Prosecutors say the woman accused of killing a Brooklyn mother and her two children in a Gravesend crash will face three to nine years behind bars.
Miriam Yarimi, 32, accepted a plea deal Monday.
The crash killed Natasha Saada, 34, and her daughters, ages 5 and 8.
Saada’s 4-year-old son was badly injured.
The Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office asked that Yarimi face the maximum sentence of five to 15 years, while Judge Danny Chun offered her the shorter sentence.
Yarimi allegedly sped through a red light at Ocean Parkway and Quentin Road on March 29. Her car slammed into an Uber, spun out and struck the young family, who had just begun to cross the street.
Yarimi previously pleaded not guilty to manslaughter.
She is expected to be sentenced Wednesday.
