The Shock of Injustice: A Life Lost, A Misdemeanor Charge
The heartbreak over Evan Newman’s death is tragically compounded by the controversial circumstances surrounding the crash. Authorities state that Evan was traveling lawfully through a green light when he was struck by an off-duty Detroit police officer who allegedly drove through a red light.

This legal finding, which deemed the driver’s actions simple carelessness and not recklessness, is an immense blow to Evan’s loved ones, who see the minimal charge as a heartbreaking disregard for the immense value of Evan’s life.
