Overview
- Prosecutors upgraded earlier reckless driving and aggravated battery counts after Daniel Waterman, 22, died on Oct. 8 from injuries sustained in the February wreck.
- Leigha Mumby, 24, was booked into the Flagler County Jail this week on the new count and released after posting a $150,000 bond.
- Investigators say the couple argued before Mumby accelerated past 90 mph into a tree and that data show no braking at the moment of impact.
- From his hospital bed, Waterman told troopers Mumby intentionally crashed after saying, "I don't care what happens. You'll get what you deserve," according to affidavits.
- Mumby has since given birth; Waterman’s family is seeking custody pending paternity testing, with the next court date set for November.
