Bowie woman charged in crash that killed five children, one adult

A Bowie woman who was the only survivor of a February crash that killed a man and five children was indicted by a grand jury Tuesday on six counts of vehicular manslaughter and six counts of vehicular homicide, according to Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Aisha Braveboy.

Dominique R. Taylor, 32, of Bowie, was charged after an investigation showed she was driving with at least twice the legal limit of alcohol in her system.

Five children — all from the same extended family — died in the car crash early Feb. 2. The children were not wearing their seat belts, according to the State’s Attorney’s Office.

Braveboy said Taylor lost control of the vehicle around 4:25 a.m. on Feb. 2 on Route 301 between Route 214 and Pointer Ridge Drive. The 2005 Chrysler Pacifica van veered off the highway and hit multiple trees, ejecting the five children inside and injuring the Taylor and an adult passenger in the front seat. Cornell D. Simon, 23, died about a week and a half later from his injuries on Feb. 15.
