Police have not brought any charges in the tragic death of 35 year old mother of two Jess Heusner. The 35 year old Immigration officer crashed into two freight liner towheads that were driving one behind the other, on the Western Highway on Thursday night. Her vehicle clipped the wheel on one trailer, and careened into the one right behind it. Her Ford Edge suffered major damage and burst into flames. Heusner's charred remains were found inside.
Police have not yet determined who was in the wrong. The Commisisoner had an update today:..
Chester Williams - Police Commissioner
"In respect to the matter with Miss Heusner, I know that the matter is still under investigation. Police are still trying to ascertain what exactly had transpired and who is at fault and the procedure is that we normally issue an NIP where we are unsure and so as soon as the investigation is completed and we have ascertain if the driver of either Freightliner was at fault, then we proceed against them. If it is that the investigation should reveal that Miss Huesner was at fault, then we send the file to the DPP and then she will direct us how to dispose of the matter from there."
Heusner's sister died in an accident 15 years ago - also on the Western highway.
