Passing through Henry Hudson Parkway she hit s speed of 80 mph, side tracking her daughter’s request to slow down the vehicle. She even tried to speed up the vehicle as she was reaching the highways, that was when the car went flipping several times and finally dashed against a tree. The accident literally threw 3 children out of the car and one of them happened to be Leandra Rosado who died minutes later the crash at 12.45 a.m.

Driver blamed in DWI death wants to kill herself
It was one of those horrifying DWI accidents, where all the children were severely injured and one of them died. It was clearly an aftermath of irresponsible drinking and driving. Carmen Huertas, the women behind this fatality fractured her arm and is admitted in Harlem Hospital. Other children are recovering from their injuries.
Carmen is said to have attempted suicide many a times in the Hospital blaming herself for the most tragic death of a child. Visitors informed that Carmen was in a high level of depression and is not able to forgive herself for the crime she has committed.
“Death is too good for her” – Lenny Rosado
The devastated father of Leandra Rosado had little sympathy for Carmen who killed his 11 year old daughter due to driving while intoxicated. He exclaimed that death was too good for the killer and spending rest of her life behind the bars, haunted with the devastating wreck she had caused, is the only way left.
The shattered father of the dead girl was indeed inconsolable. He gained custody of his daughter seven years ago and had been taking care of his daughter as single parent from then on. Just as he would spend the rest of his life thinking about the incident and those moments when his child would have been through the flipping car, the killer should not be spared for her recklessness.
