Trial Delayed Again in Sisters' Tragedy

Tevin Brandt and Gustavo Montoya’s trial for the deadly crash that killed two sisters has been postponed again—now set for August 31. Originally scheduled this month, the delay marks yet another twist in a three-year legal saga stemming from a March 2023 incident where the two men chased newspaper-delivering sisters after mistakenly believing they had Brandt’s lost phone. The sisters’ car veered off the road, was struck by another vehicle, and burst into flames—leaving 21-year-old Karime Duarte and 15-year-old Jennifer Duarte dead, while their sister Diana Ponce survived with serious injuries. Brandt’s phone was later found in a different rideshare vehicle near the scene. Brandt faces two murder charges, Montoya vehicular manslaughter, plus other counts. The case continues to unfold, with court delays underscoring its complexity. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
