A north Minneapolis woman faces criminal vehicular homicide charges stemming from a car crash last summer.
Reshawna Eunique Mosley, 20, faces five separate counts of felony criminal vehicular homicide, according to court records.
According to the criminal complaint, on July 22, 2021, Minnesota State Patrol troopers were called to a crash on I-35E southbound near Shepard Road in St. Paul.

Troopers arrived to find a 2013 Kia Forte in the ditch, and Mosley, the owner and driver of the vehicle, was transported to Regions Hospital with injuries, the complaint states. The 19-year old passenger, previously identified as Shaterries Monique Barlow of Minneapolis, was pronounced dead at the scene.
The complaint says Mosley admitted to consuming tequila before getting behind the wheel.
Mosley told investigators that she was trying to follow another vehicle but “went off the ramp into the ditch,” and accident reconstruction showed Mosley’s Kia Forte was “traveling at 99 miles per hour 5 seconds before the airbag deployed.”
Troopers allegedly recovered a half-empty bottle of alcohol and a small amount of marijuana from the vehicle.
The criminal complaint notes that Mosley had a blood alcohol concentration of .085 and had THC, the active chemical of marijuana, in her blood.
Mosley is not currently in custody, but a warrant has been issued for her arrest, court records show.
