LOS BANOS, CALIFORNIA — A teenage woman live streaming while driving under the influence killed her younger sister in a horrible car crash this past week.
On July 21, Obdulia Sanchez was singing and driving with her sister Jacqueline, 14, and another 14-year-old girl in the car. Sanchez happened to be live streaming on Instagram while driving, when she suddenly lost control of the vehicle and swerved off the road. The car then crashed through a barbed wire fence, and rolled over in a field by the highway. As this was happening, Sanchez's little sister Jacqueline was ejected through the back window. She was not wearing a seatbelt.
Following the crash, Sanchez ran to her sister's side, but her immediate behavior was bizarre to say the least. Panicked, she yelled Jacqueline's name and tried to revive her. While still live streaming, she went on to say "I killed my sister, but I don't care. I killed my sister. I know I'm going to prison, but I don't care. I'm sorry baby. I'm a hold it down."
The other girl in the car managed to survive the crash but suffered serious leg injuries. The Merced County Sheriff's Office reports Obdulia Sanchez is now facing charges of DUI and vehicular manslaughter while under the influence. Her sister Jacqueline was about to celebrate her 15th birthday this week.
