Over the Memorial Day Weekend, a 29 year old Georgia woman Gordan County, Tanya Simms, was killed in a car accident east of Calhoun when a pickup truck pulled out in front of she and her husband, Justin Simms, this, according to the Gordon County Coroner.

Justin Sims tried to save his wife at the car accident site, but she later died. The car crash occurred following a birthday celebration in honor of Tanya Simms. Justin Simms sustained minor injuries. As with all highway car wrecks in Georgia, the accident was investigated by the Georgia State Patrol.

The driver of the pickup truck will likely face criminal charges and a wrongful death lawsuit is inevitable.

Three people were injured when their plane crashed recently during takeoff from the Lewisburg airport in Tennessee. At the time of the plane crash, the plane was about 150 feet in the air. Luckily the passengers were not seriously injured. The same cannot be said of passengers of planes that recently crashed in New Jersey and the Pacific Northwest. The passengers in those plane crashes died and it is too soon to know whether any wrongful death lawsuits have or will be filed.

In the Tennessee plane crash, it is believed that the plane crashed because of engine trouble. After a thorough investigation, it should become clearer what the exact cause of the plane crash was and whether that may pave the way for an injury lawsuit.

Hulk Hogan's son, Nick Bollea, has been sentenced to 8 months in jail after pleading nolo contendere for the alcohol related car accident that resulted in severe brain injuries to his passenger and friend, John Graziano, a former Marine and Iraq War Veteran. The car crash occurred last August when Nick Hogan was racing another car in his father's Toyota Supra, lost control and hit a tree. This resulted in serious injuries to John Graziano, including a broken skull. He will now lead lifetime medical care.

In addition to the jail sentence, Nick Hogan was placed on probation for five years, was forced to surrender his driving license for three years and is required to take a DUI class. Nick Hogan has a history of reckless driving, which no doubt factored into the Judge's sentencing.

John Graziano's family has a pending personal injury lawsuit against the Hogan Family. The no contest plea entered by Nick Hogan is tantamount to a guilty plea and even though Hogan did not technically enter a guilty plea, his no contest plea and the resulting jail sentence, nonetheless, will aid the Graziano in their pursuit of damages for John Graziano's injuries.

If you or a loved one has been injured or killed by a reckless or drunk driver, I would invite you to visit my website, www.samlevine.com or contact my office, Sam Levine, Attorney at Law.
