Obdulia Sanchez, an 18-year old from California, is under arrest after she lost control of her car over the weekend while filming a livestream for Instagram.
Incredibly, and tragically, she continued to film the video after the accident took place … while her younger sister lay dying on the ground.
According to The California Highway Patrol, Sanchez lost control of her 2003 Buick, drove the vehicle off the edge of the road and then over-corrected.
The car eventually crashed into a barbed-wire fence and flipped over in a field.
Authorities estimate that the car was going about 75 miles per hour when it crashed.
Most of the incident was captured on Sanchez’s camera.
After a gap in the livestream, Obdulia, who was behind the wheel at the time of the accident, can be seen seen leaning over the body of her 14-year old sister, Jacqueline, trying to shake her awake.
In the background, another passenger is heard crying and screaming.
Obdulia Sanchez filmed herself singing and gesturing to the camera before a deadly crash that killed her younger sister.
Police have confirmed that the two passengers were not wearing seatbelts, and that Jacqueline died at the scene of the crash.
Her unnamed friend, meanwhile, survived with a leg injury.
"Jacqueline, please wake up. I f-cking killed my sister, OK?" Sanchez says on the Livestream, which appeared online.
"I know I’m going to jail for life. I love my sister… this is the last thing I thought was going to happen to us."
While the surviving broke down in tears alongside her, Sanchez continued as follows:
“I don’t f-ckin care though,” she said on camera, adding:
“I’m a hold it down. I love you, rest in peace, sweetie."
"If you don’t survive, baby, I am so f-ckin sorry," she continued, clearly distraught. "I did not mean to kill you, sweetie."
"Sweetie, I am f-ckin sorry. Sweetie, please, wake up!”
Obdulia Sanchez was later arrested on suspicion of drunken driving and vehicular manslaughter and remains in jail with bail set at $300,000.
The Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke told ABC affiliate KFSN that the deceased was ejected from the automobile, ending her life.
Jacqueline “was in the back seat of the vehicle and allegedly unseatbelted, and upon the vehicle rolling over, it ejected her and killed her.”
This shocking and tragic incident comes on the heels of teens in Florida accused of taunting and filming a man as he drowned.
Jacqueline Sanchez was supposed to celebrate her quinceañera on Sunday, according to a GoFundMe page set up to help cover the dead teen’s funeral expenses.
Nicandro Sanchez, the father of Obdulia and her late sister, talked to this same ABC affiliate and said that he has seen the video.
He and his wife Gloria are both aware of what happened and the footage of it, but believe the crash was merely an "accident."
Of the driver, he says: "What I think is she knows she’s done something wrong. Because she knows, and that’s what I feel."
She feels bad for herself, but she killed her own sister."
California Highway Patrol Sergeant Darin Heredia told BuzzFeed News that officials were “well aware” of the video.
Officials currently are attempting to determine whether it’s legitimate and, if so, whether Sanchez’s phone use contributed to the crash.
If so, it could be used as evidence against her in an upcoming prosecution, depending on what an examination of the video reveals.
Neither Obdulia Sanchez nor a lawyer representing her could be reached for comment as of this report.
She is expected in court on Wednesday for a hearing.
