Bond Set at $1.05 Million for Driver Charged in Grand Parkway Wrong-Way Crash That Killed Three

Investigators attributed the predawn collision to alcohol, prompting an enhanced manslaughter count plus an intoxication assault charge.

Overview

  • The Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office arrested 27-year-old Majesti Faith Lee on intoxication manslaughter, enhanced to a first-degree felony, and intoxication assault.
  • The crash occurred around 2 a.m. on Dec. 20 in the 11400 block of South Highway 99 near FM 1464 when a vehicle traveling south in the northbound lanes struck a family’s car.
  • Victims were identified as Lizbeth Rodriguez Contreras, 27, and Camila Pena, 5, who died at the scene, and Diego Pena Jr., 26, who died at a hospital; a 3-year-old boy survived in critical but stable condition.
