Khyree Jackson was in the passenger seat of a Dodge Charger driven by former high school teammate Isaiah Hazel, with another former teammate, Anthony Lytton, when he was killed along with his two friends back in 2024.

The Minnesota Vikings cornerback never got a chance to realize his NFL dream after being selected in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL Draft with the 108th overall pick.

According to Maryland State Police, Cori Clingman was driving an Infinity Q5 north on Route 4 Pennsylvania Avenue when it hit the Dodge Charger.

Things have certainly changed almost one year later.

That woman has been indicted in connection to a crash that killed Minnesota Vikings rookie cornerback Khyree Jackson in July 2024.

Prince George’s County state attorney Aisha Braveboy announced on Thursday that a grand jury returned a 13-count indictment against Cori Clingman, which included counts of vehicular manslaughter and driving while under the influence of alcohol.

 

Clingman is currently in custody pending a bond review.

She is facing a total of 13 charges and a maximum sentence of 30 years.

Clingman is accused by police of speeding and hitting Khyree Jackson’s car as she was attempting to make a lane change – causing the Vikings player’s Dodger Charger to go off the road and strike multiple tree stumps.
