Detectives said on Friday that if there were more fatalities as a result of the crash--more charges would be added.
The 4th homicide charge was expected after a 6-year-old girl injured in the crash last Sunday died early Saturday, a spokesman for the Nassau County District Attorney's Office.
Police say Michael DeAngelo was driving 120 mph, under the influence of cocaine and fentanyl, when he slammed into multiple cars, killing three and critically injuring two others.
She had been hospitalized with catastrophic injuries since Sunday's crash, which that day killed three other family members.
Police charged Gabriel Grande, 30, of East Meadow, with DWI after he allegedly drove drunk westbound in the eastbound lanes of the highway in Sayville.
