Who is Dealio Lockhart charged with three murders in fiery crash after racing on 5 freeway in Los Angeles, California

Dealio Lockhart, car racing, crash, accident, dead, injured, los angeles, california, whittier, dodge,charger, challenger, mary cummins, prison, jail, convicted, murder, 

UPDATE: 11/14/2024 Anthony is still in a coma. Dealio Lockhart is no longer in the CDCR system. 

03/26/2022 "In an email distributed Thursday with the subject line “Nonviolent Parole Review Decision,” the California Board of Parole Hearings informed the victims’ families that Lockhart’s parole had been denied.   

“The Board of Parole Hearings has conducted its review and has denied the inmate for release,” the letter reads. “The inmate will likely be screened again for possible referral to the board in a year so long as the inmate remains eligible for the Nonviolent Offender Parole Review Process.”

03/25/2022 Dealio Lockhard denied parole. Thanks to everyone who sent in letters to the parole board. The civil cases haven't even gone to trial yet. Dealio Lockhart is clearly a convicted violent criminal.

"March 23, 2022 Nonviolent Offender Parole Review Inmate was denied release"

02/28/2022 "Dealio Lockhart – who was convicted and sentenced to state prison for more than two decades after pleading guilty to the crash that killed two Valencia teenagers in February 2016 – could be released on parole imminently.  

His release is the outcome of recent changes in the law, through Proposition 57 (The Public Safety and Rehabilitation Act of 2016). "

https://signalscv.com/2022/02/changes-in-law-may-let-prisoner-out-on-parole

Let's not forget about the other people injured in the accident. "Thomas Kwon, burned badly, Javier C. Gonzalez injured and pinned in his vehicle trying to free himself from a certain death, Nicole L. Ruiz, five others were hurt, according to the Los Angeles County Fire Department."

Let's also not forget Dealio's own words.

“HOW MUCH PAIN AND SUFFERING THAT I'VE CAUSED FOR THE FAMILIES, EVERYONE'S FAMILY. THE ONLY REASON THAT I CAN GIVE FOR MY ACTIONS THAT NIGHT IS A PURELY SELFISH ONE AND THAT'S BECAUSE I WANTED TO WIN, AND WITH THAT SELFISH MINDSET I HAVE CREATED A TRAGEDY THAT'S GOING TO FOREVER BE ON THE FOREFRONT OF MY MIND EVERY SINGLE NIGHT UNTIL THE DAY THAT I DIE.” - Dealio Lockhart  

“Adding insult to real-life injury and death, detectives say Lockhart displayed no concern for what happened, not even offering to assist the injured." "We have witnesses say he was in his car looking for his phone," said Boskovich. "That speaks volumes to me at what type of person this was." 

Dealio Lockhart was scrubbing his social media and internet tracks which showed his extensive car racing history at the crime scene instead of helping victims of the crash he caused. 

02/20/2022 I sent in an email to the Parole Board about my concerns. Dealio Lockhart is not a nonviolent prisoner based on his original charges and actions. He is a danger to society because he could easily re-offend as there are no restrictions on his driver's license or driving. His driver's license was only suspended for three years for vehicular manslaughter, if it was ever suspended. He may have to apply for a new driver's license. 

From a comment:

"There will not be a hearing that anyone can attend, not even a representative from the district attorneys office to argue against release. PLEASE email objections of early release to:

Prop57victim@lacounty.gov

You must include your name, telephone number, address, the case number (BA444552) in the email you send. OR

Proposition 57 Paralegal

Los Angeles District Attorney

Parole Revocation Section

Lynwood CA 90262

Must be received by Friday Feb 25, 2022

This information can include any concerns about the release of Lockhart, may include safety of the general public.

Please remember Lockhart intentionally bought a car to race, recklessly raced with no regard for others, had a history of at least one other crash a couple other speeding tickets, even in other states. Three people died, one is still in a coma, several others sustained life-altering injuries and disfigurement.

02/19/2022 Dealio Lockhart wants to get out on parole. He was referred for parole because he was classified as a "nonviolent offender." I beg to differ. He killed three people and almost killed two more by racing at high speed on the freeway. I believe one is still in a coma and could still die from the accident. People will be speaking out against his release. I'll post the contact here for the parole board so everyone can write letters opposing his release. 

04/2019 He was sentenced to 22 years in prison. It's only been three years since he was sentenced and six years since he's been in jail. He "pleaded guilty March 8 to three counts of vehicular manslaughter, four counts of engaging in a speed vehicle contest and 11 counts of assault likely to cause great bodily injury." 

I can't find the exact sentence at the moment because lacourt.org is down. It's up now. Sentencing as follows: He actually got a six year sentence and not 22 years. He was only sentenced for one murder and not three. The other sentences don't matter when it comes to parole. They all run concurrently anyway. Everyone was saying that 22 years is a long sentence. Not when you consider parole. He clearly got off light as Prop 57 passed before he was sentenced. Let's see if he gets out on parole or not. Some say vehicular manslaughter is a violent crime but legally it's not unless he intentionally set out to murder the specific people that he killed. Definition of violent crimes per California penal code 667.5 (c). He knew there was a good chance that someone would die from reckless high speed racing. He was originally charged with three counts of second degree murder which is a violent crime.

Count 1 192 (C)(1) Vehicular Manslaughter  6 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON. "192.  Manslaughter is the unlawful killing of a human being without malice. (c) Vehicular—(1) Except as provided in subdivision (a) of Section 191.5, driving a vehicle in the commission of an unlawful act, not amounting to a felony, and with gross negligence; or driving a vehicle in the commission of a lawful act which might produce death, in an unlawful manner, and with gross negligence."

Count 2 (same charge) " 16 MONTH(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 3 " 16 MONTH(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 4 23109.1 motor vehicle contest causing injury 8 MONTH(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 5 " 8 MONTH(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 6 " 8 MONTH(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 7 " 8 MONTH(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 8 245(A)(4) assault likely to cause great bodily injury 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 9 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 10 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 11 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 12 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 13 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 14 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 15 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 16 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 17 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

Count 18 " 1 YEAR(S) IN ANY STATE PRISON

"Is Vehicular Manslaughter a Violent Crime?

While it may be a serious charge, vehicular manslaughter is generally not considered to be a violent crime from a legal standpoint. However, laws can change and vary from state to state. For something to be considered a violent crime, the victim has to have been threatened with or harmed by violence. Even if you are responsible for a fatal accident, this is not considered to be violent if you did not intend to harm the other person."

Remember, Dealio was deleting his car racing photos, videos, history while he was at the crime scene. That's how I got involved. I heard about the crash that night then searched him asap. I saw the photos, videos and profiles disappearing so I saved them from cache and his friend's profiles. By the morning they were gone and his friends made their profiles or that content private. He knew he committed a crime and was trying to hide evidence that he was a known reckless car racer. People saw him on his phone at the crime scene.

Inmate Name LOCKHART, DEALIO M

Age 41

Admission Date 04/26/2019

Current Location California Medical Facility - I don't believe he has a physical ailment. Maybe he has a mental health issue.

Pending Board Actions

Date Action Status

January 2022 Nonviolent Offender Parole Review Inmate was referred to the board for possible release as a nonviolent offender

Parole Eligible Date (Month/Year) 03/2022

"Once an inmate is determined to be eligible for the process, the department will determine when the inmate will have served the full term of his or her primary offense. This date is called the inmate's nonviolent parole eligible date (NPED)." 

"The maximum misdemeanor sentence for vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence is one (1) year in county jail—and the maximum felony sentence is six (6) years in state prison. But if you acted with only ordinary negligence, then Penal Code 192(c) is a misdemeanor."

This would cause one to be deemed unsuitable for parole i.e. "demonstrating an exceptionally callous disregard for human suffering." This is per the California Prison and Parole Handbook 2019.

Here is video of Dealio Lockhart in the same car probably on the same freeway showing what a bad ass driver he is. I looked at the video frame by frame. It starts out near the ocean maybe San Pedro. There are crumbling palisades to the left. He turns out of a parking lot then eventually on to a freeway. Next there is a sign for the Long Beach 710 freeway. He appears to be going north west. He drives into the sun setting and exposure changes. Then it's night time. In one frame he edited out the bottom left corner. I think it was a license plate of another car.

Donald Trump is so cheap that his helicopter almost crashed, and other stories of him being cheap - Republican, GOP

I previously posted on my real estate blog about being one of the real estate appraisers for the Ambassador Hotel here in Los Angeles, California. Nate Holder was a City Councilmember at that time for the district which includes the Ambassador Hotel.

Donald Trump was in talks with the owners of the hotel and the city to purchase the hotel so he could build the tallest building on the site. Donald Trump was working the Schine family who owned the hotel and the city who wanted to take it by eminent domain to build a school. Trump also met with Nate Holden a few times as he was the City Councilmember for the district.

Here is the most recent Facebook post by Nate Holden about Donald Trump. Trump is so cheap that he doesn't properly maintain his limousine or his helicopter. One of his helicopters crashed due to brake issues. Trump has the nerve to invite Nate Holden to New York, offer him a place to stay at his hotel, offer him lunch then he makes Nate pay for it! I absolutely believe this story based on my experiences.


And now the story gets even worse. Donald Trump's people did die in a helicopter crash. Here is the initial article. See Trump saying his employees were just the best ever. After the Taj Majal failed he blamed all the problems and failure on his dead employees in the media and lawsuits. Nice guy.

http://www.nytimes.com/1989/10/11/nyregion/copter-crash-kills-3-aides-of-trump.html

Then the story gets even worse. Trump then lies and stated he was scheduled to be on the flight that crashed. He "cheated death." That was completely false.

Loma Vista fatal auto crashes in Beverly Hills - Mary Cummins, real estate appraiser

By now most people in Los Angeles have heard about two fatal auto accidents on the same street in the same location within the two months. Two LAPD officers were killed in two separate incidents. They were both killed when large trucks lost control going down the steep street and crashed into the cars. From LA Weekly,

"This is the third accident on Loma Vista involving a heavy haul truck in the past two months. On Friday, March 7, a Los Angeles Police officer was killed and his partner injured when a runaway truck collided with a patrol car. On Friday, May 2, 2014, a cement truck was traveling southbound Loma Vista Drive when it struck several parked cars along Loma Vista Drive. The truck driver sustained non - life threatening injuries."

A car and a regular truck were hit head on by the large, heavy trucks which had lost their brakes because of the weight of their vehicles and the steep grade. The car and regular truck were crushed by the trucks. More from the LA Weekly below.

Here is a terrain, topographical map of the area. I grew up in this area. There are some steep, narrow streets. Loma Vista is actually a wider street. Both cops were killed at the bottom of the hill.

Loma Vis
Below is an article that describes what happens when a large, heavy vehicle goes down a steep grade.

http://www.caranddriver.com/features/runaway-truck-ramps-explained-feature

I believe this street has a runaway ramp on the west side near the bottom. It is not big enough for a truck but it might stop a regular car. I personally feel they shouldn't allow large heavy vehicles down this street. They can go up but not down. Obviously if they can't go down this street, they will have to go down a street which is not as steep which will be a longer route. I believe there are already signs in the area that says "no vehicles over ... tons." Perhaps they can make steep streets one way only going up.

Beverly Hills released this statement,

"The City of Beverly Hills is aware of the concerns from the community regarding commercial vehicles traveling along Loma Vista Drive and surrounding streets. This is a critical public safety issue, which the Beverly Hills Police Department and other City departments are aggressively working together to mitigate future accidents. The police department has significantly stepped up traffic enforcement and commercial vehicle enforcement efforts in the Trousdale area since the beginning of the year. They have also deployed two speed radar trailers on Loma Vista."

Having speed radar trailers will not help at all. When a big truck is careening down a steep street totally out of control knowing how fast he is going won't stop his truck. I think the cement truck tried to slow down by hitting parked cars. That probably slowed him a little. But when he got to the curve at the bottom his truck tipped over and landed on the regular truck crushing it. He tipped because of his speed, weight, center of mass and the curve. I personally don't take that street because it's so steep. I also never drive on La Cienega to Sunset because that street is also very steep.

The first accident was a Beverly Hills trash truck. Obviously they must pick up trash on both sides of the street so they have to go down the street. Perhaps they should go down the street before they go up so they will have less weight. Or they could make everyone put their trash cans on only the up side of the street. They will have to do something now because you know the first officer killed by the trash truck is going to sue the City. Below are some ideas.


1. Don't allow heavy trucks, RVs, large moving vans... to go DOWN the very steep streets in the City. They can only go UP those streets. It would be one way only for large trucks. Trucks don't lose control going up, only going down. This would mean residents on those very steep streets should put their trash cans on the up side of the street.This way trash trucks only have to go up and not down. There should be a "no parking on (whatever day is trash day for that street)" sign on the up side of the street so there's more room for trash cans. This should be based on the angle of the incline and curves in the road besides the distance. The longer you are in a steep decline, the more likely you are to lose control. Plus the greater the speed you will be going at the end of the decline.

2. Don't allow heavy trucks on any steep streets in the City. This might be easier for truckers to understand than just not allowing them to go down. Post signs.

3. Make the super steep streets one way only going up. Offer residents and their contractors other routes on less steep streets. Not all truckers would see a sign that says up only for trucks especially if they don't speak English. If you made it one way for everyone, they would see that sign and understand. Of course it'd be a hassle for some residents.

4. Add parking signs which instruct people to angle their tires into the curb if they park on steep streets. Common sense says one should do this but most people don't. Trucks and cars have gone out of control down steep streets while unoccupied especially if it rains or floods.


Homes located on steep hills are generally worth less unless they have a killer view. People do not like living on steep hills. Runaway cars is an issue even for a parked car. Plus, you will get more rain run off, possible landslides, flooding, mud.
