A Duchesne County man admitted to causing 1 death in a West Valley crash on New Year's Eve. But 2 people died in the crash and he was never charged with a second death.
WEST VALLEY CITY — A five-car crash in West Valley City on New Year's Eve led to the immediate death of a pedestrian who was pushing his friend across the street in a wheelchair, and the subsequent death of a mother driving one of the cars who was taken off of life support 12 days later.
Eckes pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of negligently operating a vehicle resulting in death, a second-degree felony, plus negligently operating a vehicle resulting in serious bodily injury, a third-degree felony. In exchange, five felonies, five misdemeanors and two infractions were dismissed. KSL.com has subsequently learned that the two victims are Bernardo Molina, 33, and Amber Schneiter. Her age is redacted for some reason from a West Valley police report obtained through a public records request.
"It's just not OK. … The kid messed up really big, and he shouldn't get away with any of it like that," Billings said.
