Multiple agencies that worked on this investigation wanted to analyze the vast amount of evidence before making an arrest
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Over the last seven months, the Jacksonville Police Department, Alabama Law Enforcement Agency, Jacksonville State University Police, and the Calhoun County Major Crimes Unit poured over all evidence in the 2022 death of Leah Tarvin, who was struck by a car while using a crosswalk near campus.
That evidence includes surveillance footage, multiple witness interviews , and ALEA’s traffic homicide division surveying the area with a drone.Jacksonville Police Chief Marcus Wood told FOX6 three criteria were taken into consideration, along with the evidence they had gathered, before making the arrest.
“I don’t want to get in to what we found because there is the potential for a trial, so we looked at the potential for cell phone usage, what the speed was and was it excessive, and the victim, Leah, being in a legal crosswalk,” Wood said. Olivia Lowery’s attorney provided a statement on the arrest to FOX6, which you can read in full below:
“This was a tragic accident, not a crime and as a consequence of this accident, two families are dealing with devastating traumas that neither will ever recover from. Of course the Lowery family cannot express sufficient words that would sooth the loss that the Tarvin family has suffered. There are no words.
