Texas Woman Let Child Drive, Chaos Ensued. Watch The Crash.

Ladeja Pickett, a 25-year-old Texas woman, is facing criminal charges after allegedly telling a 9-year-old girl to move her car, a decision that led to a crash and left the child seriously injured.

According to People and KSAT, Pickett has been charged with injury to a child and endangering a child since the Nov. 9 incident. Deputies were called to the crash site in San Antonio, Texas, shortly after 4 p.m. on Sunday. A spokesperson for the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office told People that Pickett claimed she asked the child to move a car out of her driveway while she was putting up Christmas decorations. The spokesperson also said Pickett, who is not the child’s mother, reported that the girl knew where the keys were and “retrieved them independently.”
