Blademir Viveros, a former Missouri City police officer, has been charged with two counts of manslaughter and one count of aggravated assault in connection with a fatal crash that killed Angela Stewart and her 16-year-old son, Mason Stewart, on June 20. The crash occurred when Viveros, who was responding to a robbery call without his emergency lights or sirens activated, collided with the Stewart's vehicle as they exited a parking lot.
