MAURY COUNTY MAN SENTENCED FOR 2022 VEHICULAR HOMICIDE OF RESERVE DEPUTY.

Last Friday, August 23, a sentencing hearing was held following the guilty plea of Clark Daniel to Reckless Vehicular Homicide.

Around 4 p.m. on Dec. 12, 2022, at the intersection of Highway 43 and Williamsport Pike, Reserve Deputy Brad Miller was working security, in a construction zone, in a marked patrol unit, when he was rear-ended by 27 year old Daniel. Deputy Miller died as a result of his injuries.

After hearing testimony from the victim's family, the defendant's family, and a THP Accident Reconstruction expert, Circuit Judge Russ Parkes sentenced Daniel to 4 years probation, with numerous conditions, including no alcohol consumption, counseling, and loss of driver's license for 4 years. Reckless Vehicular Homicide is a Class C felony, carrying a sentence of 3 to 6 years.

Assistant District Attorney Ross Boudreaux prosecuted the case for the state. The crash was investigated by THP CIRT Trooper Paul Sanders.
