Woman Accused Of Driving While High On Marijuana Pleads Guilty In Deadly 2017 Crash

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) -- A Stanton woman pleaded guilty on Wednesday to a deadly DUI crash in 2017, involving marijuana.

26-year-old Aliza Keiley Giglio was under the influence of marijuana during the crash that killed 81-year-old Clark Adams, prosecutors said.

She pleaded guilty to a felony count of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated.

Now, Giglio must give up her driver's license and continue seeking mental health care.

Giglio, who rear-ended the elderly man at a red light on Santiago Canyon Road in Orange, received a two-year suspended prison sentence.

If she violates the probation terms, she could face two years in prison.
