Shocking: Dad Battling Stage 4 Cancer Gets 37-Year Sentence as Unlicensed Son Causes Fatal Crash

Richard Seymour Ferguson, 69, has been sentenced to 37 years in prison for causing a fatal crash in Florida that resulted in the deaths of a grandmother and three children.

The tragedy occurred in 2023 when Ferguson allowed his 15-year-old son, who did not have a license, to drive at high speeds, resulting in a collision that claimed four lives.

The unlicensed teen was driving at 83 mph in a 30-mph zone, ran a stop sign, and collided with a Honda, killing 50-year-old Trinidad Hernandez and her grandchildren.

Ferguson expressed deep regret in court, acknowledging the pain he caused but offering little solace to the grieving family, who lost multiple loved ones in the crash.

Sabrina Hernandez, who lost her mother and children in the accident, criticized Ferguson's remorse, highlighting the irreparable loss her family has endured compared to his.

Angel Hernandez, the crash's sole survivor, mourned the loss of his family and the future they were meant to share, emphasizing the profound impact of their absence.

The investigation revealed that Ferguson had facilitated the teens' actions that led to the crash, ultimately admitting his failure to intervene and prevent the tragedy.

Despite pleas for leniency due to Ferguson's health condition, Sabrina Hernandez remained resolute that his illness should not mitigate the consequences of his actions, emphasizing the need for accountability.
