HICKSVILLE, NY — Frank Labidi, the man who was arrested on charges related to killing two Levittown teenagers in a Hicksville crash, was accused of violating the conditions of his release, prosecutors say.

The Farmingville man was accused of driving with a suspended license on Feb. 12, 2026, three weeks after the initial crash on Jan. 23 and one week after posting bail, according to the Nassau County District Attorney's office. The crash took the lives of 19-year-olds Lindsey Rose Parke and Alexa Duryea, the NCDA's office said.

Prosecutors say Labidi was accused of renting a U-Haul trailer multiple times and driving to Massachusetts to pick up a car to sell in New York as part of his car sale business, all while his license was suspended.

This week, the judge said Labidi violated court orders and held him without bail, News12 reported. Labidi is being represented by Peter Menoudakos, who was not immediately available for comment when Patch reached out.

Labidi, 24, pleaded not guilty before Judge Robert Bogle in a packed courtroom at the Nassau County Courthouse in Mineola on March 19, 2026, to manslaughter and assault charges in connection with the fatal Old Country Road crash.

He was arraigned on grand jury indictment charges of two counts of second-degree manslaughter (a C felony) and two counts of second-degree assault (a D violent felony), the DA's office said.

Lindsey Rose Parke's family has previously spoken to Patch and spoke with such admiration, pride, and love about Lindsey and her passions, such as helping people, baking, and spending time with friends and family. The way Lindsey cherished her family, friends, and community will transcend generations, living in each person she touched, the family said.

Labidi was driving his 2018 BMW M5 westbound on West Old Country Road on Jan. 23 at about 11:30 p.m. at a high rate of speed with Parke and Duryea as passengers in the car, the DA's office said.

Labidi lost control of the vehicle, crossing over into oncoming traffic in the eastbound lanes, then crashed into a tree and a commercial building, the DA's office said. The passenger side of the car struck the tree at impact, killing Lindsey and Alexa instantly, and propelled the car's muffler through the window of an orthopedic practice, the DA said.

According to the car's crash data recorder, Labidi was accused of driving 82 miles per hour — in a 40 miles per hour speed limit zone — with full acceleration and no braking three seconds before the crash, the DA's office said.

The data recorder also showed the car's stability control system was manually disabled, which overrides safety features that were built into the car to protect passengers, the DA said.
