Paige Seaton, 22, entered a written not guilty plea Tuesday. Seaton is accused of drinking and driving and causing a deadly crash in Sarpy County in October. 

Seaton, who was charged with a DUI and motor vehicle homicide, had her bond set at $20,000 by a Sarpy County judge, who said she was only allowed to leave her phone for medical appointments. 

According to investigators, Seaton caused the crash that killed 15-year-old Alexandra Linscott and critically injured her mother, Elisa. 

Seaton's attorney said last week that the 22-year-old was sexually assaulted hours before the crash.Seaton is due back in court in February.
