At Rest

Other
Two Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute students were injured in a 1:55 a.m. crash. Jessie Fortier, 19, died of her injuries, and Hillary Lindsay, 20, recovered. Fortier and Lindsay were among four passengers in a car driven by Paul F. Rickert, when it was struck broadside by a police cruiser driven by Officer William Bowles, who reportedly was on his way to assist fellow officers at a fight.
This record exists so that Jessie Kay Fortier, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
