Legal action taken 2 years later in fatal Wayne Co. accident
This week marks the second anniversary of a tragic accident in Walworth, NY where retired Monroe County jail deputy Thomas Doherty lost his life. Unfortunately, the young driver responsible received only traffic tickets after being found guilty of a stop sign violation without a license. Doherty's girlfriend, Kari Bittner, who survived the crash, expressed the lasting impact the event has had. Despite efforts to pursue criminal charges against the driver, no evidence of impairment or phone use was found. The family is now seeking justice through a civil lawsuit against the driver and the vehicle's owner. Though hope remains for accountability, progress has been slow. The Doherty family holds onto memories of Thomas as they navigate the legal process and strive for closure.
