How they died

Vehic/Purs

A local officer was going 91 MPH at 5:21 a.m. when his other slammed into McKay as she stepped down from the curb into the street at a bus stop. That stretch of road was signed at 40 MPH. The officer was subsequently fired for a pattern of excessive speeding both on and off duty--90 MPH over 90 separate times, and up to 118 MPH on the interstate on occasion. Tried for vehicular manslaughter, he was found guilty of the misdemeanor of reckless driving.
