Husband Charged With Manslaughter After Crash Killed His Wife

Early Sunday morning in Gallatin County, Kentucky an automobile crash
claimed the life of 62-year-old Judy Reynolds. The accident occurred at
the intersection of KY 16 and Roberts Road.

Kentucky State Police reported that 55-year-old Eugene Reynolds was
driving when he lost control of his car. The car left the road and was
airborne before it crashed against a tree. Ms. Reynolds was trapped
inside the car and was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident.

Mr. Reynolds was taken to St. Luke's hospital in Florence, Kentucky
where he was treated for non-incapacitating wounds. State Troopers have
charged him with second-degree manslaughter and driving under the
influence.

When I was a prosecutor I had the responsibility of prosecuting DUI
offenders who were responsible for fatal accidents. Losing someone to
in a fatal accident is devastating but when it could have been prevented
it can be so much more painful.
