A successful businesswoman’s journey from trauma survivor to perpetrator reveals the dangerous intersection of untreated mental health, unchecked privilege, and deadly consequences.
The Moment Everything Changed
March 29th, 2025. 1:00 PM. Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn.
What should have been a peaceful Saturday afternoon became a nightmare that would haunt an entire community. Natasha Sada, 35, walked hand-in-hand with her three young children — Diana, 8; Deborah, 5; and Philip, 4 — as they made their way home from synagogue. The traffic light glowed red. They had the right of way.
They never saw the blue missile coming.
Miriam Yarimi, 32, wasn’t just driving — she was flying. Her 2023 Audi A3 tore through Ocean Parkway at nearly 70 mph in a 25 mph zone. The gas pedal pressed to the floor. No brakes. No hesitation. No mercy.
The impact was so violent that Miriam’s car flipped upside down and skidded 130 feet down the asphalt. Three bodies lay motionless on the street, their lives extinguished in an instant.
But perhaps the most chilling part of this true story wasn’t the crash itself — it was what happened next.
