Los Angeles, CA: On August 4, 2022, 23-year-old Asherey Ryan was killed alongside Armani Lester and her one-year-old son, Alonzo. She was eight months pregnant with her second son. Reynold Lester, Armani’s father, and two unidentified women who were traveling in another automobile were also killed in the collision. Nicole Linton, an intensive care nurse, was seen on CCTV footage slamming her Mercedes into six vehicles and running a red light at the busy Windsor Hills junction as she traveled at a high speed of 90mph. Just steps from a gas station across the street, the vehicles collided after the horrific incident, catching fire.
Asherey Ryan’s unborn baby was ripped from her body
The name of the unborn child, “Armani”, had already been chosen by Asherey Ryan. When the tragedy happened, the family was going to the hospital for a prenatal examination. The mother died in the accident and the unborn child was torn from its mother’s womb. Linton was also accused by the prosecution of killing Armani; according to them, the accident caused him to be born and die on the same day. The car of the second family was immediately torn in two by the collision. Alonzo was killed after being ejected from his car seat and landing at the feet of a witness who tried to save him. According to the medical examiner’s office, her body was discovered outside of her mother’s. She has a “profound” history of mental health issues, according to her lawyer.
However, Linton’s true motivation for his aggressive driving is still unknown. It’s also unclear why she was allowed to work in the healthcare system, particularly in intensive care, given her diminishing mental health issues, as reported by her attorney. She had held six nursing positions in five states in the previous two years. Although she did not complete her nursing degree in 2015, she began working in “outpatient” healthcare at NYU in 2010. A travel nursing agency called AMN Healthcare sends skilled workers there where they are most needed. Regarding Nicole Linton’s area of work and the background checks that were performed when she started working for AMN Healthcare, the company declined to comment. We are unable to comment at this time on an ongoing criminal investigation. Any other requests should be directed to law enforcement, a spokeswoman added. She will be jailed on $9 million bond for manslaughter and could face up to 90 years in prison if convicted. Despite the fact that Linton did not appear to be intoxicated, investigators say his previous driving experience should have made him aware of the dangers of irresponsible driving.
Alonzo’s father, Luis Quintero, said: “I want justice done. Something for her, restitution for what she did, then I could forgive her. Not now. She took my son away from me. I will never see him again. “He was joyful and ecstatic, and his smile would make anyone’s day better no matter what. Grieving father Luis Quintero continued, “I loved it when he squeezed his hands when he was fighting each other. legs of joy.
In Windsor Hills, Los Angeles, near the crash site, people are seen paying their respects.

Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón said Monday that “a young family was wiped out in the blink of an eye.” “The surviving family members and friends of those killed and injured have been irreparably devastated. In addition to their families, our entire community also suffered a significant loss after learning about this terrible event through the now viral video of the event, he continued.
