The 24-year-old influencer was arrested shortly after the accident at 7 a.m. on August 10, in which her Mercedes collided with a Range Rover and a Suzuki, according to local channel WTVJ-TV.
Maecee, who has over 13,000 followers on her Instagram profile, is facing 10 criminal charges, including manslaughter, reckless driving, driving with a suspended license, causing injury, and fleeing the scene without assisting the victim, according to court records.
Lathers told the police that she had used tusi, a party drug also known as “pink cocaine,” during her arrest, according to WTVJ-TV. The police said that Lathers also claimed to have a crystal ball and to be from the future. State prosecutors later shared a toxicology report that found several drugs in her system.
Tusi is a pink powder that combines psychoactive substances such as ketamine, MDMA (ecstasy), methamphetamine, and opioids, according to a report by Professor Joseph J. Palamar from New York University published in the National Center for Biotechnology Information last year.
The accident resulted in the deaths of Abraham Ismael and Jesus Rubio, according to a report by the Miami Herald. Ismael, a father of a teenage son, was driving to work in a Suzuki with his fiancée, Juanita Hernandez, and Rubio, his friend, when the accident occurred.
First responders pulled Ismael from the wreckage and he died at a local hospital, while Rubio was pronounced dead at the scene. Hernandez sustained minor injuries, including cuts to her face and arm, while a 23-year-old man driving the Range Rover also suffered minor injuries in the accident.
