A Waco woman has had her plea bargain refused by a 19th District Court judge in a case of vehicular manslaughter.

The 39-year-old woman, who happens to be legally blind, struck the man on East Lake Shore Drive back in December after not yielding the right of way during a left turn. The man was on his motorcycle, apparently riding to deliver toys to to charity organizations for Christmas. Injuries sustained by the crash killed him. The woman’s child was also injured, as the child was not wearing a seat belt at the time of the accident. She is additionally being charged with injury of a child because of not securing the seat belt while the child was in the car.

Having this plea deal turned down, she is set to appear in court again for an August 17 trial date. According to her defense, they will try to offer another plea bargain on her behalf before that date, and they are certain that a prison sentence would be an unnecessary punishment for this incident.
