A 55-year-old man with a staggering 90 prior convictions, including multiple driving offenses, faces a potentially life-altering prison sentence after admitting to killing a 74-year-old man in a catastrophic, high-speed Maserati crash. Stolen from a showroom, the car was driven recklessly through a residential neighborhood at 85 mph in a 30 mph zone, ignoring red lights, driving the wrong way, and overtaking head-on. The crash, just 1,000 meters from the dealership, sent the vehicle crashing into a garden where John Bell was working — fatally pinned against a wall. The defendant’s only words to police? “Sorry.” With sentencing delayed for a social work report due to the “appalling” nature of the driving, the judge has made clear that a lengthy sentence is inevitable — and the man is set to be sentenced on August 21st.
