she’s from Houston Texas. I hope they throw the book at her. She murdered all these innocent people and babies.😡
My Condolences to the affected families. Where do we send donations for the families?
My prayers are with them all.
She's a nurse? How ironic.
Probably wasn’t even drunk. Probably filming a damn tik tok
jesus man. what a tragedy
Terrible story, important update. Some justice will be served but not enough.
I am heartbroken. What really surprised me is that the arrested driver was a registered nurse. She worked her entire life to build a career to help save lives. All it took was an argument with her boyfriend and alcohol abuse to destroy her entire life, kill 6, injure 9, scar countless witnesses with PTSD, and put hundreds of people in mourning for lost loved ones.
Alcohol abuse is selfishly dangerous for the people around you and innocent people in your community.
Drink moderately. Look after yourself, then look after your friends and family.
Not only that, she had 13 crashes before this incident and still got to keep her license. It could've been prevented
Ridiculous speeding and she is a nurse.
Soooi sad...
Praying 🙏🏾 for each and everyone 🙏🏾
That wasn't manslaughter. That was outright murder.
Welp ... Better start banning Mercedes vehicles then. They're killing people 😂
Funny thing I saw that comment posted here in seeming seriousness. Next step, ban stupid ppl, then we’re back to eugenics and genocide, fitting for LA tho given their history with eugenics and forced sterilizations
Making gun control your every thought and personality it just sad.
@@stormbringer126 wouldn't say I'm a massive advocate blogging about it every chance I can get so kudos for you thinking that you know me. Secondly, and judging from your response, you're the type that loves hearing themselves talk just because you have a narrow mindset that's been brainwashed by either your liberal education or the news you tend to get your information on. My statement is just as logical an argument as gun safety. I'm giving you this opportunity to flex what you think you know and try to change my mind on the matter because if I'm not mistaken... Statistics say that 32 people die everyday due to drunk driving. Okay let's take out them being impaired. How many people die from just vehicle accidents? 42,915 people died last year in vehicle accidents. 20,726 people died last year due to gun violence, excluding suicides... So... One tool kills double the amount of people as opposed to the other. Why can't we ever just blame the person who's operating either one? With enough cash, you can buy a gun or a car. I mean if you wanted to buy a gun legally, you'd have to go through background checks, but a car you can just pick up on craigslist without a license. It's easier to buy a vehicle than a gun let's be real here but yet vehicles kill double the amount of people per year than guns do. You see where this is headed? So PLEASE, educate me on your point of view because I can't wait to hear about how much sense you won't make.
They don’t know if she was drunk. Why is everyone saying she was drunk.
Because there are better more informative news sites that actually give information.
I can't wait to her 'story' on what happened.....this nurse.
Of course the one that caused it didn't die....
Drunk driving or not. Life in prison without possibility of parole.
She wasn't even arrested there...good luck with getting a white woman life without parole in America!! 😅
This is the worst crash scene I have ever seen. RIP to all the fatalities & sincere condolences to all their families. Godspeed!
I'm so sorry for your loss. RIP 😢 A chain of reaction like final destination.
Wtf why go soo fast in a neighborhood midday that's crazy
How awful
When we start any vehicle driving, we re-enter into an agreement with humanity to drive civilly at all times, in every sense of the word. I'm thankful when I and everyone driving around me keeps that covenant intact. I do not take participating in any car movement for granted. But I am only human. I hope I retain the relational integrity to resolve any and all personal shortcomings that may compromise my ability to responsibly re-join my fellow drivers, to again and again participate civilly and show due competency when driving my car in life on the road. Safe travels, okay?
Murder. That speed. Murder.
I give Uber and Lyft rides and avoid this part of the city if I can. The percentage of reckless, aggressive, and just flat out bad drivers in this part of the city is dumbfounding. When I have to drive through this part of the city, I drive there with heightened awareness. Had too many close calls to think they were just flukes.
Smart actions. Stay safe
What other parts are bad, just so I'm aware ? I had to live in a part of South L.A. for a little while and saw how basically lawless it was out there. I've also noticed they drive pretty crazy regularly in South Whittier. Constant speeding.
Agree with you. I avoid driving through that part of the city at all costs
A drunk nurse almost killed me by overdosing my iv in the hospital
This so heart breaking and unfair.
if getting off your meds makes you this crazy ban them
She can afford a high profile lawyer and get away with it==that's how our system works now
"Linton is likely to be charged with killing the unborn child as well as the five others." = huh? But, I thought the - now wait a minute ............................................................hmmmmm?
Ironic isn’t it?
@@Cokbot As I walk though this WICKED world each day is a new discovery of EVIL.
the one responsible never seems to die in these..
Just had to say hopesfall ftw
Why can’t people just understand that drinking and driving is not something you should be doing.
How are people so stupid
Very tragic! 🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️
I don't think this was "accident". The driver will never face the justice she deserves because of reasons.
That woman was attempting suicide..it’s clear as day..
It wasn't my fault, the gas pedal got stuck, ah, I worked all night, I went to sleep, ah, I was late to work.
Dash cam?
This looks intentional.
Nothing less than Life without parole.
She must have been trying to commit suicide
She was flying through that intersection
Unbelievable
Pray for these poor souls
This is terrible so terrible
Devastating
Now she's gonna live with that forever
I hope they make an example of the woman responsible
Surprised the media didn't blame Tesla. For the hits.
Wow! And she's a registered nurse. Her oath is to help sick people heal, not kill them. Damn!
If you go out & drink alcohol beverages at friend's place, party, bar, or anyplace, call a taxi, Uber, Lyft, family member or designated sober driver to take you home. A DUI will cause you major problems & other people too. It's not worth it. Most police will even be happy if you walk home & not being disorderly. Remember a DUI stays on your DMV report for many many years. High risk automobile insurance is very hard on people with DUI. ITS NOT WORTH IT!!!! DO NOT DRINK & DRIVE PLEASE!!!!!
Let's see what the DA does with this one. This will be a watershed moment if another one is let off.
It's Gascon. He LOVES criminals. She'll walk free.

Horrific
What a horrible thing... a nurse too, I wonder if she fell asleep after a long shift? Horrible for her that she didn't go with them.
The fact tht she’s a registered nurse 👩🏽⚕️ as IAM pisses me off. We take an oath too take care of ppl THIER loved 🥰 ones as well.

I don’t understand how she lived through that? How her car wasn’t in flames from impact, as well??
Never drive mad and intoxicated.
Why would they tell us she is a registered nurse but not provide her name??
She needs to do some serious time.
I'd give her "life and one day " ...
She won’t
Very sad!
My God 🙏🏾
Wow!
Where is the picture of the suspect?
How fast was the RN driving. What a horrible tragedy
Suicide is a horrible choice one makes for them selves, she had the audacity to take others out with her
