Yesterday, Carmen Huertas appeared in court for the first time since overturning her car, injuring herself and her many young passengers (including her daughter), and killing her daughter's 11-year-old friend in October. Huertas, who faces vehicular manslaughter and DWI charges, had only appeared via a video link when she was initially charged, because she was still recovering from her injuries. Her lawyer said she remains a psychiatric ward and wants to kill herself, "She's tried to place objects around her neck," adding that she's an "emotional wreck."
