The Brief

PALM COAST, Fla. - The girlfriend of a man who died months after a car crash in Flagler County has been charged with vehicular homicide.

Investigators said the crash was intentional.

The backstory:

Investigators say a February car crash in Flagler County that killed 22-year-old Daniel Waterman was not an accident but an intentional act by his girlfriend, Leigha Mumby.

The Florida Highway Patrol reports the couple was arguing when Mumby allegedly accelerated her vehicle to more than 90 mph and drove straight into a tree.

Waterman, who was critically injured, later told troopers from his hospital bed that Mumby intentionally caused the crash after saying, "I don’t care what happens. You’ll get what you deserve."
