The charges stem from a May 2019 crash that killed 19-year-old Jonathan Young and critically injured his 4-year-old son and the driver of a separate vehicle.
The accident happened on Business 77 south of FM 3168 south of Raymondville when Salinas veered right into the shoulder and struck the vehicle driven by Young – causing him to skid across the northbound lane into the southbound lane and be struck by the third vehicle.
Bond for Salinas was set at $275,000.
