A Wichita woman was sentenced to prison for the traffic death of a man on a motorcycle in southeast Wichita.
Lila Garcia, 27 of Wichita, was sentenced to 32 months in prison with 24 months of post release.
On August 11th, 2021 at Pawnee and Woodlawn, Garcia's eastbound car turned in front of a westbound motorcycle being driven by Albert Ortiz-Carrasco, 34 of Wichita. Ortiz-Carrasco died at the scene. Garcia did not stop after the crash and drove north on Woodlawn.
Deputies later found Garcia's car at her home in the 900 block of S. Fabrique.
