SUMMARY: Beth Ann White, 52, was found guilty of causing a crash that killed a mother and her six-month-old son, resulting in life-threatening injuries to the surviving children. She was convicted of four counts of aggravated DUI and faces up to 25 years in prison per count. Her attorney has filed a motion asking the court to disregard the jury's verdict, arguing that there was insufficient evidence, bias, and an impossibility in determining White's blood alcohol content at the time of the crash. White's sentencing is scheduled for May 15, where the court will make a decision based on the jury's verdict.
