In 2013, Kayla Mendoza tweeted “2 drunk 2 care” before driving the wrong way on a Florida highway, killing two people.
Kayla Mendoza pleaded guilty in February to two charges of DUI manslaughter for her involvement in a November 2013 drunk driving accident that killed two people.
Less than three hours before she drove on a Florida expressway going the wrong way, crashing and killing Kaitlyn Ferrante and her best friend Marisa Catronio, Mendoza tweeted: "2 drunk 2 care."
A Florida court sentenced Mendoza Monday to 24 years in prison. She was facing a maximum sentence of 30 years. She will also have six years of probation and a lifetime driving ban.
The families of Ferrante and Catronio addressed the courtroom during the sentencing, asking the judge for the maximum sentence.
