California Socialite Rebecca Grossman Faces Murder Trial for 2020 Hit-and-Run

Grossman, accused of racing ex-MLB pitcher Scott Erickson, allegedly struck two young boys with her SUV after a day of drinking.

Rebecca Grossman, a California socialite, is facing trial for the murder of two young boys, Jacob and Mark Iskander, whom she allegedly hit with her Mercedes SUV in September 2020.
Grossman is accused of racing her alleged lover, former MLB pitcher Scott Erickson, after a boozy lunch, and hitting the children in a crosswalk at high speed.
Witnesses report that Grossman was driving as fast as 81 miles per hour and continued driving for half a mile after hitting the boys.
Grossman's defense team plans to present evidence suggesting that another vehicle struck the children, and that Grossman was not speeding.
If convicted on all charges, which include two counts of second-degree murder, vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence, and hit-and-run driving resulting in death, Grossman could face up to 34 years in prison.
