Description

A 69-year-old driver, Fiona Hodge, who killed Donna Crossman in a crash during a Take That concert trip, has been released from prison after her sentence was suspended — but she still faces heavy consequences. The court heard she suffers from epilepsy and has no memory of the crash, with her defense blaming a medical episode. Donna, a beloved RAF veteran and community coach, was described as “perfect” and “adventurous.” Hodge’s sentence is now one year suspended for two, with a reduced driving ban and a hefty legal bill — and any future offenses could send her back behind bars.
