Speaker 1: death of his wife, a fellow Onlympin, Melissa Hoskins. Dennis

8
00:00:39,574 --> 00:00:42,574

Speaker 1: charges of dangerous driving causing death and an aggravated charge

15
00:01:03,294 --> 00:01:07,214
Speaker 1: of driving without due care, but prosecutors drop those charges

20
00:01:21,134 --> 00:01:24,094
