'It will not bring mum back'
The daughter of an 85-year-old woman who was killed on the way home from a meal in Nottingham says she does not want her killer to be jailed. In a victim impact statement, Rachel Pickering said she has “no ill feelings” towards Finn Broderick whose momentary lapse in concentration caused his silver Vauxhall Corsa to collide with a car her mother Margaret Wedd was a passenger in and that putting him behind bars “will not bring mum back”.
“I do not hold a grudge or bear any ill feelings towards the other driver. I don’t feel a prison sentence will make me feel any better or bring mum back.” “How did this accident happen? There was no excessive speed, there were no drink or drugs involved and it appears to have been a momentary lapse in concentration from an inexperienced driver that had led to these tragic consequences.”
“Margaret Wedd suffered severe chest injuries and Paul Wedd suffered a fractured sternum and fractured ribs. Mr Broderick was unable to exit his vehicle due to the damage, leaving him trapped.” He said: “Sadly, as a result of a horrific road traffic collision my mother, who was 85, still lived alone, was mobile and sadly died unexpectedly. She was a much-loved mother and grandmother and her death has had a devastating impact on our family.
