Misdemeanor manslaughter charged in 2008 fatality crash


   A 16-year-old Stites teen has been charged with misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter in connection with a fatality vehicle accident east of Kooskia last November.
   A July 13 evidentiary hearing has been set for Lyndsey M. Doll in juvenile court.
   The charge resulted from a Nov. 30, 2008, one-vehicle crash on U.S. Highway 12 in which Doll lost control of her 1999 Pontiac Grand Am while driving at a high rate of speed and sideswiped a tree.
   Brianna M. Broncheau. 16, of Kooskia, died at the scene of injuries suffered in the accident. Doll and a second passenger were hospitalized. None of the three was wearing a seat belt.
   Idaho code has three gradings for vehicular manslaughter, two of which are felonies -- either involving gross negligence or driving under the influence -- and one a misdemeanor. Misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter is defined by Idaho code as commission of an unlawful act, not amounting to a felony, without gross negligence.
