A man has been charged in the vehicular death of a Brooksville teen. The Hernando County defendant, 38-year old William Curt Brooks, drove his 2007 Mitsubishi westbound on Hexam Road when he crossed over the median into eastbound traffic. He hit a 1992 Nissan Maxima head on. Emergency medics transported the seriously injured victim, 16-year old Jenna Marie Moran, to St. Joseph's hospital. Moran died the following day from her injuries.
Officers have arrested and charged Brooks with DUI manslaughter for the untimely death of the Central High School teen. He remains inside the Hernando County Jail without bond. The State of Florida considers the crime of DUI manslaughter a second degree felony. Brooks faces a maximum sentence of fifteen years behind bars if he is convicted on all charges.
