Teen sentenced to probation following fatal crash

  • A 15-year-old undocumented teenager in Aurora, Colorado, pleaded guilty to vehicular homicide and was sentenced to two years of probation along with community service for causing the death of 24-year-old Kaitlyn Weaver last July.
  • After a change in leadership, the prosecution shifted from seeking a two-year youth detention term to offering probation through a plea agreement.
  • Authorities reported the teen was driving approximately 90 mph in a 45 mph residential zone when his Jeep crashed into Weaver’s car as she was driving home and speaking on speakerphone with her boyfriend.
  • The plea agreement requires 100 hours of community service, school attendance, and no law violations, with prosecutors stating the sentence reflects victim impact, defendant characteristics, and sentencing goals.
  • Weaver’s family criticized the sentence as too lenient, while prosecutors emphasized that the plea agreement reflects the gravity of the tragic and avoidable incident.
