The driver told investigators that he deliberately targeted the van for a head-on collision, though he didn’t know the men inside.
A Chicago man was sentenced to 31 years in prison for intentionally crashing his SUV into a stranger’s van at high speed in McHenry County, killing one man and severely injuring another, prosecutors said.
Bishop was driving a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee westbound on Vanderkarr when he accelerated to 87 mph, crossed the center line and intentionally crashed into a 2003 Chevrolet cargo van carrying Miller and Fiali, despite Fiali’s attempts to avoid the crash, prosecutors said. Emergency personnel had to extract the victims from the rolled over van.Miller died at the scene. Fiali was critically injured and is still in inpatient rehabilitation due to his debilitating injuries.
Testing showed Bishop had more than twice the legal limit of THC, the component of marijuana that gets users high, in his blood, prosecutors said, adding that a cannabis vaping device that contained THC was found in the open compartment area of Bishop’s SUV along with other marijuana paraphernalia.
