A murder charge against a New York State Police trooper accused of deliberately ramming an SUV during a pursuit, causing the vehicle to flip and leading to the death of an 11-year-old Brooklyn girl, has been dropped — and the victim’s family is outraged

Surrency is fighting for justice for her daughter, two years after the child was killed on I-87 just before Christmas in 2020. State Trooper Christopher Baldner was previously indicted on murder, manslaughter and multiple reckless endangerment charges in the crash that led to Monica Goods' death.

State police said the father then drove off, resulting in a chase. Baldner allegedly struck the Goods’ SUV from behind twice before it hit a guardrail and flipped. The SUV flipped over several times and came to rest upside down, prosecutors said. The trooper is accused of deliberately running a driver off the road, killing the driver's 11-year-old daughter — who was in the car — in the process. NBC New York's Jessica Cunnington reports.
