Canyon Country resident Alexia Cina, charged in the death of Katie Evans in a DUI crash on Golden Valley Road on October 6, appeared in court for the first time Thursday, and changed her legal representation.

    Terrible journalism

  2. Anita Silva says:

    This is just so very sad…

  3. Brian Durand says:

    Well that’s too bad. That means her parents got her a good lawyer.

  4. This page is such a joke when it comes to tragic reports. For multiple years now. Horrible journalism

  5. Eve Marton says:

    Your going to hell!! How do you live with yourself??

    • Mp says:

      I grew up with Katie, and even though I hadn’t kept in close contact with her through the years I know the vitriol in this thread would disappoint her. She was as, if not more, profoundly good as any news outlet had reported. Be kind in your judgement. Even Jacob has stated on record that he forgives the driver. She will receive legalconsequences, but a collective hate is unwarranted.
      If you want to direct hate in some direction, don’t do it in Katie’s name or on her behalf. That isn’t who she was.

  6. Mike Weaver says:

    Her parents should be ashamed of them self and they’re daughter. She murdered an innocent women and mother. Just give her the lethal injection already

  7. Lorie Lawson says:

    I have to hide this post, I can’t even look at her face.

  8. Just how many years and tax dollars will be wasted before she is sentenced for the murder she committed?!? ….or, will it be like the illegal who was just found innocent in Kate Steinli’s murder?!!!

  9. John Whitlaw says:

    Lock her up for 30 yrs that will give her time to think

  10. Matt Graham says:

    I say lock her up 2 years for each kid that is affected by her and then 2 more for the killing

  11. Jan Peterson Cornett compares this girl to an illegal based on her nationality lol your a piece of work

  12. Jean says:

    How about she has a trial before you all decide to give her the death penalty?

    I have raised 4 kids and kids do stupid things. Leave the parents alone they are in pain too.

    These kids will never again be held by their mom no matter what happened. Tragic.

  13. Bri Michelle says:

    She should be prosecuted to the fullest extent possible. She’s a horribly selfish person…. just because you have a good Lawyer doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be held accountable.

  14. SCgal says:

    First off, this is such a tragic and senseless death of a young mother; all my thoughts and prayers to her loved ones. Understandably, the community has also been affected by this tragedy. However, the calls for “frying” or “executing” the defendant Cina, and the speculation of the length of her sentence are equally appalling. Let’s all take a step back, let her have her day in court and let justice prevail. If the facts as stated in the story bear out in court, anyone determined to be driving with a BAC of .21 and causes the death of an innocent, will be held responsible.

  15. Jeanne says:

    This young woman made a tragic mistake and will pay the consequences in court. Her parents don’t have anything to do with this. Kids don’t always do what parents tell them in case you have lived under a rock and don’t know.

    It is called Manslaughter not murder you trolls.

    Sometimes parts of this town sound like they should have a mullet haircut and live in Florida. The amount of brains is on the same level as their compassion.
