An 18-year-old charged with causing a car crash that killed two of his high school classmates and injured a pregnant woman and her baby made his first court appearance on Tuesday.
Abraham Miranda, of Salt Lake City, was charged last week in 3rd District Court with two second-degree felony counts of manslaughter and one count of class A misdemeanor reckless endangerment in connection with the February crash.
On Tuesday, a judge found Miranda indigent and appointed counsel to represent him. A scheduling hearing is set for Aug. 18.
The fatal crash occurred on Feb. 16 at about 11:30 a.
