How they died
Vehic/Purs
A blinking blue taillight, not an approved color, drew police attention to a borrowed 1989 Prelude. Gonzales was the passenger, her male friend the driver. The driver had warrants and led police on a reckless multi-agency 14-minute chase, with Gonzales frantically signalling inside the car. This ended with a crash that killed her. Her family settled a suit for $650,000 with the city.
