Negotiations ongoing in Candie Springer case, hearing postponed 2 weeks
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — Negotiations are continuing in the case of a Bakersfield woman who's facing a felony charge in connection with a deadly crash that occurred after she allowed her unlicensed teen son to drive her Dodge Charger. David A. Torres, defense attorney for Candie Springer, said in court Wednesday he submitted a mitigation packet to prosecutors and they need two weeks to review it. Judge John W. Lua set the next hearing for June 25. Springer, who was not present Wednesday, was ordered to appear. A mitigation packet is intended to provide a complete picture of the defendant and can include school and work history, character letters and information on prior minimal or lack of a criminal record. Springer, 47, has no prior cases listed against her in Kern County. She's charged with felony child cruelty and a misdemeanor count of allowing an unlicensed person to operate a motor vehicle. In 2023, Springer let her then-15-year-old son take her car for what she thought would be a quick trip to the market. Jace Springer instead picked up friends, sped on city streets and led police on a chase that ended with him crashing into a tree. A passenger died. Jace Springer accepted a plea agreement in juvenile court. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
