Jons, 20, was a juror in a case of resisting arrest. On Aug. 11, a day off from the trial and before the prosecution finished its case, she wrote on Facebook that it was “gonna be fun to tell the defendant they’re guilty.”

The post was discovered by defense lawyer Saleema Sheikh’s son.

Circuit Judge Diane Druzinski confronted Jons the next day and replaced her with an alternate.

“You don’t know how disturbing this is,” Druzinski said, according to The Macomb Daily.

A message seeking comment was left for Jons on Monday.

“I would like to see her get some jail time, nothing major, a few hours or overnight,” Sheikh said. “This is the jury system. People need to know how important it is.”

Sheikh’s son, Jaxon Goodman, discovered the comment while checking jurors’ names on the Internet. He works in his mother’s law office.

“I’m really proud of him,” Sheikh said.

Without Jons, the jury convicted Sheikh’s client of a felony but couldn’t agree on a separate misdemeanor charge.

Investigators with the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office say alcohol and speed contributed to the crash just after 1 a.m. Sunday on a short stretch of Route 11 where nine people have died in the past decade.

The driver, Nicholas Sparrow, was partially ejected from the car but survived. He was in fair condition Monday at Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston.

Thomas St. Saviour, 29, of Hiram was wearing a seat belt and stayed in the 1993 Infiniti. Michael Daye, 14, of Baldwin was thrown from the car. Both were pronounced dead at the scene.

Despite the age difference, Daye and his 17-year-old brother were longtime friends of Sparrow’s, authorities said.

Sparrow had just moved into a mobile home on Rosewood Road and had seven friends visit, several of whom were younger than 21, said Chief Deputy Kevin Joyce at a news conference Monday.

Sparrow, St. Saviour and Daye decided to drive to the Big Apple in Naples to buy more alcohol, but St. Saviour was turned down because it was after 1 a.m., Joyce said.

The three were going back up Route 11 when they passed a sheriff’s deputy at the American Legion Post parking lot in Naples. Deputy Andrew Feeney heard the Infiniti before he saw it, he said, because the car’s headlights were off…

Paris Hilton denied that a purse she was carrying that contained drugs was hers but said other items inside, including asthma medication, credit cards and $1,300 in cash, were hers, according to a police report.

Hilton was arrested Saturday evening with her boyfriend, Las Vegas nightclub operator Cy Waits, who was driving the black SUV stopped by police at 11:22 p.m. Friday after they smelled marijuana.

A police lieutenant found 0.8 grams of cocaine in a purse Hilton was carrying. She is expected to be charged with felony drug possession by Clark County prosecutors, based on the police report.

Hilton and Waits were stopped near the Wynn Hotel, where a crowd gathered as officers prepared to search the Cadillac Escalade for narcotics, according to the report. Hilton told the officer she needed to use the bathroom and was escorted into the hotel.

Liability Coverage

Liability insurance covers bodily injury and property damage a motorcyclist causes to others involved in the accident (possibly including passengers riding with the motorcyclist). Liability insurance does not cover the motorcyclist, himself.

Collision Coverage

Collision insurance covers damage to the motorcyclist’s motorcycle caused by a crash. Damages are usually limited to the book value of the motorcycle at the time of the collision.

Comprehensive Coverage

Comprehensive insurance covers damage to factory standard parts caused by events other than a collision (for example, theft, vandalism, or fire). Typically, damages are limited to the book value of the motorcycle at the time of the incident.

Uninsured Drivers’ Coverage

Uninsured drivers’ coverage protects policyholders (including motorcyclists) in the event of an accident with someone who is either uninsured or underinsured. In states where uninsured motorist coverage is mandatory, motorcyclists must meet minimum coverage amounts.

The motorcycle accident attorneys are experienced with the laws of California regarding motorcyclists’ coverage. Contact our firm for more information on obtaining the legal counsel you need to navigate these laws after a motorcycle accident.

Cuneyt Erturk, a Turkish immigrant, was driving home from a local Domino’s Pizza where he worked as a night manager on Oct. 25, 2008 when he was struck and killed by a car driven by Davis. His widow, Truvilla Erturk, filed a lawsuit claiming that staff members over served Davis when they should have known he would drive home. The Sports Grill denied the allegation in Court documents. The parties reached a settlement on July 15, an attorney for the widow announced Tuesday. “While the drunk driver has accepted responsibility for his conduct, The Sports Grill has yet to acknowledge its role in causing Mr. Erturk’s death, or to even offer an apology,” said attorney Lloyd Bell, who represented Erturk’s widow. “Hopefully, this result will encourage other bar and restaurant owners to act responsibly and to think twice before over-serving alcohol to their customers.”

Cobb County State Court Judge Toby Prodgers in May sanctioned the bar for destroying over four hours of videotape that might have proved the plaintiff’s case. Judge Prodgers also found evidence that The Sports Grill destroyed the tabs for two customers who were with Davis and the “spill sheet” that recorded complimentary drinks to patrons that night. “It is particularly disturbing that The Sports Bar would permit the destruction of the subject evidence after it became aware that a patron to whom it had been serving alcohol was involved in a fatal crash after leaving its premises,” Prodgers wrote in his decision. He sanctioned The Sports Grill by restricting its lawyers from introducing any evidence to contradict the claim that bartenders served alcohol to Davis while he was already drunk. The ruling would have severely handicapped the defense if the case had gone to trial.

Robb Cruse, a lawyer for The Sports Grill, did not return calls seeking comment Tuesday afternoon.

Davis, 28, is awaiting trial on charges of driving without headlights, driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol and first-degree vehicular homicide.

Patricia Jordan was walking toward the car rental area when she was struck and killed by Evelini Kinikini. The lawsuit is claiming wrongful death not only because of Kinikini’s “negligent driving” but also because airport officials ignored a dangerous traffic situation.

“Salt Lake City and Salt Lake City International Airport were expressly warned of this danger before Jordan’s accident and chose to ignore this warning,” the lawsuit states.

Barbara Gann, airport spokeswoman, said she had not seen the lawsuit yet and likely wouldn’t be able to comment on pending litigation.

“Today, I’m free now. So, I feel really good to reunion with my family and to be with my family, but it’s still in my mind this accident’s cost to life. And even through I’m returned to my family, I’m free, but three people that died on that day cannot return to their families,” Lee said.

On Thursday, Ramsey County, Minnesota, District Judge Joanne Smith ordered Lee’s release from prison, pending a new trial related to the sudden-acceleration crash of his Toyota Camry that killed three people.

Ramsey County Prosecutor Susan Gaertner immediately said she would drop the charges and wouldn’t retry Lee.

“Mr. Lee will be a free man,” Gaertner said in a written statement.

A jury convicted Lee of criminal vehicular homicide in 2007, and he was sentenced to eight years in prison.

Lee had always maintained his innocence, saying the 1996 Camry accelerated uncontrollably before it crashed into two vehicles, killing a man, his 10-year-old son and a 6-year-old girl.

“I also want people to know that I’m not the one who caused the accident and I try everything I could to stop my car,” Lee said on “American Morning” on Monday.

On Thursday, Lee asked the victims’ family to forgive him and believe his story. In fact, the family of the victims had long ago become convinced of Lee’s innocence and joined the effort to free him. They are suing Toyota.

“It’s a bittersweet victory,” Bridgette Trice, whose daughter died of injuries suffered in the crash, told CNN affiliate KARE-TV on Thursday. “I’m happy for the Lee family, that they’re getting their justice. We want answers, and they’re coming slowly but they’re coming surely.”
