DUI DEFENSE ATTORNEY NEWS: DUI DEFENDANT FOUND NOT GUILTY IN DUI HOMICIDE; AMBIEN TO BLAME
TEWKSBURY, Mass. -- A judge finds an Andover attorney Ki Yong O not guilty of motor vehicle homicide in an accident that happened last year in Tewksbury.
The 36-year-old struck and killed Anthony Raucci while on the prescription sleep medication Ambien.
The judge in the case said that since O did not know the side effects of the drug, he could not be found guilty.
The accident happened while Raucci was changing a tire in the breakdown lane on I-93.
Raucci's wife and 7-year-old son were in the car at the time and watched the whole scene unfold.
O was also found not guilty on charges of leaving the scene of an accident with property damage.
