OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

Verna White, 44, was driving down the street in the residential area of First Avenue and 10th Street in Moultrie, had just returned from singing in her church and was just a few feet away from her home where she lived with her 2 sons when a car flew down the street at 95 mph, hit a house, telephone pole and then Verna White’s car with police after it. She was killed by the police chase crash by Colquitt County Sheriff’s Office that had ended with a car slamming into her at 95 mph with police racing behind it at around 10 p.m. The Georgia State Patrol Specialized Collision Reconstruction Team was then called to the scene after it was found that the accident was actually prosecutable. Despite this consideration of wrongdoing by officers responsible for this chase, no officers were charged.
