Nathan Bernhard Accident: What Happened During The Night?
Nathan Bernhard and the two people who died consumed alcohol on the afternoon of the faithful day, according to ABC News.
As the accused attempted to finish a three-point turn, the two folks were on the road, lying down at 7:15 p.m.
As of yet, it is not known whether all of them were drinking buddies. Also, it is unknown why the two men chose to lie on the road in the first place.
In spite of this, two precious lives were lost due to some foolish decisions.
What Happened At The Bail Hearing?
Nathan was charged with mid-range drink driving, negligent driving occasioning death, driving in a dangerous manner, and dangerous driving occasioning death.
Well, things didn’t go out as planned for Nathan. Ray Kingston, the police prosecutor, stated that Nathan had ‘no need’ to drive under the influence as he lived just 1.4 kilometers away from where the accident occurred.
So, the police were against the bail and also objected. In addition, it was not the first time Nathan had been convicted.
In 2017 too, Nathan was caught in high-range drink driving. Not just that, he had also served two rigorous correction orders on drug charges.
In his defense, Nathan’s lawyer Brett Ford claimed that his client had never been in custody previously. He further added that Nathan was a boilermaker and had resided in the area for a couple of years with his two sons.
Plus, Brett also voiced that the now-dead men were in an unexpected position.
It was a rollercoaster of emotions for Nathan. He probably must have thought that he would be held in custody. However, Magistrate Geraldine Beattie’s were different.
Ms. Beattie’s views were that the community’s concerns could be eased and granted him bail.
After hearing that, Nathan cried. He was supported by his brother and partner in the court. As a bail condition, Nathan is prohibited from driving and is due to return again in August.
