Truck owner sentenced in deadly I-76 crash

NORRISTOWN, Pa. - April 26, 2010

Forty-one-year-old Victor Kalinitchii was one of three men sentenced Monday in the January 2009 crash that killed 49-year-old David Schreffler of Fort Washington.

Kalinitchii pleaded guilty to vehicular homicide and other charges after the brakes on the truck failed, causing the crash.

The driver and the owner of the owner of the garage that issued the inspection sticker also pleaded guilty earlier to homicide by vehicle counts. Garage owner Joseph Jadczak, of Milton, Del., was sentenced to three to 23 months. Driver Valerijs Belovs was sentenced to time served, amounting to three months, and was released Monday.
