(Stephenville, Tx) – An Erath County grand jury has indicted a woman accused of causing an accident that killed two children last December.
The Stephenville Empire Tribune reports Allyssa Litwin faces a total of eight charges – two counts of manslaughter, four counts of endangering a child, one count of aggravated assault and one count of tampering with evidence in connection with a Dec. 3 accident that killed five-year-old Codie Sackett and nine-month-old Charli Sackett and injured their mother Carrie Sackett.
Litwin’s pick-up rear-ended the Sackett’s SUV, sending it into oncoming traffic on Hwy. 281 just north of Morgan Mill. She’s accused of texting and using Facebook while driving with an invalid license. Investigators say Litwin deleted a string of text messages following the accident.
She is currently free on a $160,000 bond.
