NEWARK, Ohio (WCMH) -- The trial for a truck driver who was charged in connection with a 2023 crash on Interstate 70 that left six people dead enters its second day on Tuesday.
Jacob McDonald, 61, of Zanesville, is facing 26 charges, including six third-degree felony counts of aggravated vehicular homicide, nine fourth-degree felony counts of vehicular assault and 11 first-degree misdemeanor counts of assault.
McDonald has opted for a bench trial in Licking County Common Pleas Court, meaning Judge David Branstool will decide his fate rather than a jury. Chief Felony Prosecutor Clifford Murphy will represent the state. Attorney Chris Brigdon will defend McDonald. Watch coverage from the first day of trial in the player above.
