Rebecca Grossman Convicted of Murder
Former Socialite Found Guilty in Westlake Village Crash
Guilty Verdict on All Counts
A jury on Friday found Rebecca Grossman guilty of murder in the killing of two young brothers who were walking along a sidewalk in Westlake Village when they were struck by her car in 2022.
Grossman, a former socialite and co-founder of a burn center foundation, was found guilty on all five charges against her, including two felony counts each of second-degree murder and gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated.
The jury reached its verdict after deliberating for less than a day. Grossman's sentencing is scheduled for Monday.
The prosecution presented evidence that Grossman was driving under the influence of alcohol at the time of the crash and that she was speeding and driving recklessly.
Grossman's defense attorney argued that she was not intoxicated and that the crash was an accident.
The victims' family expressed relief at the verdict, saying that it brings them one step closer to closure.
Conclusion:
The conviction of Rebecca Grossman sends a strong message that no one is above the law, even those with wealth and influence. Her actions resulted in the tragic and senseless deaths of two young boys, and she must now face the consequences of her recklessness.
