Woman Faces Trial In Facebook-feud Fatal Crash

 A 23-year-old Pontiac woman accused of starting a fatal high-speed chase in a Facebook feud will stand trial.

Torrie Emery, who was battling another woman over the the affections of a prison inmate, is charged with second degree murder, assault and child abuse. 

Authorities say Emery saw rival Danielle Booth in the passenger seat of a car and gave chase. 

Emery's 3-year-old daughter was riding with her when she rammed the second car, pushing in through an intersection and into a dump truck. 

The driver of the second car, Alesha Abernathy, died.  Booth was critically hurt.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
