Khamseh has been charged with driving under the influence, hit and run and mayhem, in addition to special allegations for inflicting great bodily injury on children under five and having been previously convicted of a serious felony. Khamseh has been denied bail due to a parole and an immigration hold; he was convicted of making terrorist threats and petty theft in 2008, and has been charged with several traffic violations.
This case is tragically similar to a case Callahan & Blaine successfully settled in Orange County, California. In that case two joggers were hit and paralyzed by a drunk driver. Attorney Daniel J. Callahan knew from previous experience that the intersection was dangerous and that the city of Dana Point, California had failed to do anything about it. In the Dana Point case, Callahan & Blaine achieved a record-breaking $50 million settlement for the injured joggers, and convinced the city of Dana Point to make the highway safer for pedestrians.
