Adil Iqbal had filmed himself reaching speeds of 123mph in his dad's BMW
The heartbroken family of a 'beautiful, kind' mum who lost her life in a crash on the M66 have welcomed a review into her killer's sentence.
Frankie, 38, had pulled over on the hard shoulder with a tyre puncture, with her two sons and nephew in the car. She was making a call to say she would be late when Iqbal’s BMW 140i undertook a motorbike then swerved. He over-compensated and hit a crash barrier before spinning around and ploughing into Ms Jules-Hough’s Skoda Fabia at an estimated 92mph. Ms Jules-Hough, 17 weeks pregnant with her first daughter, Neeve, suffered unsurvivable brain injuries.Her daughter died with her when she passed away two days later in hospital surrounded by her family, having never regained consciousness.
He told the BBC: "I am happy that the appeal has been accepted. This is good news and hopefully the first step towards some form of justice for Frankie and Neeve."
