<strong>Antonio Dumay waits for answers regarding the death of his son Richecarde Dumay, and two soccer teammates, the Desir brothers by a driver in the horrific crash that claimed three young lives</strong></h6>
</div>
<div>Po<span style="font-size: inherit;">lice said she reeked of alcohol and admitted to Aventura Hospital staff she had been out drinking. Four hours after the collision her blood alcohol was double the legal limit.<br />
</span><span style="font-size: inherit;">The Herald reports Coulibaly racked up massive debts totaling $325,000, much of it stemming from her previous driving offenses.</span><span style="font-size: inherit;"><img class="size-full wp-image-320215 alignleft" src="https://konniemoments.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Mariam-Coulibaly-2.png" alt="Mariam Coulibaly 2" width="309" height="629"></span><span style="font-size: inherit;"><br />
Coulibaly filed for federal bankruptcy in April, stating she owed $218,404 in medical bills to Jackson Health Systems after a 2017 car accident.<br />
</span><span style="font-size: inherit;">Coulibaly was cited for speeding in 2013 when her Infiniti M35 crashed into a Jeep Cherokee from behind, running it off the road and into a concrete barrier on State Road 9 in Dania Beach.<br />
</span><span style="font-size: inherit;">The Cherokee hit a third car and the driver of the vehicle, Catherine Jean, won over $11,000.<br />
</span><span style="font-size: inherit;">In 2014, Avis sued Coulibaly for nearly $10,000 after someone stole a car she rented from the company when she allegedly left the keys in the vehicle.<br />
</span><span style="font-size: inherit;">Coulibaly didn&#8217;t respond to both lawsuits.<br />
</span><span style="font-size: inherit;">Seven of the infractions are from Broward County where in 2015 she was caught twice driving with a suspended license, expired tag and speeding.<br />
A total of 35 infractions are connected to Miami-Dade County.<br />
In January 2015, Coulibaly was cited for careless driving after she rear-ended a family&#8217;s SUV but the ticket was later dismissed.<br />
That February she was involved in two hit-and-runs. On Valentine&#8217;s Day she veered into another lane &#8216;for no apparent reason&#8217; on the Florida Turnpike, fled the scene in a panic only to be captured 11 days later.<br />
She was also cited for an incident on February 18 where she blew through a red light and T-boned a vehicle but witnesses got her licence plate details. Coulibaly was ordered to traffic school.<br />
Her second Florida Turnpike incident came that December when she hit a sign on the side of the road and a guardrail but the case was dismissed due to no witnesses appearing in court.<br />
In 2016 Coulibaly was cited for blowing five red lights but four tickets got dismissed and the one she pleaded no contest to was never paid. Coulibaly&#8217;s licence was suspended again.<br />
