Maykoll Santiesteban was driving nearly 55 mph over the speed limit in his father’s car when he crashed. A Florida teenager who went joyriding and crashed into another vehicle, killing three women, has pleaded guilty to the charges and could face decades in prison. Maykoll Santiesteban, 16, appeared in a Miami-Dade courtroom on Friday where he pleaded guilty to three counts each of vehicular homicide and driving without a license causing death.

He was just 15 years old when he took his father’s car out on the deadly joyride in Hialeah on April 23, 2024. Hialeah police say he was driving 80 mph in a 30 mph zone, a whopping 55 mph over the speed limit when he slammed into a parked SUV with three women inside. Bob Garcia, who lost his wife, daughter, and sister-in-law, in the crash, said nothing will bring back his family. “I can't kiss my wife, I can't hug them, we can't celebrate Christmas,” Garcia said in Spanish. “Nothing will repay what I lost.”.
