Melissa Dettlaff, 26, is now facing felony charges in a crash that killed her sister Jessica Ann Dettlaff, 24, in the early morning hours of Wednesday, Feb. 21. on Silverado Ranch Boulevard near Bermuda Road.
A San Mateo County Superior Court judge ruled Monday that Dharmesh Patel, the Southern California doctor accused of intentionally driving his Tesla off a Devil’s Slide cliff with his family in the car, can no longer practice medicine while his attempted murder case is ongoing. The Medical Board of California asked the judge to intervene, calling Patel a “danger to the public,” according to court records. Judge Rachel Holt granted the request.
