Los Angeles socialite Rebecca Grossman was accompanied by her daughter and husband as she headed to jury selection in her hit-and-run trial.
Grossman, 60, is accused of running over two young boys — Jacob Iskander, 8, and Mark Iskander, 11 — while driving drunk, killing them in 2020.
He faces two counts of second-degree murder in their deaths and could face up to 34 years in prison for his alleged role.
Grossman was seen on Friday walking alongside her plastic surgeon husband Peter and their daughter.
The family of three looked sad as they headed to the Nuys West Courthouse for the second day of jury selection.
Grossman, who was hiding behind a face mask, wore a dark blue patterned shirt with a black sweater over it and her hair was pulled back neatly. She accessorized with a pair of kitten heels and a small black bag.

Her husband appeared for the second day of court, wearing a brown blazer matched with his tie with a light blue button down and dark trousers. She also wears a face mask, while their daughter chooses to wear a thick gray sweater and black pants and pull her blonde hair into a braid, sans mask.
Grossman has been accused of racing with her ex-boyfriend MLB Scott Erickson, who was in another car at the time of the fatal crash.
The socialite allegedly drove 81 mph and blew 0.076%.
He insisted he did not hit the boys, but their grieving mother, Nancy Iskander, said the two cars were traveling at “crazy” speeds. Nancy herself was nearly hit but managed to grab her five-year-old son Zachery and dive out of the way.
After the boy was hit, Mark was launched more than 250 feet, killing him. Jacob died a few hours later at the hospital.

“They were zigzagging each other as if they were playing or racing,” he told the Los Angeles Times.
The pair, said to be in a relationship, had been drinking at a nearby restaurant before the crash. Grossman was also found to have Valium in his blood.
Courts will be allowed to prove to jurors that the surgeon’s wife was in the midst of an affair with Erickson at the time of the crash, according to a recent ruling by Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Joseph Brandolino.

“They don’t stop at the intersection. They don’t stop when an 11-year-old is on the hood of a car. No one stopped,” said Nancy.
Erickson was charged with a misdemeanor and his case was settled in February 2022.
The socialite also faces two counts of vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence and one count of hit-and-run driving causing death.
Rebecca is currently out on $2 million bond and faces up to 34 years in prison if convicted.
