An Attleboro, Massachusetts woman was arraigned on charges of Massachusetts vehicular homicide, driving negligently, failing to yield to a pedestrian and failing to slow for a highway maintenance worker. A skilled Massachusetts criminal defense attorney is necessary to defend against these charges.
According to the Sun Chronicle, Ngoc Hua, struck a city water department worker as he was attempting to close a water gate in the road because of a water main leak. He died a short time later.
As a condition of her release after arraignment, Hua was required to surrender her driver's license and passport. Although the District Attorney requested $10,000 cash bail, the Attleboro District Court Judge James Sullivan allowed Hua to remain free without bail based on the fact that she had no prior criminal history and that the primary purpose of bail is to ensure defendant's appearance in court.
