Nora Johnson, 27, of Woodruff, was sentenced to 5 years in prison for vehicular homicide on Tuesday. Johnson was part of a 2010 five vehicle collision which killed then 73 year old Beverly Drews of Fremont and injured five others. Johnson was under the influence of prescription and illegal drugs at the time of the collision. She originally pleaded not guilty , and her sentence could have been up to 25 years for eight criminal counts including homicide by negligent use of a vehicle, but Judge Mark Mangerson sentenced her to only 5 years because he felt the maximum sentence was unjustified. Upon completion of the 5 years, Johnson will be supervised for 6 years following her release.
Patricia L. Wendt of Merill, Pamela L. Cupples of Merrill, Marjorie A. Bellman of St. Germain, Nello D. Alessandri of Lisle, IL, and Mary C. Allesandri of Lisle, IL were among the five injured in the collision.
