A pregnant mother was killed in a crash with a boxer suspected of driving under the influence. Tony Shin reports on NBC4 News at 6 p.m. on Sept. 11, 2018. (Published Tuesday, Sept. 11, 2018)

A 29-year-old pregnant woman was killed by a suspected drunk driver in Hemet, and the woman's husband heard the crash live on the phone, while the suspect livestreamed the aftermath before getting arrested.

Police said Krystil Kincaid, the victim, was heading north on Warren Road when the suspected drunk driver, who was travelling south on Warren Road, veered into her lane and crashed into her minivan.

Zach Kinkaid, Krystil's husband, was on the phone with his eight months pregnant wife when the fatal head-on collision occurred.

"She yelled and she screamed in terror," Zach Kinkaid says. "It was a mixture of impending doom, realization she wasn't ever going to see her kids again."

The widower adds emotionally, "I heard the crash. I heard the tumbling and then, silence."

Tragically, Krystil Kinkaid and her unborn baby girl later died at the hospital, leaving her husband with three children and no mother.

"All I could think is how...how am I supposed to get my kids and tell them they don't have a mom anymore?" Zach Kinkaid said.

The suspected drunk driver in the BMW was identified as Marcos Forestal, a boxer. After the crash, Forestal livestreamed the aftermath of the crash and blamed the other driver for crossing in front of him.

"All I could see in the background...my wife dying," Zach Kinkaid says about the online video.

Police arrested Forestal on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol.

"You were worried about your car and blamed my daughter when you were the one who was drinking," Veronica Bentley, the victim's mother, says and refers to Forestal as a "monster."

Zach Kincaid adds, "I wish he could look at my children and their brown eyes and suffer like them."

Forestal faces charges including vehicular manslaughter, and his bail has been set at $75,000.

The family has set up a GoFundMe for a memorial for the victim.

From the husband's Facebook post:

A drunk driver speeding down a two lane highway at 85+mph in the wrong lane around a blind corner destroyed my family. The max sentence for killing my wife and daughter is 10 years max. The state of California doesn't think there was intent, but I know driving recklessly in that manner, he didn't intend anything good.... my daughter's due date was October 9th, a 36 week old fully developed baby isnt considered a person in the state of California. How do I explain to my children this injustice. My children and I have never felt so disposable... Look at the devastation left behind that is my family and tell me it isn't time for change....imagine if this was your family... Who will fight with me for change? Who will spread this like wild fire? Who will write their representatives and demand change?? We cannot as a society look the other way any longer. Driving drunk is intent.

I have a love-hate relationship with this sub as articles like this can ruin my day. I mean come on, the husband was on the phone and heard the crash and his wife's screams. He lost a wife and an 8 month old prenatal child. The accused drunk driver, instead of helping her, starts recording vehicle damage and blaming the victim for the accident...
