West Palm Beach police officers are part of an investigation into a crash this week that killed a Boynton Beach woman and her pregnant daughter.
The collision killed Marcia Pochette, 57, and Jenice Woods, 27.
“My wife, my daughter, my family, we don’t deserve that,” said Junel Pochette, who was Pochette’s husband and Woods’ father.
The women died in a crash that occurred at the intersection of Meadows Boulevard and North Congress Avenue near the entrance of their neighborhood. The women were returning home after they went to pick up dinner.
Flowers now lay in the spot where they died.
“In a conversation on Tuesday, she told me, ‘Daddy, I’m pregnant,'” Junel Pochette said.

He said the family got together when Jenice announced she was two months pregnant with her first child.
Her father said his daughter had gotten her degree in social work and had just accepted a job with Palm Beach County schools and was excited to start her second year as a teacher.
