Tiffany Sanchez Pleads Not Guilty in Pacific Beach Hit-and-Run as Judge Raises Bail to $150,000

Prosecutors allege she drove on a suspended license, then left without rendering aid.

Overview

  • Superior Court Judge Steven Stone increased bail to $150,000 at Sanchez’s arraignment and ordered her into custody.
  • Prosecutors say Sanchez paused after striking 6-year-old Hudson O'Loughlin, then accelerated through the alley, ran over him again, and did not call 911.
  • The deputy district attorney says Sanchez’s license has been suspended since 2017; she also faces an infraction for driving without a license and up to six years in prison if convicted.
  • If she posts bail, the court ordered GPS monitoring and a prohibition on driving, with the next hearing set for February 4.
  • The family’s civil attorney says they are investigating additional potential liability and unsafe roadway conditions, and that Sanchez was not the vehicle’s owner.
