WOBURN, Mass. (AP) — A man charged with crashing into a Massachusetts pizza parlor, killing two people and injuring seven, has rejected a plea deal that would have sent him to prison for two years.
Bradford Casler's attorney, Thomas Giblin III, says he will opt for trial instead.
Casler crashed into the Sweet Tomatoes restaurant in Newton in March 2016.
Giblin says Casler's multiple sclerosis was to blame. Prosecutors say he was aware of the possible effects of his disease and chose to ignore them, endangering other drivers.
