Family Demands True Justice for Gayla
from Bakersfield News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Gayla Price’s family is devastated and outraged after an 18-year-old driver who killed her at 100 mph in 2023 accepted a plea deal that could lead to just eight years in prison — a sentence they call a “slap on the hand” and a betrayal after prosecutors promised no deal. They’ve protested outside court, demanding true justice and warning this outcome sends the wrong message about accountability for deadly recklessness. The DA’s office says the plea was strategic to avoid trial uncertainty, but the family sees it as a systemic failure. Sentencing is set for July 9th — and they’re determined to keep fighting.
