AUSTIN (KXAN) — A woman who was arrested in 2022 in connection with a deadly north Austin crash was sentenced to five years of deferred adjudication after pleading guilty to criminal negligent homicide, according to Travis County court records.

Edith Tavera-Camacho was charged in a crash in which she hit and killed a pedestrian in the 12500 block of the North Interstate 35 service road in August 2022, according to Austin police and court records.

According to court documents, Tavera-Camacho was sentenced to five years of deferred adjudication with community supervision. She also must pay $20,000 in restitution, will have to serve 200 hours of community service, will need to take a driving safety course and will have to drive with an ignition interlock device installed.

In Texas, deferred adjudication is a type of probation that allows the person sentenced to keep the conviction off their criminal record.
