Anurag Chandra accused of killing three teenage

The victims, who were 16 years old, were among six teens inside a Toyota Prius on Jan. 19, 2020 when Chandra intentionally crashed her vehicle off the road and fled, prosecutors said. The driver of the Prius lost control and the sedan crashed into a tree in Temescal Valley, about 60 miles (97 kilometers) southeast of downtown Los Angeles. Friends challenged a boy to jump into the pool at night or play ding dong ditch.

Chandra, who did not know the teens, testified at trial that one of the boys rang the doorbell and exposed his buttocks before running away, according to The Riverside Press-Enterprise. Chandra testified that he followed him because he feared for the safety of his family and wanted to express his anger. He said that he was “extremely, extremely angry” about the prank.

Chandra also testified that he drank 12 beers in the hours before the accident, the newspaper reported. He said he did not plan to hit the Prius and testified that he did not stop after rear-ending the sedan because he did not realize someone had been injured, although he admitted during cross-examination that he had been driving 99 mph. 159 kph) before the collision.

The accident killed Daniel Hawkins of Corona; Drake Ruiz de Corona; and Jacob Ivascu of Riverside, according to the Riverside County Coroner’s Office.

Sergio Campusano was the 18-year-old driver of the Prius at the time. He and Joshua Hawkins and Joshua Ivascu, then 13 years old, survived the crash. They testified at the trial and were in the courtroom when the verdict was read. Chandra was already facing criminal charges in connection with alleged domestic violence in 2020 when the murders occurred.Read More………
