Driver In Bronx Tour Bus Crash Pleads Not Guilty To Manslaughter Charges
By: NY1 News
The driver of a tour bus that crashed back in March killing 15 people pled not guilty today after an indictment against him was unsealed in Bronx State Supreme
Court.
Ophadell Williams faces multiple manslaughter charges.
Williams claimed he lost control of the World Wide Travel tour bus heading back to New York from a Connecticut casino trip after it was sidewswiped by a tractor-trailer.
However, surviving passengers said Williams was asleep behind the wheel when the bus slammed into a sign off Interstate 95, slicing it in half.
Investigators say Williams was driving the bus as fast as it could go, and well above the speed limit.
They also found no indication another vehicle was involved
