Three counts of first-degree involuntary manslaughter were filed against an alleged truck driver in the deaths of a mother and her two young children in Missouri.
The Volvo semi driven by the 39-year-old continued at a high rate of speed as traffic slowed before striking a black Honda Odyssey and triggering a chain-reaction crash. Investigators found no evidence the driver applied the truck emergency brakes before the collision. Jail records listed a 150,000 dollar bond.
