Noah Galle, the son of a prominent attorney, could have faced a 55-year sentence for causing the deadly car crash. At a court hearing on Monday, Galle got his defense attorney, Liz Parker, to read out his statement of remorse instead of doing it himself, the paper reported. Perkins said that Galle “wished every day” that he died in the crash instead of the victims.
It is not stated on his arrest report whether he was recording on the night of the crash near Delray Beach, according to the Post. The plea deal was negotiated by Galle’s legal team and Chief Assistant State Attorney Al Johnson. It comes as Alexcia Cox was sworn in as the county’s new state attorney on Tuesday, replacing Dave Aronberg who had been in the position since 2013.
The victims of the crash, Mirlaine Julceus, 45, Remize Michel, 53, Marie Louis, 60, Michel Saint, 77, Filaine Dieu, 46 and Vanice Percina, 29, were carpooling together from the farm where they worked on January 27, 2022, when their Nissan Rouge was struck at the back by Galle, who was 17 at the time.
Family members of the victims did not attend Monday’s hearing. “12 years is a joke!” one person said. “Shameful sentencing for 6 innocent lives and numerous affected family members who will relive this trauma the rest of their lives,” another wrote.
Johnson issued a statement following sentencing where he said that the families of the victims did not object and the prosecution felt it was an “appropriate resolution.”. “The victims’ families have written to us that they did not object to this plea,” Johnson said. “Some of them didn’t even want him to go to jail at all.
