SCRANTON, LACKAWANNA COUNTY
A Jessup man, Richard Marchegiani, has been sentenced to one to two and a half years in the Lackawanna County Prison for a drunk driving crash that claimed the life of his cousin.
Police say Marchegiani was high on alcohol and marijuana and was speeding when his car crashed on Route 247 in September of 2007. His cousin, Danielle Faramelli was killed and his friend Khristopher Harvey was seriously injured.
Miss Faramelli's father spoke on behalf of his nephew during the sentencing saying that he 'didn't believe Danielle would want to see Ricky go to prison."
Marchegiani will face probation when he is eventually released from jail. | |
