Comments

The facts of the case and evidence show the passenger, Taliyah Zziwambazza jerked the string wheel to cause the accident out of anger at the driver. Taliyah was "drunk and p***** as f***!" When she grabbed the steering wheel causing the accident which led to the death of Alexis Brown-Johnson and the injuries of Bianca.
