Three men involved in an alleged drag race in October 2007 have been indicted by a grand jury.

State police say, during the race on Route 42, an accident occurred that killed 18-year-old Brittany Engleman, who was the passenger in one of the cars.

The three men have been indicted on involuntary manslaughter charges, which can carry a sentence of up to 20 years in prison.

Corey Beasley was driving the car from which Engleman was ejected. Police say Torrance Mack and Robert Gaylor were witnesses to the accident.

In court, a state trooper testified that one of the three men beeped his horn three times and then the two cars sped off, like they were racing.

Prosecutor Robin Boylan explains that although the men are being charged with involuntary manslaughter, there’s a more specific technical charge they'll be facing for Engleman's death.

"The charge is involuntary manslaughter, but there’s a technical charge of causing the death of another by racing, and that’s what they're charged with," says Boylan. "It comes under the general heading of involuntary manslaughter."

The next step for the men is to go to trial, which is expected to take place sometime in the fall.
