A 32-year-old man has been warned he is likely to be jailed after he admitted killing a woman in a high-speed car crash in north London on Christmas Day 2022.

Evan Forde, from Bedford, was driving a black Mercedes car at speeds of up to 140pm on Hendon Way, Brent Cross, when he crashed into the back of a BMW.

Maria Carolina Do Nascimento, 22, a passenger in the BMW, died at the scene.

On Tuesday at the Old Bailey, Forde pleaded guilty to causing Ms Nascimento’s death by dangerous driving.
