A woman charged over a crash in which a five-year-old girl died and a pregnant mother was injured has entered a plea in court.
Chrystle Olivia Kemp, 27, of Shepparton has pleaded guilty in Shepparton Magistrates’ Court to dangerous driving causing death and dangerous driving causing serious injury.
Three vehicles were involved in a collision at the intersection of Old Dookie Rd and Boundary Rd at Shepparton East on October 20, 2023.
Kemp’s passenger, Shepparton five-year-old Savannah Kemp, died in the crash.
The driver of another of the vehicles, then 32-year-old Elodie Aldridge, was 34 weeks pregnant with her unborn son, but during an emergency C-section at hospital after the crash it was discovered the unborn baby had died.
The charge of dangerous driving causing serious injury relates to the injuries suffered by Mrs Aldridge during the crash.
Two men in the third vehicle were taken to hospital for observation.
Kemp will remain on bail until she faces Shepparton County Court in November.
