The mother of the two boys brutally mown down by Rebecca Grossman visited her sons' grave and shared a moving tribute after the socialite was convicted of murder.

Grossman, 62, had been speeding in her white Mercedes SUV after sharing margaritas with her former MLB player lover, Scott Erickson when she hit and killed Mark, 11, and Jacob, 8, in September 2020. 

She was found guilty by a jury of nine men and three women at Van Nuys Court near Los Angeles on Friday afternoon and was convicted of murder, manslaughter and a hit and run. 

Grossman's $2 million bail was revoked by a judge, who ordered her to jail ahead of her April 10 sentencing, which could see her jailed for up to 34 years. Her plastic surgeon husband and two children sobbed as she was led away.  

Soon after, Nancy Iskander, the mother of the two boys, shared a picture of her sons' grave with a heartfelt tribute on X. 

Tulip plants and toys were seen on the young victims' graves along with posters that read: 'We love you. Mark & Jacob'.

The heartbroken yet victorious mother captioned the photo: 'Mark and Jacob's grave this evening. 

'Someone was held accountable for your murder sons. Sleep tight. Rest in peace.'

One user also commented on Nancy's effort to keep her sons' memory alive and wrote: 'Thinking of you and hoping this gives you just a bit of comfort. My heart is with you as well as my prayers. You did an awesome job of keeping your sons memory alive while searching for Justice.'

Another user wrote: 'I hope you can find some small solace knowing that she did not get away with it. Sending you and your family love, peace, and strength.'

After today's verdict, Nancy said she and her husband Karim 'have been waiting for this for three and a half years'.

'[The trial] wasn't easy, but it will bring me closure. They [prosecutors] worked tirelessly, three and a half years. They went above and beyond. 

'They only cared about the truth. They wanted to tell the truth. They worked against some of the most evil defense attorneys. 

'We're trusting the justice system. We have a justice system you can trust, from our experience. It's not a justice system where people get away with things based on the color of their skin or their wealth or anything. 

'If you commit a crime, you will be held accountable, so we're very thankful, and it's now time to do good in the name of Mark and Jacob.'

The boys' father, Karim also said that the family was waiting on apology after the verdict was finalized. 

'We have been waiting for Mrs. Grossman to apologize, to take responsibility and she just chose to fight to the end and it was heartbreaking. 

'It allows me to just move on and heal and not allow any hatred or any loss of peace to affect how I feel.

'I hope everyone heals, everyone learns from this experience, including everyone involved from all sides and hopefully this saves lives, saves other kids in the future,' he said.

Grossman had a margarita with friends on the fateful day, then another at the now-closed Westlake Village restaurant Julio's with Erickson – whom she was dating while she was estranged from her husband.

The two left Julio's around 7pm – she in her white Mercedes SUV and he ahead in his black Mercedes SUV – to go to her nearby home to watch a presidential debate.

Witnesses reported seeing the two cars 'flying by' in the 45mph speed limit on Triunfo Canyon Road. One of those witnesses saw a woman at the wheel of the white Mercedes and said, 'It seem to be jovial, like there was some sort of race going on.'

The black box of Grossman's car – which was just behind Erickson's – recorded her speed at 81mph when she tapped the brakes and 'plowed into the boys on the crosswalk at 73mph,' according to Jamie Castro, the Deputy District Attorney's co-prosecutor.

'That was the last moment of the boys' lives.

'If she had been doing the speed limit the crash could have been avoided,' she added.

'After the collision, she did not stop. She continued driving, about a third of a mile down the road, with Mercedes' emergency accident system automatically kicking in to turn off the fuel pump and bring the vehicle to a stop.'

Castro said that while other people coming by stopped at the accident scene to try to help the fatally injured boys, Grossman 'did not come back to the horror she had caused. She didn't call 911. She did not get out of her car and go back to the scene of the crash'.

Nancy took the witness stand to give her own wrenching and tearful account of seeing the two vehicles barreling toward her, her youngest son Zachary, 5, Mark and Jacob on the crosswalk. She grabbed Zachary, the closest and jumped for her life into the bike lane.

'I would have been killed by that black SUV but I acted fast and was able to save myself and Zach', said Nancy who still has nightmares about the black bumper of Erickson's car bearing down on her.

'I saw the white car pass exactly where Mark and Jacob were.'

Grossman – who dressed conservatively in cardigans or sweaters and pants or plain dresses throughout trial – had been calm and unemotional except for one tearful outburst aimed at prosecutors when they kept objecting to her lead attorney Buzbee's lines of questioning and another when she sobbed into a handkerchief as graphic photos of the Iskander boys' fatal injuries were shown in court. 

But during breaks or the end of court days, she would often share a kiss with her husband, prominent plastic surgeon Peter Grossman and a hug with her daughter Alexis, 19, both of whom were present throughout the trial.

On the other side of the courtroom during trial, the Iskanders were there most days and Nancy was frequently unable to control her tears and had to be comforted by a group of friends and family.

Erickson too had been charged with misdemeanor reckless driving and his case was resolved in February 2022 with a judge ordering him to make a public service announcement for high school students about the importance of safe driving. 

While Grossman remained free throughout the trial on $2 million bond, she was taken into custody after the verdict was announced and is now awaiting sentencing.
