A Michigan mother with a history of driving violations charge after her three children die when Letitica Marie Gonzales crashes her SUV into an icy pond.  Gonzales boys, all under age 5, drown after being trapped upside down in their carseats, underwater.  Gonzales was impaired at the time, under the influence of a synthetic opioid.   The 30-year-old  charged this week with three counts of driving while intoxicated resulting in death.  Gonzales crossed into oncoming traffic, hit a curb, and rolled her Chevrolet Tahoe onto its roof in a Holland Township pond. Gonzales was able to get out of the SUV, but her three children drowned.  

Gonzales has pleaded guilty at least four times over the past 12 years to driving without a license; she also has pleaded guilty to obtaining controlled substances by false representation, according to a local newspaper.
