Woman who fled U.S. after fatal Henrico crash is extradited back from Spain
A Salvadoran woman who fled the country last year after facing a manslaughter charge in a crash that killed a Henrico County woman in 2018 was extradited back to the United States on Thursday to stand trial.
Osmaira E. Mendez-Urdaneta, 49, was taken into custody by Henrico police crash team investigators at Dulles International Airport and served with outstanding warrants charging her with involuntary manslaughter and failure to appear in court, a Henrico police spokesman said.
Mendez-Urdaneta, who immigration authorities said was living in the U.S. illegally, fled the country sometime last year as she was facing a manslaughter charge for an Aug. 16, 2018, crash in which her vehicle veered off the road and struck Beverly Paige Bourgeois, who was doing yard work along North Parham Road near Tucker High School.
