The triple-murder street racing suspect, Dealio Lockhart, 37, received a Nov. 27 court date for his alleged involvement in a street race that ended in three deaths, several murder charges and a specialized investigation by CHP experts.

“(Lockhart) was in today for a preliminary setting and returns on November 27,” said Ricardo Santiago, a spokesman for the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.

Lockhart was charged with three counts of second-degree murder and four counts of reckless driving causing injury after a Feb. 27 collision that killed Santa Clarita residents Brian Lewandowski, 18 and Michelle Littlefield, 19; as well as UPS driver Scott Treadway, 52.

All three died on scene after a collision prompted the UPS truck to go airborne and crash over the center median, shearing the top off of the Nissan in which Littlefield and Lewandowski were passengers.

In addition to the three fatalities, four others were seriously injured: two males in the Nissan and a man and a woman in separate cars.

The complicated nature of the crash, which called for a detailed investigation by the California Highway Patrol’s MAIT team (a Multidisciplinary Accident Investigation Team that specializes in crash investigation), has resulted in delays.

If convicted, Lockhart could be facing life in prison.
