Speed, Aggression, and a Mother’s Loss | Liverpool News
Description
A grandmother’s tragic death at a stoplight turned into a chilling tale of recklessness and disregard — as a speeding driver, Neil Jones, slammed into Linda Donnelly while she crossed the street, going 39-51 mph on a 30 mph road. Just over a year later, Jones nearly struck another family at Cheshire Oaks, then violently swung a hammer at a man — revealing a dangerous pattern. The victim’s family described her as selfless and loving, shattered by Jones’s lack of remorse and history of offenses, including prior assaults and speeding. Jones pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including causing death by careless driving, and received a 51-month prison sentence, a driving ban, and restraining orders — but for the family, the real punishment is the void left behind.
