North Carolina Deputy Charged With Vehicular Homicide
According to the accident report, Deputy Bradley Tabor was on duty and driving his police car at a high rate of speed when it collided with the van driven by Mildred Worley. The accident took place on I-70, a heavily traveled highway in North Carolina. Worley was taken to a nearby hospital and later succumbed to her injuries. At the time of the accident, Tabor was clocked driving at more than 100 miles per hour. He was not in pursuit of a fleeing driver and he was not in route to the scene of an accident.Although Worley's death was accidental, Tabor has been arrested on charges of reckless driving and misdemeanor death by vehicle. Because the officer lied about the events leading up to the accident, he has dismissed from the Craven County Police Department. Tabor first said that Worley had stopped her car in traffic and had the lights on her vehicle off. Investigators were able to reconstruct the accident and found that Worley was actually traveling at approximately 50 miles per hours at the time of the collision.
In many states, police officers that are on duty are legally permitted to drive in excess of the speed limit, even if they are not responding to a call. However, they are not allowed to act in a manner that could put innocent lives at risk. Because Tabor was not in route to the scene of a crime, and also because he lied about the events that caused the accident, he failed to live up to his sworn duties as a police officer.
