An Instagram model from New York, who crashed her Mercedes, causing a three-car wreck in Miami that killed two people, told police she was under the influence of party drugs and believed she was from the future.
WPLG reports that Maecee Marie Lathers, 24, confessed to police she was under the influence of “pink cocaine”, a synthetic drug also known as 2C and contains ketamine, when she ran a red light on Aug. 10 and crashed into two cars—killing driver Abraham Ismael and his rear passenger. Ismael’s wife, Juanita Hernández, who was in the front passenger seat, survived the crash.
Lathers reportedly also tried to flee the scene and had to be stopped by onlookers.
