The wacky wigmaker who wantonly mowed down a Brooklyn mom and her two young daughters scored a sweetheart plea deal over the objections of prosecutors.
Miriam Yarimi, 33, pleaded guilty last month to manslaughter after Judge Danny Chun offered a sentence of three to nine years, records show.

XThe deal was far less than the 15-year maximum sentence sought by Brooklyn prosecutors, who plan to submit a letter ahead of her Wednesday sentencing detailing the many reasons they contend Yarimi should be locked up longer, officials said.
Yarimi rocketed her luxury Audi A4 down Ocean Parkway in March and crashed into an Uber, sending her sedan careening into mom Natasha Saada and her three children — killing her daughters Diana, 7, and Deborah, 5, and leaving her 4-year-old Philip grievously injured.
“The lives of Natasha Saada and her young daughters were stolen by the callous choices of a chronically reckless driver on Ocean Parkway,” said Eric Gonzalez, district attorney for Brooklyn, in a statement.
“Though the proposed sentence falls short of the maximum we sought, it will still send a clear message that reckless driving that ends in tragedy will be met with serious penalties.”

The horrific crash devastated south Brooklyn’s tight-knit Jewish community and resurrected long-standing concerns over the dangerous stretch of Ocean Parkway.
Yarimi, a wigmaker whose car sported the license plate “WIGM8KER,” drove on a suspended license after racking up more than 93 traffic violations, including 20 speeding tickets that led to more than $10,000 in fines, according to online records.
She also rattled off a long list of unhinged, hateful rants after the crash, telling first responders she was “possessed” and “had the devil in me,” sources said.

The horrific crash devastated south Brooklyn’s tight-knit Jewish community. Kevin C Downs for NY Post“The devil’s in my eyes,” she told cops, according to a criminal complaint. “I’m haunted inside. I didn’t kill anyone. I didn’t hurt anyone. Prove it. Show me proof.”
Friends have revealed that Yarimi, who had a “nerdy” religious Jewish upbringing, long showed erratic behavior simmering beneath the flashy lifestyle she displayed on social media — with posts highlighting high-end fashion, fast cars and sultry vacation bikini pics.
She won $2 million from a 2023 lawsuit against the NYPD, contending that when she was 14 years old, she was coerced into sex with a uniformed cop, court documents show.
Postings on her Instagram and TikTok accounts are also laced with outlandish and paranoid conspiracy theories.
One bizarre post from 2024 showed her scantily clad and raging at cops as they conducted a psych arrest.
