A Maryland woman pleaded guilty Tuesday to six counts of vehicular manslaughter in connection with a crash in Baltimore County that killed six construction workers in 2023.

Lisa Lea initially faced 28 charges. Under the plea deal, the state is asking for her to be sentenced to 24 years in jail, followed by three years of probation and 40 hours of community service. She would be prohibited from driving during that time.
