On September 29, 2020, a tragic accident occurred. For three years, the media has focused on only one side of this story.
The EVIDENCE prosecutors do not want the public to know about clearly shows that the allegations are part of a false narrative.
The Rebecca Grossman murder trial opening arguments will be heard on either Friday, January 26th or Monday, January 29th. The defense will be addressing the media about eyewitnesses that the prosecution has tried to conceal. Eyewitnesses that reported to the Sheriff's that multiple vehicles hit the children. The defense's reconstruction experts will show that Grossman's vehicle was not the first vehicle to hit the children and another eyewitness indicated that she was also not the last vehicle that made contact with the children. These witness reports and video existed from the first night of the accident and instead of trying to identify the other vehicles, the Sheriff's took the easy route and focused on the driver of the only vehicle that stayed after the accident occured, Rebecca Grossman. The defense will also address the fact that the case was never properly investigated when considerable evidence was available to the prosecution that, in turn, chose to turn a blind eye because it did not fit their narrative.
"This tragic case was negligently handled and is a clear-cut case of malicious prosecution. A traumatic and emotional incident has been turned into something it was not", claimed Grossman's defense attorney, Tony Buzbee. He added, "The evidence and truth will be revealed in the upcoming trial. You can't dispute scientific facts. My client remains heartbroken and as a mother, she prays for protection and comfort for the Iskander family every day. This could have been anyone and that is a frightening fact for the public to beware of when they are just out and about conducting their lives normally. She is not guilty of any of the accusations that have been made against her. She was not impaired, she was not racing, she was not going the speed that they claim and she never fled the scene. The fact that so much evidence was concealed, destroyed or simply went missing early on will clearly show that this case has never been about revealing the truth by the prosecution ... and that is shameful as it has only created more pain and suffering for the family of the children and all involved".
1. Regardless of the false accusations released to the media, Rebecca Grossman WAS NOT OVER THE LEGAL LIMIT. She blew under the legal limit nine times in two separate PAS breathalyzer (Lifelock FC 20) devices , as will be shown in the trial on the body cam footage of the sobriety test, even after inhaling sodium azide and other chemicals released from the two airbags that deployed, the two highest recorded breath test were still under the legal limit and registered that she was, in fact, blowing hard enough into the Lifelock FC 20 devices. She performed all tasks well and spoke clearly. Later, BAC results were under the legal limit. She was not drunk or impaired and has NOT been charged with a DUI. Grossman has never had a DUI or her license suspended (as reported in the news) and has no priors.
2. This is NOT a “street racing” case, as the press initially reported after being given false information by the Sheriff. The District Attorney overseeing this case further made this clear in open court; the statement made by the DDA, Ryan Gould - in a court transcript is, "NO EVIDENCE OF RACING."
3. Rebecca absolutely did not flee the accident scene and fully cooperated with legal authorities. The Judge has confirmed that she waited for police to arrive as directed on the 911 call. Furthermore, the Judge has stated on the record that there is no evidence to suggest Rebecca saw anyone on the road and even stated that he believes she did not.
4. The police and prosecution insisted on relying on black box data that was clearly wrong and erroneous—data that greatly misrepresented Rebecca’s speed. The truth and indisputable fact that her speed was approximately 51.9 will be shown in court.
5. Video footage (ALSO posted in a link below) from area security cameras (although the original footage was not preserved by Sheriff's) clearly shows several vehicles passing through the crosswalk at the time of the accident, including three vehicles behind Grossman's vehicle that left the scene. NO efforts were made by the prosecution to determine who was driving the other cars that all left the accident scene or whether they were also involved in the accident as reported by THREE eyewitnesses who were present within yards of the accident. Those reports have been concealed from the public by the prosecution.

6. When the Grossmans asked for a limit on the media exposure in the courtroom, it was primarily due to threats made against Rebecca, her family, and the burn centers that stemmed from fake news & social media that included accusations that she was a driver in another accident. They even published her photograph side by side with another family when it was a completely different woman with the same name. The story reran in the Daily Mail four times over a year. This, among other fake stories, was circulated on hundreds of media websites.
7. A story told by a CHP traffic officer, Lefler, was falsified to bring Rebecca's character into question. This particular officer claims that he recalls a story from a routine traffic ticket he gave Grossman nine years ago. This nine-year-old traffic ticket has been used by the prosecution as a basis for claiming that Rebecca had "no regard for human life". The only notes that the officer wrote on the back of the ticket in the designated section for information was that "she was on her way to pick up her kids at school." Now, years later, he supposedly recalls Rebecca "threatening" him and conveyed this to a fellow officer involved directly in the investigation only after he saw the story on the news. This officer also chose to send a representative in his place to tell "this story" at the preliminary hearing to avoid cross-examination by the defense. WHY DID HE REFUSE TO TAKE THE STAND IN PERSON? Furthermore, when the defense requested access to this officer's record, union reps appeared in court to block access to his file. Why? In turn, Judge Samuels approved sealing the officer’s record.
8. Two airbags were deployed at the time of the accident. Vehicles shut down fuel pumps to avoid potential fire when a collision triggers the deployment of airbags. The power is shut off to the vehicle immediately, including to the "black box" that stops writing the report.

This is why Grossman steered her car to the side of the road to get out of traffic. The vehicle's cabin became filled with fog from the sodium oxide (and other chemicals) released from inside the airbag when the emergency bags began to deflate. This chemical causes burning to the eyes, visual impairment, and often triggers asthmatic reactions.
The delays, in this case, have been extremely frustrating for all parties.
There were two videos that captured footage within seconds of the accident, including all of the cars involved. The original footage was erased (destroying evidence) by LASD investigators, claiming "they did not have the updated equipment to download the original copies."
Fortunately, one officer took video of this footage on his personal cell iPhone 7 cell phone of the computer screens at the two locations that captured the original footage. Fortunately, an expert forensic videographer was able to capture speed and other pertinent details from the iPhone footage.
The following video captures all the cars present seconds after the impact (roughly 250 feet past the said crosswalk). Grossman's vehicle (the fourth vehicle of the seven captured traversing the road at the time of the accident) is documented to be traveling approximately 51.9 mph in this footage captured within 2 seconds of the accident. All vehicles in this video have their headlights on, although the prosecution claims there was light outside. The accident took place a half hour after sunset, at 7:10 pm. No investigator attempted to determine how it is physically possible for Rebecca's car to have struck two children on skates, and the cars only seconds in front and behind her vehicle did not. Not one investigator ever tried to find the other vehicles involved or asked to see any vehicle they may have had access to in the days immediately following the accident. Rebecca Grossman was the only driver who stayed after the accident even though her car was still drivable and her home was only blocks away.
Below is witness testimony taken from eyewitness depositions and police reports. In discovery, it was found that witness reports came up missing, and we would like to ask the public again for its help.

Contrary to the information released by the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department (LASD) to the media in a press conference within hours of the accident, the following are statements by eyewitnesses who were on the street in the immediate area. The first witness below has NOT been called as a witness for the prosecution. Factually, this specific witness could not get law enforcement to return her follow-up calls after she gave the report below. She was also one of the first 911 callers.
NOTE: It would be illegal to release false statements. The following statements are taken from police reports, court transcripts, and public/private documents.
WITNESS STATEMENTS:
The witness statement in the police report taken from the father of the children on the night of the accident by a deputy states that he was: "approximately 100 yards behind the family pushing the stroller with the youngest and did not observe the collision occur."
Considering that four of the six remaining family members were the only members on the road ahead (the mother on roller blades who crossed first with the youngest boy (5) on a scooter and the two boys that were involved in the accident on roller blades and a skateboard following behind (8 and 11), were roughly a football field apart from the father who was with the stroller when the accident took place, why was the following statement made to the press by the Sheriff's department only a few hours later when they had the fathers reported statement (above) in hand?
"The father was barely able to get the stroller out of the crosswalk to avoid being hit". This completely untrue statement, among many, was made to dramatize an already horrific accident.
Several of these false statements were later retracted by Captain Becerra, who, at the time, was the Captain of the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff's Department; however, the retraction was too late; the news went viral with the false and inaccurate information, including being posted on the Sheriff's Facebook page during the investigation.
These careless and unverified statements also included claims of the accident being DUI-related, street racing by Grossman's SUV, and the most egregious and false statement of all that claimed that Grossman's vehicle carried a child on the hood for 100 feet. Then she attempted to brake so the child would roll off, in turn, immediately fleeing and running over the child. There is not one witness to corroborate this horrendously untrue statement, and experts confirmed that this accusation is completely false. This blatant lie, among other carelessly fabricated remarks, was made by the Sheriff in a press conference within hours of a terrible accident prior to any investigation, in turn fueling community outrage and biased opinions based on false information. How did these false and insensitive remarks help to ease the pain and suffering of the parents and all involved?
Considering that the mother stated in open court at the preliminary hearing that she did not see the children being struck by a vehicle (contrary to news reports), she deserves to know what exactly happened. In the video captured above, there are three cars that follow Grossman's car. One pulls over as also seen by an eyewitness that night who states that the driver got out to check their bumper before leaving abruptly. However, all three of these vehicles captured on the video footage quickly drive away leaving the area, and were not among any of the 911 callers. You can hear the cars behind Rebecca Grossman's car passing her in her recorded 911 call to the police.
This is NOT the narrative being presented by the prosecution or the press. These are facts that will come out in the trial.
The additional two vehicles that follow Grossman's vehicle appear to be light-colored sedans that approach quickly (within 10 seconds behind Grossman's car) and then drive away, in turn, passing by Grossman's car that was pulled to the side of the road against the curb. A bicyclist witnessed and reported to the police that night that he saw two light-colored sedans racing. The defense believes these were the two vehicles seen in the video above that were behind Grossman's car.
Rebecca remained on the 911 call connected to law enforcement for ten minutes. She then waited by her vehicle as directed for twenty minutes before they arrived. She did not know why her airbags suddenly deployed, and she had no idea that her car had hit someone. Her car was only temporarily disabled after the airbags were deployed but was still drivable.
