No Plea Agreement in Deadly Rt. 3 Culpeper Crash Case
Posted on Apr 19, 2010
A man facing charges related to the death of four people in a tragic head-on collision on Route 3 earlier this year has pulled out of an unusual plea agreement. The man, Eugene T. Greene, 30, of Spotsylvania, was driving east on Rt. 3 when his Chevy Tahoe crashed head-on into a Toyota Corolla. Drowsy driving is blamed for the crash.
The driver of the Corolla, Tyler S. Harlow, 20, of Ruckersville, and three of his passengers, Joseph L. Sahnow, 20, of Ruckersville, Tianna V. Jones, 19, of Stanardsville, and James B. Cook, 21, of Marshfield, Vt, all died at the scene of the accident. One passenger, Howard J. Steiniger, 27, of Fredericksburg, survived the crash.
As a result Greene was facing four felony counts of involuntary manslaughter, wounding in the commission of a felony, destruction of property, and misdemeanor charges of reckless driving, and operating an uninsured vehicle. The plea agreement would have reduced the charges to five counts of reckless driving and operating an uninsured vehicle.
However, the unusual (as the judge put it) terms of the plea agreement led the defendant to withdraw the pleas. One of the unusual terms was that Greene would have to return to jail each year for ten years on March 22, the date of the accident, to satisfy the families of the victims.
Greene has a four-day trial set for May 4, starting at 9:30am in Circuit Court.
