Grieving dad to meet with prosecutors
Published March 27, 2007 at midnight
Frank Bingham will meet with family members before prosecutors will discuss offering plea bargains with two men accused of plowing down Bingham's wife and his two children in a hit and run accident, Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey said this afternoon.
On Nov. 10, Becca Bingham, 39, and her two children, 4-year-old Macie and 2-year-old Garrison were killed in a hit and run accident at Arapahoe and 15th street in downtown Denver. Frank Bingham was injured in the accident.
Lawrence James Trujillo, 36, is charged with multiple counts of vehicular homicide and child abuse.
Trujillo's alleged passenger, Eric Snell, is facing six counts of accessory to a crime and one count of DUI.
Frank Bingham will have to talk to his wife's sisters who live out of state before any plea deals are discussed, Morrissey said.
Trujillo and Snell appeared in Denver District Court Tuesday for a disposition hearing that was continued until April 24. Frank Bingham attended the hearing. He declined to talk.
Several motions including request for a change of venue and to suppress written statements will be addressed in the next hearing.
Snell, who is out on $25,000 bond, is scheduled to go to trial May 29. Trujillo's trial is scheduled for Aug 6.
