| Investigation Continues Into Crash On I-94 That Kills Woman Expecting First Child |
| Posted By Freedman & Freedman |
 |
Michigan State Police are continuing to investigate a recent crash on I-94 that
killed a woman
expecting her first child.
What caused a tractor-trailer to strike the van carrying Sara Cole, whose baby briefly survived but tragically
died three (3) short days later, is part of the inquiry, state police reported. A
crash reconstruction specialist is involved in the investigation. Once the investigation of the
car accident is completed, the prosecutor's office will review the work of the officers and make a determination about any possible criminal charges.
It was reported by state police that Cole, 35, and her husband, Chad, were traveling west near Dearing Road in Sandstone Township when a semitrailer truck struck the back of the van. They were in the back seat of the van, driven by Sara Cole's father, Clarence Fisher, 65.
Her father had apparently pulled the van to the side of the road in order to avoid vehicles losing control in front of them and with snow falling, visibility was limited and vehicles had already reportedly crashed ahead of them.
Losing a loved one in a fatal accident can leave a family feeling not only helpless and devastated, but frustrated and angry. If an investigation reveals that the incident could have been avoided altogether this knowledge makes it that much more difficult to deal with. Fortunately, Michigan law offers legal recourse to family members of those who have lost their lives due to the negligence, recklessness or wrongdoing of others.

| Cousin Of Professional Basketball Player, Willie Green, Dies In Drunk Driving Accident |
| Posted By Freedman & Freedman |
 |
The driver in a crash Monday that killed both him and his cousin, the sister of pro basketball player, Willie Green, apparently had a blood-alcohol level that was three times the legal limit, police said Tuesday. Gary Benjamin Green, 27, and his cousin, Tamara Lynette Green, 30, were killed while returning to their Detroit home about 12:40 a.m. after watching Willie Green and the New Orleans Hornets play the Detroit Pistons at The Palace of Auburn Hills. Willie Green, a former player at the University of Detroit Mercy, is Tamara Green's brother and Ben Green's cousin.
According to police, witnesses and an investigation showed Ben Green was driving fast in a GMC Envoy south on I-75 when he apparently lost control of the vehicle south of Adams Road and went off the shoulder. The SUV rolled over into a tree.
Ben Green, who was not wearing a seat belt, was found to have a blood-alcohol level of 0.24 - three times the .08 level at which a driver is considered intoxicated under Michigan law.
It is being reported that, in addition to this drunk driving accident, Ben Green had a lengthy driving record, according to state records, with at least two drinking and driving violations. According to police, his driver's license was suspended at the time of the crash.

An 18-year-old woman lost her life Friday. She didn’t have to. Brittany Marie Nowicki was a passenger in a Jeep that was being driven by an 18-year-old man. The snow was falling creating a need for caution by the early morning drivers. As the driver of the Jeep was traveling eastbound on Plum Brook Drive just east of Schoenherr around 5:30 a.m., he came upon a slower vehicle. The driver of the Jeep tried to pass the slower vehicle in snowy conditions and lost control and hit a westbound vehicle. The crash caused the Jeep to roll over and Brittany was ejected. She was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the Jeep is in critical condition at Henry Ford Macomb Hospital. The driver of the vehicle hit by the Jeep was injured but the extent of his injuries remains unknown.

| Jury Picked In Wrongful Death Case |
| Posted By Freedman & Freedman |
 |
A federal jury in Detroit has been picked in the wrongful death lawsuit arising out of a 2005 incident that destroyed the Weinstein family. Judith Weinstein was driving to a medical appointment with her two sons, Alex, 12, and Sam, 9. Alex was in the front seat and Sam was seated in the back. As Mrs. Weinstein entered a left-turn lane on 12 Mile Road, east of Orchard Lake Road, Thomas Wellinger crashed his SUV into the rear of the Weinstein vehicle at 70 mph, pushing it into oncoming traffic. Judith Weinstein and Alex Weinstein were pronounced dead at the scene of the crash. Sam was ejected from the vehicle and died a short time later.
Gary Weinstein has filed suit against Livonia-based UGS Inc., the employer of Wellinger at the time. The lawsuit alleges that UGS Inc. was negligent in allowing Wellinger to leave the office visibly intoxicated. Wellinger allegedly left his place of employment 45 minutes prior to the crash to see a psychiatrist about his alcoholism. At the time he crashed into the Weinsteins, Wellinger had a blood-alcohol level of 0.43.

Juliana Karmann, a freshman pre-med student at Denison University in Ohio, was driving home last Friday evening for the Thanksgiving holiday along with three other students. She never made it home. Juliana was traveling west on the Ohio 15 when her 2004 Chevrolet SUV hit the rear end of a 2001 Freightliner tractor-trailer. It was not her fault. It is being reported that the driver of the Freightliner, a Detroit man, stopped at a stop sign on southbound Township Highway 95 and then tried to cross the westbound lane, without the right of way, and go east on Ohio 15. Police say Karmann had the right of way. The Freightliner driver failed to yield. When Karmann struck the tractor-trailer, she spun out and slid across the eastbound lanes of Ohio 15 where she struck a 2009 Chrysler carrying two passengers. Juliana was dead at the scene of the crash. One of her passengers continues to recover from his injuries
The driver of the tractor-trailer was charged with negligent homicide and failure to yield. He was taken to Wyandot County Jail in Ohio.

| Automobile Accident Seriously Injures Two Drivers |
| Posted By Freedman & Freedman |

Two drivers were seriouslyinjured yesterday morning when their vehicles collided head-on on North Avenue between 31 Mile and 32 Mile roads in Ray Township, said Trooper William Rowell of Michigan State Police's Richmond Post.
Jean McKay, 67, of Harrison Township and Lucia Neda, 28, of Armada were being treated at Mt. Clemens Regional Medical Center after the automobile accident about 7:30 a.m., Rowell said.
He said McKay's grandchildren, a 2-year-old girl and a 5-year-old boy, both of Lapeer, did not appear hurt in the car
accident but were taken to the hospital for observation. The children were buckled up in car or booster seats in the backseat of McKay's sport-utility vehicle.
It was reported that both drivers, who were wearing seat belts, had to be extricated from their vehicles by firefighters.
Rowell said that the preliminary investigation and a witness account indicate that McKay's northbound SUV crossed the center line and hit Neda's southbound car head-on despite Neda's attempt to get off the shoulder of the road. The investigation into why the SUV crossed the center line is continuing.
