"Two charged after trooper struck, killed on I-95 detail; Men accused of driving drunk; officer mourned" by Maria Cramer and Brian Ballou, Globe Staff | June 19, 2010

BROCKTON — A veteran state trooper was killed while on a highway traffic detail in Mansfield early yesterday morning in a bizarre accident in which one alleged drunk driver plowed into another, trapping the trooper under a car as his body was dragged across the highway.

Sergeant Douglas Weddleton, a 52-year-old father of four, stopped the an Acura and began talking to the driver, Kenneth Weiand, a 43-year-old state probation worker.

Think he will get his own case.

At that moment, police said, a Ford truck driven by Anthony Perry, a 45-year-old carpenter from Hyde Park who had been watching the NBA Finals at a Rhode Island bar, slammed into the Acura, police said.

That's it! I CALL for the RETURN of PROHIBITION!

If it is GOOD ENOUGH for POT then it is GOOD ENOUGH for BOOZE!!!!!!

Perry later told police he was traveling at 65 miles per hour, according to court documents.

The force of the impact caused the Acura, with Weiand inside, to veer left, striking Weddleton and trapping the trooper underneath the car. He was dragged across three lanes of the highway, as the nearby construction workers desperately banged on the Acura’s windows, trying to get the car to stop, according to a State Police report.

Perry was arraigned yesterday on charges including negligent motor vehicle homicide and operating under the influence, and Weiand was charged with driving while under the influence of alcohol. Both men pleaded not guilty yesterday in Attleboro District Court.

Yesterday, mourners brought flowers and food to the trooper’s family at their Brockton home, where a trooper stood sentry outside to keep media away....

I don't blame them one bit.

Yeah, why doe$ the POLITICALLY-CORRECT, MORALLY-CREDIBLE(?) "newspapers" continue to PUSH SUCH VICE as FUN?

Perry, who was wearing a Paul Pierce Celtics jersey when he was arrested, told police he had been drinking at a Rhode Island bar before the crash. He said he drank three beers and a cocktail, prosecutors said in court yesterday.

The chemical breath test showed he had a blood alcohol level of .07, just below the state limit of .08, said his lawyer, Robert J. Galibois.

“This is a misdemeanor case,’’ said Galibois, who said Perry had no criminal record. “The only thing that elevates this to a felony is an OUI [operating under the influence]. And the OUI will not survive.’’

Well, what do you know?

The COPS got the BLOW JOB on THIS ONE!

NO MURDER CHARGE!!

Prosecutors said they based their drunk driving charge against Perry on his appearance and actions after the crash. His eyes were glassy and red, and he had trouble maintaining his balance, prosecutors said.

Perry, who was arraigned separately from Weiand, was ordered held on $10,000 cash bail. He posted bail and left the courthouse without speaking to reporters.

Weiand, who lives in Walpole, was ordered held pending a mental health evaluation. Prosecutors said that while he was being held in a cell after the crash, he struck his head and fists against the wall and told a trooper he feared for his wife and daughter’s safety.

Just DO NOT GO ALL COPYCAT on us and CUT 'EM UP, 'kay?

When I get out of here, I don’t know what I will do to them or to myself,’’ he said, according to court documents....

Then DON'T LET HIM OUT!!!!!!

Yup, it's ONE BIG PARTY here in Massachusetts -- and beyond!!

Both Perry and Weiand had long records of driving violations since the 1980s, according to records from the Registry of Motor Vehicles.

Perry had been involved in six accidents and was issued three speeding tickets.

Weiand had also been involved in six accidents and received more than a dozen citations, including 11 for speeding....

But he's a STATE OFFICIAL so NO PROBLEM!!!

Weiand’s license had been suspended for 180 days because he refused a breathalyzer test, said a Registry spokeswoman.

A STATE OFFICIAL in the PROBATION OFFICE?
