A 44-year-old man has been arrested on charges that he deliberately drove his domestic partner and two young sons off a San Pedro pier to collect accidental death insurance policies he had purchased on their lives, federal prosecutors announced Tuesday.
The two boys, 8-year-old Abdelkrim Elmezayen and 13-year-old Elhassan Elmezayen, died at a hospital after the April 9, 2015, car crash. Ali Elmezayen survived by swimming out of a side window, and the boys' mother was rescued by a nearby fisherman. Both children had autism.
Ali Elmezayen, a Hawthorne resident, was arrested last week and is scheduled to appear at a detention hearing Tuesday afternoon, according to a statement from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of California.
