Welcome to the new and Bianca Peters. Thanks for joining us. 32-year-old Miriam Urimi faces several charges following last month's crash

Fox's Arthur Cheehan is outside the courthouse in downtown Brooklyn with our top story now at noon
Arthur. Well, Bianca, simply put, this woman, this driver, the alleged driver of this vehicle
will make her first in-person court appearance here and will be arraigned on the charges in the indictment
Just when we came down right now from the 19th floor, Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez himself
walked into that courtroom to sit in the pews to oversee what is happening probably up there right
now. She faces three manslaughter charges. And let's show you the scene that we're talking about
from a couple of weeks ago. This is on March 29th here, where driving with a suspended license
her Audi struck another vehicle and plowed into this family. The mother that was walking with her
three very young children. The mother's name is Natasha Sada. She's been identified. Her daughter
and her other daughter five year old Deborah Both of them were killed at the scene there Her four year old son was also hospitalized in critical condition And while he lives today it obvious that his psyche his body and his entire world has been reshaped by this awful awful crash
Also, on the back end of it, we heard that this vehicle has more than 90 moving violations attached to it
moving violations and some parking tickets as of late 2023 alone. More than 99 tickets on that car
and yet that driver was on the road, and some witnesses told us was speeding as they entered that intersection
and that the mother and her children were crossing the street in the crosswalk, as we tell people to do
But that's when they're killed. Again, she is due to be arraigned here at this Brooklyn courthouse on three counts of second-degree manslaughter
Those are the most serious of the charges. The reason for the delay in her arraignment was because she was initially hospitalized to undergo a psychiatric evaluation
But we would urge people not to be distracted by her mental condition here
There are a lot of people driving in this city where their cars have racked out hundreds and hundreds of tickets
transportation alternatives, releasing a study just this morning, finding one driver already so far this year has 177 tickets but is allowed to drive on our streets
So there's definitely a larger problem here. We'll pay attention to the arraignment. We'll bring you everything that happens, including District Attorney Eric Gonzalez
What he has to say, he's going to speak afterwards. We'll have all that on our 5 o'clock newscast
But for now, we're live in Brooklyn. Arthur Trian, Fox News. Bianca, back to you. That many tickets, certainly concerning
Arthur, thank you for breaking that down for us
