Fox News
A Weld County, Colorado, jury has convicted truck driver Jesus Puebla of vehicular homicide over a 2022 collision that killed a family of five.
Investigators say Puebla's truck was traveling 76 mph when it slammed into an SUV that was traveling about 6 mph due to backed up traffic. The truck also struck other vehicles, injuring another person. Puebla was not injured, court records said.
Puebla's attorney argued the company that owned the truck was at fault. Puebla testified that the brakes didn't work and he tried to downshift to slow the truck down. The Colorado State Patrol found the brakes were not working.
