Appeals Court Affirms Grossman Murder Verdict in Westlake Village Crosswalk Case
TL;DR Summary
A California appeals court has upheld Rebecca Grossman's February 2024 conviction for two counts of second-degree murder (along with related charges) in the September 2020 crosswalk killings of 11-year-old Mark Iskander and 8-year-old Jacob Iskander, who were struck while in a marked crosswalk in Westlake Village. Grossman is serving 15 years to life; the defense argued the evidence showed only manslaughter and lacked implied malice, but the court rejected that argument and left the verdict intact. Civil wrongful‑death suits against Grossman and a co-defendant are pending.
