A mother has denied causing the deaths of her two daughters and two other youngsters in a crash.
Davina Smith, 30, of Tilbury, denied causing death by careless driving while under the influence of drugs when she appeared at Basildon Crown Court.
She is accused of causing the deaths of her daughters Karis and Kalli Goyette, aged eight and four, and Lee Gray and Kezia Adger, both 16.
The collision happened in Tilbury, Essex, in January.
All of those who died were in a Ford Fiesta which was in collision with a Vauxhall Corsa. Ms Smith will stand trial at a later date.
A mother has been convicted of killing her two young daughters in a head-on collision while she was high on drugs.
Four-year-old Kalli Goyette and her sister Karis, eight, died after their mother Davina Smith lost control of a stolen car in January of this year.
Kezia Adger and Lee Gray, both 16, who were in the same car, also died.
Smith, 31, from Tilbury, was convicted of four counts of causing death by careless driving “while unfit through drugs” at Snaresbrook Crown Court.
She has been remanded in custody until 2 February, to allow for the preparation of reports. But Judge David Radford warned Smith she should expect nothing other than a “substantial” term of imprisonment.
Traces of amphetamines
Earlier in the trial jurors heard how Smith had initially claimed Lee Gray was at the wheel of the stolen Ford Fiesta when it was involved in a head-on collision in St Chad’s Road, Tilbury.
Although Smith later accepted she had been driving she chose not to give evidence.
Jurors heard Smith had had a series of late nights and traces of amphetamines and cannabis were found in her system during hospital tests when she was being treated for injuries. The Fiesta had been stolen in Westcliff-on-Sea the day before the accident.
