US man Isac Calderon sentenced over Shucknall crash

Dashcam footage played at court showed Calderon losing control of his Honda Accord after making a high-speed overtaking move, crashing head on into the Mercedes being driven by Ms Donowho.

Judge Jackson told him: “Seven days before this accident you had bought a car and had not taken the trouble to make sure that it carried insurance.”

West Merica Police Ch Supt Gareth Morris said while he was pleased with the sentence, he acknowledged the “frustrations at the time this has taken”.

The force faced criticism for its handling of the Calderon case, after the suspect fled the country.

“As has already been stated, Mr Calderon was not arrested at the scene following the incident as he required hospital treatment,” Ch Supt Morris said.

“The police do not have a general power to seize a person’s passport and the criteria to do so was not met at the time.”
