More witnesses take the stand in Beth Ann White retrial
SUMMARY: In the retrial of Beth Ann White, the state called witnesses who testified that she caused a crash that killed a mother and her six-month-old son, and left her two other children with life-threatening injuries. Dr. Shiflett, a pediatric neurosurgeon, testified that he treated the surviving children for severe brain and spinal injuries. The state argues that White was driving under the influence at the time of the crash, with a blood alcohol content three times the legal limit. White has been indicted on multiple counts of DUI, including a felony charge for a fourth offense. Her first trial ended in a hung jury.
