David Marsh settled a case on behalf of a mother who lost both of her daughters in a horrific car wreck that occurred in rural Tuscaloosa County. The girls were 11- and 13-years-old at the time of their deaths. They were rear seat passengers in a car riding on a rural stretch of U.S. Hwy 82, when the car was rear-ended by another vehicle. The impact was so great that the girls’ car flipped and rolled twice. The driver who hit them was estimated to be traveling at a speed of more than 85 mph. The driver, a retired Challenger space shuttle astronaut, admitted to drinking before he got in his car but refused to consent for an alcohol/drug test. He has been charged with two counts of reckless murder and awaits trial. At the time of this wreck, the driver was on probation for a DUI to which he had pled guilty after rear-ending another victim in California.
