A Wal-mart Truck Driver Involved In A Fatal Car Crash That Left Comedian Tracy Morgan Seriously Injured Is Asking A Judge To Dismiss Criminal Charges Against Him.
Kevin Roper is facing one criminal count of death by auto and four counts of assault by auto relating to the horrific accident in New Jersey in June, 2014, when his Wal-Mart truck collided with the 30 Rock star's limousine, killing Morgan's friend James 'Jimmy MACk' MCNair.
Morgan sued Wal-Mart for negligence and settled for a reported $90 million (£56.2 million).
Roper, who has pleaded not guilty to the charges against him, now faces a trial, but he fears proceedings won't be fair due to the media coverage of the fall-out from the crash, adding Wal-Mart bosses have made admissions of guilt over the accident.
In a public hearing last month (Aug15), National Transportation Safety Board investigators claimed Roper had been awake for 28 hours and failed to slow down for construction work on the New Jersey Turnpike due to his lack of sleep.
