The family of Mohammad Anwar who drove for Uber Eats in Washington D.C. to help his family have a better life confronted one of the teenagers who caused his death. The encounter happened in court, while sentencing was going on, as The Blaze reports.

How did it all happen?

The two teenagers accused of killing the Uber Eats driver were charged with felony murder.

The two girls, aged 13 and 15, were trying to carjack Anwar when, while he was trying to defend himself, the girls sped off with him on the outside of the car. After that the car crashed on the same road. It flipped on its side and Anwar was thrown toward a building. The teenagers were taken into custody by National Guard soldiers.

The shocking thing was that while she was being arrested one of the girls reportedly said she was worried about her cellphone, which she thought was left inside the car, despite the tragic happening.

According to The Blaze, prosecutors declined to charge the 15-year-old as an adult and were prohibited by Washington, D.C., law from charging the 13-year-old as an adult. The two girls were offered a plea bargain, so they could plead guilty to murder while having other charges dropped. They will both serve minimal detention sentences.

“I cannot get past the fact of him enduring the pain of the injuries you caused him. No amount of years you spend in any facility can ever make you go through even one percent of that pain. You did not kill one person that day, you killed his whole family. That pain he had to go through, will be our heartache till our last days, and we will never ever forget you were the cause of this pain,” Anwar's daughter told the defendant directly.

“Any sentence you receive today will not bring my uncle back. While you may not have seen value in his life in those moments, we do see value in yours. Your life is valuable. Your entire life is ahead of you, and you will have the opportunity to live a good life, if you so choose. We hope you will learn from this and choose to go on to do great things and be a productive member of society,” Anwar's niece said in a more positive address to the defendant.

“No matter how much stuff I've been through, I never wanted to hurt someone. None of this was intentional, in other words, I never thought this would go through ... If I could take it back, I would,” the 15-year-old reportedly said for WUSA-TV about the Washington D.C tragic incident.
