The speeding demon driver, 18, who killed a mother and her three kids during a 112 mph crash in Seattle has posted $100,000 bail with the help of his family.  

The King County Prosecutor’s Office charged Washington teenager Chase Jones, 18, with four counts of vehicular homicide, two counts of vehicular assault and one count of reckless driving following Tuesday's crash.

Kent resident Jones was allegedly traveling at 112 mph when he collided with a van near the intersection of South 192nd Street and 140th Avenue South in Renton, resulting in a three-car pileup.

The victims were identified as sisters Eloise and Matilda Wilcoxson, 12 and 13; Buster Brown, 12; and Andrea Hudson, 38.

Bail for the accused speed demon was initially set for $1 million, but after it was decided by the judge that Jones was not a 'flight risk,' the bail was dropped to just $100,000.

Judge Johanna Bender cited 'special circumstances' as her reasoning for lowering the bail, including the 'severity' of his injuries and his inability to operate a vehicle. 

The teenager posted bail with the help of his family the next day on April 2.

Since Jones' family posted bail, he is allowed to go home as soon as he's released from hospital, where he will be placed under electronic home detention and have to wear a tag for GPS monitoring. 

He was forced to surrender his driver's license and is not allowed to drive or operate any vehicles, bikes or skateboards.

All four of Jones' victims died from 'multiple blunt force injuries,' according to the King County Medical Examiner's Office. 

'When you’re driving, think of the people around you,' the girls' father, Chace Wilcoxson, said in a desperate plea published in the Seattle Times.

'When you’re tempted to speed, think of Andrea. When you’re tempted to grab your phone while you’re driving, think of my beautiful girls, Matilda and Eloise. When you’re trying to make the light, remember Buster Brown.'

Hudson's children, Nolan and Charlotte, who were also in the van, suffered brain bleeds, internal injuries and broken bones and taken to Harborview Medical Center.

As of Friday, Nolan was in critical condition while Charlotte was in serious condition in the ICU, according to spokeswoman Susan Gregg.

Also killed in the accident was 12-year-old Buster Brown, who was described as 'an exemplary son, brother, and friend'

An adult in a third car, which was hit on in the collision, sustained minor injuries.

Jones was treated for an internal injury that required surgery as well as a fractured leg and ribs. He has since been released. 

The teen's 2015 Audi A4 had been purchased just a month before the deadly collision. According to court documents, it was the third vehicle Jones had totaled in a speeding crash in the last 11 months.

Hudson, who led a homeschooling group, was driving the three children home Tuesday afternoon when she passed through the intersection and was T-boned by Jones, according to court documents.

The teen had been driving erratically, speeding and 'weaving around other traffic.'  Data from his car showed he was traveling 112 mph when he ran a red light at the intersection 'at full throttle without braking.'

Prosecutors described the collision as 'incredibly violent,' noting that all four victims died instantly. 

Court documents show that Daniels has been involved in three major crashes over the last year, and body cam footage from the scene of one shows him admitting that he was speeding to a police officer.
