"I hope you remember the damage you've done," Galve said in court. In her tearful statement, Galve said she raised her children to be smart and thoughtful, and now she and her family will not be able to see them grow up."
"She said she remembers Ramone as smart and strong, a volleyball player dedicated to getting good grades and well-liked at school. She described Jace as smart, compassionate and responsible. When she worked long hours, he would help with his siblings. He was thoughtful and kind, she said."
"Mya, she said, was a funny and vibrant social butterfly and a ray of sunshine. She said she was well behaved, would clean up after herself and was very independent."
On May 18, 2025, a speeding impaired driver in a Dodge Caravan lost control exiting Highway 401 in Etobicoke, crossed a median, and collided with a stopped Chrysler Pacifica minivan carrying a family returning from Victoria Day fireworks. Three children—Ramone (15), Jace (13), and Mya Lavina-Galve (6)—died in the crash. The mother, Jade Galve, survived along with her partner and another son. Ethan Lehouillier, 20, pleaded guilty to three counts of impaired driving causing death and three counts of impaired driving causing bodily harm. During sentencing proceedings, Galve delivered a tearful victim impact statement describing her deceased children's positive qualities and expressing the family's loss.
