From the Boston Herald:
The driving privileges of a man acquitted of barreling through a line of bikers in a multiple-fatal crash in New Hampshire in 2019 will be suspended for the full seven years allowed by law, a judge ruled.
Volodymyr Zhukovskyy, 28, was found not gulty in 2022 of all charges alleging that his reckless behavior on June 21, 2019, in Randolph, N.H., led to the deaths of seven members of the Jarheads Motorcycle Club, which is made up of Marine Corps veterans and their spouses.
The effective date of his seven-year driving suspension is June 24, 2019. While his license has been suspended since that time, the ruling issued today by Administrative Law Judge Ryan N. McFarland of the New Hampshire Bureau of Hearings will keep Zhukovskyy off the road for nearly two more years.
McFarland’s order details the known facts and circumstances surrounding the crash and then both the mitigating and aggravating factors of those facts.
McFarland notes aggravating factors: That there were “warning signs for (Zhukovskyy) to recognize that his driving behavior was not reasonable or safe”; that Zhukovskyy “consumed a large amount of drugs that morning” and used heroin and cocaine two to three times daily at the time; that Zhukovskyy should know to exercise more care than he did when opertaing a 62-foot long vehicle; and that the crash was “not an isolated incident” as Zhukovskyy has admitted to previously flipping a trick in Texas and was using drugs at that time, too.
