Wilcox Gets 6 Years In Avon Mountain Crash
|The Hartford Courant
HARTFORD - David R. Wilcox, the former owner of American Crushing and Recycling, was sentenced to 6 years in prison today for his role in the fiery Avon Mountain crash that claimed four lives nearly four years ago.

Six years in prison was the maximum that Wilcox, 73, faced under the terms of a plea bargain he reached with prosecutors in March. As part of that agreement, Wilcox pleaded guilty to four counts of second-degree manslaughter and five counts of first-degree assault. He also pleaded no contest to insurance fraud for trying to reinstate liability insurance on his truck in the moments after the crash.

If Wilcox completes his sentence -- he's had two heart attacks and suffers from diabetes and high blood pressure, his lawyer said -- he'll be on probation for three years after he gets out. Judge David P. Gold acknowledged while sentencing Wilcox that it may prove to be a life sentence.

Courant Editor Foils West Hartford Burglary
|The Hartford Courant
WEST HARTFORD - A 23-year-old woman and two 14-year-olds were arrested Monday night after a Foxcroft Road resident arrived home about 10 p.m. and found them in his house.

The homeowner, Courant Business Editor Dan Haar, said he thought it was suspicious when he saw a bicycle that did not belong to him on his front stoop. "I [saw] two screen doors swung open, like people had been around," Haar said today.

Haar then went to his back porch. "I start to open the door and I hear people in the house," he said.
