Rebecca Grossman, the woman convicted in the 2020 hit-and-run deaths of two young brothers in Westlake Village, recently requested that the boys’ mother visit her in prison, the mother said.
“Last week, Rebecca Grossman-the woman who killed my two precious boys, Mark and Jacob, by speeding through a crosswalk-made a request that I would go visit her in prison… to ‘see the circumstances she is in.’ And that she is ‘A victim,'” Nancy Iskander wrote in a statement posted Wednesday on X. “I’m still trying to process how someone could make such a request.”
Grossman was sentenced in June 2024 to 15 years to life in prison for the deaths of Mark, 11, and Jacob, 8. A Los Angeles jury in February 2024 found Grossman guilty on all counts: Two felony counts each of second-degree murder and gross vehicular manslaughter, and one felony count of hit-and-run driving resulting in death.
“While I can only imagine how difficult her life behind bars must be, the truth is this: I would trade places with her in a heartbeat,” Nancy Iskander’s social media post said this week. “I would live in any prison cell, under any conditions, for the rest of my life… if it meant my beautiful boys could be alive again-laughing, dreaming, growing up, and chasing every beautiful future they deserved.”
Iskander said she had previously asked the court for a no-contact order when Grossman sent her a letter after her conviction, adding that “this time the request came via an attorney.”
L.A. socialite Rebecca Grossman, who was convicted for the death of two young brothers in a hit-and-run crash in 2020, was sentenced to 15 years to life.
In March, a state appeals court panel upheld Grossman’s conviction.
Prosecutors argued during the trial that the socialite and her then-boyfriend — former Dodger Scott Erickson — had been out for drinks earlier that evening and were heading toward her nearby home in separate vehicles when Grossman’s white Mercedes-Benz SUV struck the boys while they were crossing Triunfo Canyon Road with their parents and siblings in a marked crosswalk.
