A Los Angeles county jury has found the socialite Rebecca Grossman and former MLB player Scott Erickson negligent in the deaths of two young brothers whom Grossman struck as she drove in Westlake Village in September 2020.
Following an eight-week civil trial, the jury on Wednesday awarded $176m to the family of 11-year-old Mark Iskander and his eight-year-old brother, Jacob. The boys were crossing the street with a skateboard and inline skates when Grossman fatally hit them with her car.
