Richmond, TX – A woman faces multiple charges following a tragic crash that claimed the lives of three family members. Majesti Faith Lee, 27, was charged with intoxication manslaughter and intoxication assault after the incident.

The crash occurred early Saturday around 2 a.m. on South Highway 99 near Houston. A family of four, including Lizbeth Rodriguez Contreras, 27, Diego Pena Jr., 26, and two young children, was driving north when Lee allegedly drove south in the northbound lanes and collided with their vehicle.

Contreras and her daughter, Camila, were pronounced dead at the scene. Diego Pena and the couple’s three-year-old son were transported to a local hospital, where Diego later died. As of Wednesday, the young boy is reported to be in critical but stable condition.

Lee sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was also hospitalized before being arrested. Investigators believe alcohol played a role in the incident.

Following her arrest, Lee was jailed on a bond set at $1,050,000. Fort Bend County Sheriff Eric Fagan expressed condolences for the family, emphasizing the dangers of impaired driving.

A GoFundMe campaign has been created to assist the surviving family members, highlighting the profound loss endured by these individuals. The tragedy serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible driving decisions.
