Another key witness, who was present at the scene of the accident, shared her harrowing experience, noting how she saw bodies fly above the vehicle upon impact. She described her instinct to comfort the Jones family, particularly Trey’s wife, Amy, during the chaos that followed the crash.
Prosecutors presented evidence indicating that Hurley was under the influence of fentanyl at the time of the incident, showing blood samples that revealed a deadly level of the substance in his system.
Testimonies from law enforcement officers painted a picture of Hurley appearing intoxicated, with glossy eyes and delayed responses, and showed a lack of emotion as he expressed regret over the incident, which some officers described as detached.
Hurley’s defense, however, argued that the crash was an accident and not a deliberate act. As the trial moves into its fourth day, it is anticipated that Ava and Amy Jones, the injured victims, will provide their testimonies, further detailing the tragic events of that day and their aftermath.
