The accident triggered a public uproar after it was revealed Hernandez had no driver's license, a long driving offense record, and was in the country illegally, but was never deported.

A toxicology report released last week showed the driver of the pickup truck had meth in her system, prompting Hernandez's attorney to suggest that vehicular homicide charges against his client should be dropped.
