HomeBlogPhoenix, AZ – Mom Killed, Four-Year-Old Critical After Collision With Speeding Driver on Southern Ave

Phoenix, AZ (April 12, 2022) – An 18-year-old was operating a vehicle at more than 100 mph on Tuesday, April 12th seconds before causing an accident that killed a woman and left her young daughter clinging to life. 

At about 8:00 p.m., the suspect, Eulalio Juarez Rodriguez, was driving a Camero at an excessively high rate of speed westbound on Southern Avenue when he crashed into a Hyundai that was making a lefthand turn onto 32nd Avenue in Phoenix. 

The driver of the Hyundai, which was launched into a power pole, died at the scene. 

Her 4-year-old daughter, who was properly restrained in the back seat, was taken to an area hospital in extremely critical condition.

An investigation determined that the Camaro was going about 115 mph 2.5 seconds before the collision and 88 mph half a second before impact. The speed limit on that stretch of Southern Avenue is 45 mph.

Rodriguez has been charged with manslaughter. Police do not believe impairment was a factor.

No other details were immediately available.

We would like to offer our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased victim at this time. Our thoughts are with the injured victim and her family in hopes of a full recovery.

Wrongful Deaths in Arizona

To secure compensation for the wrongful death of a relative, a wrongful death claim may be filed by a surviving parent, spouse, or child against the company, government entity, persons, or any party that behaved negligently, maliciously, recklessly, or in such a manner as to cause another person’s death.

Wrongful death claims are most often associated with deadly accidents, like bicycle accidents, car accidents, motorcycle accidents, tractor-trailer accidents, or accidents involving defective products. 

You may be entitled to economic recovery for your damages. Some damages, such as medical bills and lost income, are ubiquitous in wrongful death claims. Other damages, however, differ from claim to claim and are established according to the claimant’s relationship with the deceased. 

In order to understand what compensation you and your family may be entitled to, is important to have a reliable attorney on your side; one who is committed to advising and supporting you every step of the way.
