DENVER — A Denver mother is speaking out against a potential plea deal allegedly offered to a driver who is accused of killing her 16-year-old daughter in June 2023.“I just try to make it through one day without a breakdown," Combs said. “It just doesn't ever get easier."
“She had a really, really hard night. Her and her boyfriend split, and she was supposed to be staying the night with her girlfriend," Combs explained. “She met some boy on Snapchat. And he came and picked her up at midnight, and she got into the car with him. She didn't have her phone with her to contact anyone. Nobody knows what happened from midnight to 3 a.m. But they were out driving around, and his blood alcohol was a .26.
Combs said there is a potential plea deal with a punishment ranging from six months to two years in out-of-home placement. Combs said there is a possibility the defendant will not serve any jail time and instead would live in a different home than his current living situation.
