Najib Intidam died at the scene of the crash. Hanane and Nour el Houda were rushed to Arlington Memorial Hospital, where they later died.

Man convicted of DWI manslaughter in family death

He could be sentenced to up to 20 years in prison for each manslaughter count and 10 years in prison for failing to stop and render aid.
The family had moved to North Texas from their native Morocco. Prosecutor Katie Woods said, "Tarrant County citizens came to the right verdict on a tough case and now the defendant will be held responsible for taking three lives by getting behind the wheel while he was intoxicated. Because of his selfish actions, this young married couple never got to see their precious daughter’s first birthday." Stewart elected to have a judge assess his punishment.
