KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A Kansas man is the fourth member of his family to die from injuries suffered in a crash that happened more than a year ago as they returned home from watching the man’s sons play in a state high school football championship, according to a prosecutor and funeral home.accordingHe was critically injured in a November 2017 crash that killed his 42-year-old wife, Carmen Ukele; his 11-year-old daughter, Marlee Ukele; and his 62-year-old brother, Stephen Ukele.
The family was returning home from watching two of Lee Ukele’s sons, Tanner and Carson Ukele, win the championship in Hutchinson, Kansas, with their Sabetha High School teammates when the crash occurred. Authorities have said that Maria Perez Marquez, 49, of Omaha, Nebraska, struck the family’s minivan head-on while trying to pass another vehicle on U.S. 75 north of Holton, about 70 miles west of Kansas City.that Lee Ukele’s sons were pulled off the football team bus after a celebratory dinner.
Marquez is scheduled to be sentenced in June on three misdemeanor counts of vehicular homicide and one felony count of aggravated battery. Miller said that “unfortunately” she can’t file additional charges against Marquez because she already pleaded guilty in the case as part of a plea deal. She had originally been charged with three felony counts of involuntary manslaughter. But she said the judge could consider Lee Ukele’s death when making a sentencing decision.
“Obviously, myself and the family will ask for the jail time because of all the loss in this case,” the prosecutor said.
