Truck Driver’s 110-Year Sentence for Deadly Accident Draws Outrage

A motorist was livestreaming as he sat in slow-moving traffic, when suddenly, a big rig truck barrels past him, crashing and triggering a fireball in which four people were killed. Josh McCutcheon went into journalist mode, giving a live account of the tragic accident. That was in 2019, and now the truck driver, Rogel Aguilera-Mederos, has been sentenced to 110 years in prison. A tidal wave of sympathy for the trucker resulted in 4.3 million people signing a petition demanding he get clemency.
