UPPER MARLBORO, Md. – Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Tara Jackson has announced that 25-year-old Cori Clingman has been sentenced to 15 years in prison, suspending all but 3 years, after being convicted of three counts of negligent homicide under the influence of alcohol. 

In July 2024, Clingman and the victims, 24-year-old Khyree Jackson, 23-year-old Isaiah Hazel, and 24-year-old Anthony Lytton, Jr., who were all friends traveling from the same location, were both driving at high speeds in separate vehicles on MD-4 also known as Pennsylvania Avenue. 

The investigation revealed that Clingman’s reckless and impaired driving caused the incident that led to the crash, killing all three young men inside the other car.  

“This case is a painful reminder of how one reckless decision can permanently alter countless lives,” said State’s Attorney Jackson. “It was heartbreaking to hear Khyree, Isaiah, and Anthony’s parents speak of their children’s dreams being taken away; children they can no longer raise, guide, or protect. While today’s sentence holds the defendant accountable, it cannot undo their loss. I hope this outcome deters even one person from speeding recklessly or driving impaired and helps prevent another family and community from enduring this kind of loss.”
