A jury finds a Vermont man guilty of murder charges in the deaths of five teenagers caused when he drove the wrong way on an interstate highway.
A Vermont jury on Wednesday found a wrong-way driver who claimed he was on a secret mission guilty of murder in the deaths of five teenagers killed on an interstate highway.
Chittenden County State's attorney Sarah George said she was grateful"for such a diligent and thoughtful jury" and for the bravery and courage of parents and families of the victims who attended the court proceedings. After the verdict, one by one, parents held up photos of their child and gave statements to the media.Colleen Ovelman said she is relieved to put this part of the tragedy behind her"so I can move beyond focusing on my son Eli's death and go to focus on his life and the beautiful person that he was."
They outlined how Bourgoin left his home that night, got onto Interstate 89 going south and then turned around, approaching 90 miles per hour north in the southbound lane. He collided with the car that carried the teenagers in Williston.
