A Los Angeles socialite who was convicted of murder for killing two young boys with her car during a chase her with lover whined to the judge that she has suffered enough ahead of her sentencing on Monday.
Rebecca Grossman, 60 — who killed brothers Jacob, 8, and Mark Iskander, 11, in a hit-and-run incident in 2020 — made a desperate plea to Superior Court Judge Joseph Brandolino to go easy on her as prosecutors demanded she receive 34 years to life in state prison.
Her lawyers are arguing she should be let off with probation.
“I am not a murderer, and I ask you to recognize that true fact,” Grossman wrote in a letter to the judge — despite being convicted of second-degree murder in February.
“My pain, my recognition of the pain the Iskanders suffer, and the pain I watch my family endure, are punishments that I already suffer and will for the rest of my life,” she added.
“Please consider this suffering when you consider what more punishment to impose on me in this case.”
