An Elizabethtown man has been sentenced in a fatal crash that killed a Hodgenville couple.
Sean M. Tolliver, 41, was indicted by a Hardin County Grand Jury in April 2023 on two counts of murder, first-degree assault and operating a motor vehicle under the influence of intoxicants. He was found guilty last week of two counts of second-degree manslaughter and second-degree wanton endangerment, according to a report by The News-Enterprise.
The two adults in the vehicle Tolliver struck, 44-year-old Jonathan Peddicord and his wife, 42-year-old Tania Peddicord, were killed in the crash. Their eight-year-old daughter was airlifted to Norton Children’s Hospital. She survived the wreck.
Tolliver was sentenced to 20 years in prison, which was the jury’s recommendation, The News-Enterprise reports. He will be eligible for parole after serving 20 percent of his sentence.
