ALos Angeles socialite accused of fatally ploughing into two young boys
in a crosswalk, was “racing” her lover, a former Los Angeles pitcher,
who she had drinks with earlier that day, prosecutors have claimed as
her trial got underway this week.
Jury selection in Rebecca Grossman’s trial began on Tuesday, but before
testimony could even begin, her defence attorney is attempting to shift
the blame for the boys’ tragic deaths to the ex-MLB player she was with,
who also sped through the intersection seconds earlier, The Los Angeles
Times reported.
Ms Grossman, 60, faces two counts of second-degree murder for the deaths
of Mark Iskander, 11, and his brother Jacob Iskander, eight, who were
killed when she struck them with her Mercedes-Benz SUV as they walked in
the marked crosswalk with their mother Nancy Iskander and five-year-old
brother Zachary, on 29 September 2020. Prosecutors say Ms Grossman had
been drinking cocktails at a nearby establishment with Scott Erickson
before engaging in a street race through a residential neighbourhood of
Westlake Village, where she slammed into the two boys at a speed upwards
of 70mph.
She had been driving behind Mr Erickson when the crash happened on
Triunfo Canyon Road, according to testimony from Los Angeles County
sheriff’s investigators during a preliminary hearing in 2022.
But in court this week, defence attorney Tony Buzbee claimed the Los
Angeles Sheriff’s investigators never checked Mr Erickson’s black
Mercedes SUV for damage, even though witnesses claim they saw him drive
through the marked crosswalk a few seconds before Ms Grossman.
Mr Buznee said Mr Erickson had produced the vehicle he was driving for
examination in civil litigation after the deadly crash, but alleged that
the investigator took his word in a phone interview that he was driving
his 2007 Mercedes SUV at the time.
He then showed a photo of a 2016 Mercedes-AMG that Mr Erickson acquired
in May 2019, alleging that it was the SUV he was driving that day.
“Why would law enforcement not look at this vehicle that he was driving
that night?” Mr Buzbee asked. “Why wouldn’t they, especially when you
had a witness, the first witness that provided a witness account, said
there were two collisions three to five seconds apart? Why wouldn’t they
go look at his vehicle?”
Jury selection in the trial began on Tuesday in the Van Nuys courtroom
more than three years after the brothers’ deaths.

Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Joseph Brandolino, who is now
overseeing the trial, ruled this week that the court will be allowed to
prove to jurors that Ms Grossman was in the midst of a love affair with
Mr Erickson at the time of the crash.
Ms Grossman, co-founder of the Grossman Burn Foundation, is married to
prominent surgeon Dr Peter Grossman.
At emotional pre-trial hearings in 2022, Los Angeles County Superior
Court Judge Shellie Samuels determined the defence attorney’s argument
that Ms Grossman was rushing home was not accurate.
“The defendant was not rushing to get home; she was playing a high-speed
game of chicken with Mr Erickson,” Judge Samuels said, according to The
Los Angeles Times. “I believe the defendant went well beyond gross
negligence.”
The crux of the judge’s ruling for the socialite to stand trial for the
murder of the two brothers came from detailed testimonies about the
speed her car was travelling at in a residential area, where the posted
limit was 45mph.
Data extracted from her Mercedes SUV revealed that she had hit 81mph
just 1.5 seconds before the fatal crash.
Sheriff’s Deputy Robert Apodaca, a traffic crash specialist, provided
testimony in the preliminary hearings to state that he calculated the
socialite’s SUV to be travelling at 71.7mph when she first hit the boys,
which was a slight adjustment from the 81mph speed she was allegedly
tearing through the neighbourhood at before approaching the crosswalk.
The boys’ mother, Nancy Iskander, provided a harrowing account of what
she witnessed during that fatal crash in the fall of 2020, during which
she said the pair of SUVs “were zigzagging with each other as if they
were playing or racing”.
“They didn’t stop before the intersection. They didn’t stop at the
intersection. They didn’t stop when an 11-year-old was on the hood of
the car … Nobody stopped,” she recounted in a tearful account at the
time.
Ahead of this week’s trial, Ms Iskander posted a birthday tribute online
to her son, Jacob. He would’ve been 12 years old.
“Happy Birthday in Heaven Jacob, I miss you, not a second has gone by
without me wishing I am with you,” she wrote. “Jacob mattered, say his
name today as he turns 12.”
Ms Grossman is charged with two counts of second-degree murder, two
counts of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence and one count of
hit-and-run driving resulting in death.
Mr Erickson, 55, was charged with misdemeanor reckless driving. In
February 2022, a judge ordered him to make a public service announcement
geared toward high school students about the importance of safe driving.
Mr Erickson has denied any wrongdoing.
