Charges filed in 2010 Fatal Crash in NE KS
Aaron Meade
(AP) - A 25-year-old Jefferson County man has been charged in a head-on crash that killed a Topeka man in 2010.
The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that Aaron Emerson Meade, of Meriden, is charged with involuntary manslaughter while driving under the influence after a crash in March 2010 that killed 50-year-old Neil L. Highsmith.
Shawnee County District Court records show Meade was charged Nov. 15. He was booked into the Shawnee County jail Thursday, where he was being held on a $50,000 cash or surety bond.
Lee McGowan, chief of staff for the county district attorney's office, said he couldn't comment on the case or why it took more than 3 1/2 years to file charges.
