On Halloween 2006, 18-year-old Nikki Catsouras wrecked her father’s Porsche 911 Carrera. She tried to change lanes when she impacted another vehicle, lost control, and flew across the traffic lanes, over the median of the highway, and into a concrete toll booth.
Catsouras’s body was still strapped to the driver’s seat when the police arrived. But it was no longer linked to her head.
The images of the horrific passing of young Nikki Catsouras ended up online, where they soon became viral. Rather than posting memorial images, Catsouras’ horrific accident photos were uploaded to MySpace pages.

All of it began with a standard argument between parents and teenagers after Nikki was discovered smoking discreetly inside the home.
“Nikki broke a house rule and we had a disagreement, and I took her car keys away,” said Christos Catsouras, Nikki’s father.
Her father had no idea the next day is going to be the last time he will ever see his daughter whom he called “Angel.”
When Nikki was eight years old, doctors discovered a tumor in her brain that they initially didn’t think she would survive. Although the tumor ended up being benign, the intensive radiation treatment Nikki underwent had lasting effects on the young girl.
Doctors warned her parents, Christos and Lesli, that side effects might one day surface, possibly impacting Nikki’s impulse control and judgment.
