Indictment Unveils Details of 100 mph Head-On Crash Anti-Aging Doctor Killed by Fleeing Driver in Stolen Amazon Van

Six days after a tragic head-on collision killed a 70-year-old Ohio doctor, a grand jury in Cuyahoga County indicted a 23-year-old on 11 counts, including murder and involuntary manslaughter after he was suspected of carjacking an Amazon driver and attempting to flee police at 100 mph by driving the wrong way on I-90.

Jalen Dewon Jackson, the suspect, was taken into custody by Cleveland Heights Police on December 6th after he allegedly threatened to “blow” the 55-year-old driver of an Amazon van’s “f—ing brains out” with a firearm. Jackson then fled in the victim’s van and attempted to elude the authorities by driving the stolen car at 100 mph the wrong way on the interstate until he collided with Dr. Curtis “Curt” Birchall’s vehicle, killing Birchall.

Birchall’s death, according to Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael C. O’Malley, is “truly tragic and shows Mr. Jackson’s complete disregard for human life,” he said on Tuesday.

O’Malley stated, “As a direct result of the defendant’s actions, one man who was just trying to do his job was carjacked, numerous people were put in danger, and another man – who had dedicated his life to helping others – died.”

The most recent indictment and other recent indictments demonstrate that Jackson is no stranger to the criminal justice system.

The Dec. 12 indictment included a charge for possessing firearms while disabled. Jackson was “adjudicated a delinquent child for the commission of an offense that, if committed by an adult, would have been a felony offense of violence,” according to the documents, which were from May 2018. Kidnapping, felonious assault, and aggravated robbery were the specified offenses.

However, according to Cuyahoga County court documents that Law&Crime examined, Jackson is presently involved in at least two other open criminal cases.

According to court documents, one case is related to an arrest made in April 2022 and an indictment made in October 2023 for obstructing government business and receiving stolen property.

In July, an indictment was made in the other open case, which involved vandalism, aggravated theft, and burglary.

A grand jury has indicted the defendant for two counts of murder and one count of involuntary manslaughter in the death of Dr. Birchall. In addition, he is charged with aggravated robbery, three counts of felonious assault, vehicular assault, possessing a weapon while disabled, firing a firearm on or near prohibited property, and disobeying a police order. As a result, the defendant’s legal risk has increased significantly.

The indictment stated that the most recent offense involved driving the pilfered Amazon van in a way that was intended to evade or flee from law enforcement after receiving a signal to stop, either visually or audibly, and that the offender’s motor vehicle operation was a direct cause of serious physical harm to people or property.

Following the fatal collision, a Cleveland Heights police officer could be heard yelling at the suspect to “get out of the f—ing car” and “show me your f—ing hands now,” according to bodycam footage that local ABC affiliate WEWS carried.

On a hillside to the right of the I-90 shoulder, the suspect—clad in a jacket and hoodie—was taken into custody. There was a yell from one officer that said, “You can’t escape Cleveland Heights cops.”

Dr. Birchall was listed as a doctor who was “licensed in the State of Ohio since 1977” and “Board Certified in Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine” through the Fountain Clinic website.

According to the website, “He has been practicing emergency medicine for the past 45 years and has experience treating patients of all ages, from newborns to those over 100.”

According to the website, Birchall obtained specific training at “the world-renowned Jules Stein Eye Institute at UCLA, Los Angeles, California” in “Eyelid Rejuvenation procedures,” such as “facial fillers,” and further instruction from “top Aesthetics and Plastic Surgeons from Beverly Hills.”

Iran Executes ‘Child Bride’ Convicted of Husband’s Murder Despite Global Appeals for Mercy

Iran Executes 'Child Bride' Convicted of Husband's Murder Despite Global Appeals for Mercy

Human rights organizations had urged for mercy, but on Wednesday an Iranian lady who had been forced into marriage as a child and was imprisoned for killing her husband was put to death.

Iran Human Rights (IHRNGO), a Norwegian organization, claims that Samira Sabzian was hung at Ghezelhesar Prison.

Sabzian was the victim of “gender apartheid, child marriage, and domestic violence,” according to IHRNGO Director Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam.

“[T]he murdering machine of the corrupt and inept dictatorship claimed her life today. A tyranny that has survived only by murdering people and inciting terror,” Amiry-Moghaddam said in a statement. “Ali Khamenei and other leaders of the Islamic Republic must be held accountable for this crime.”

Sabzian was imprisoned for ten years after her husband’s murder. According to IHRNGO, Sabzian suffered from domestic abuse and was coerced into marriage at the age of 15. At the time of her arrest, she was the mother of two small children, one of whom was a newborn. For a decade, Sabzian was separated from them until they visited the prison to bid her farewell before her execution.

“Alarmed” by the execution, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights’ office expressed.

“We again urge Iran to establish a moratorium on all executions to abolish the death penalty,” according to the office.

According to IHRNGO, Iran has carried out about 200 executions of women since 2010, making it one of the countries that executes the most women worldwide. Even in situations of domestic abuse and violence, women are not entitled to divorce; in more than half of those cases, the women were found guilty of killing their husbands.

New Jersey Highway Crash Involving 13 Cars Results in Injuries, Fuel Leak from Tractor Trailer

According to accounts, on Tuesday night, a jackknifed tractor-trailer spilled diesel fuel across the highway and into the Passaic River, causing a 13-car pileup. According to sources, police and emergency personnel from New Jersey came to the scene.

A jackknifed tractor-trailer is seen obstructing both lanes of traffic in the Freedom News TV footage of the incident. A further view shows a firefighter from Paterson, New Jersey, sledding across a black ice-covered roadway.

A car on a flatbed tow truck with its entire rear end shattered and all of its airbags deployed is also seen in the footage.

A portion of the road flooded while Sarvjeet Singh, who was interviewed for the video, was driving. Before coming to a section of the road that was frozen, he indicated that he and other cars had driven through.

As more automobiles started crashing into one another, he continued, “All of a sudden they couldn’t control their cars.” He then pulled into a driveway. “I found out before that, there was a tractor-trailer that got hit by a car and there was a bad injury there.”

He noticed as he pulled into the driveway that the automobiles were smashing behind him.

He believed something was wrong with his brakes after driving through the water, but then he began to slip and discovered the road was slick.

Crushed bumpers, flat tires, broken lamps, and dented fenders are among the damaged cars seen in more footage that is captured on the black ice.

Cars were pointing in the direction opposite to the flow of traffic, and some cars were sideways on the road.

Additionally, fluid-cleaning crews were observed underneath the tractor-trailer. They were observed shoveling and sweeping a quick-dry material that is meant to absorb fluids like oil and other substances that can pollute the environment or create dangerous circumstances on routes.

On camera, a crew member is seen pointing to an area and inquiring as to whether it contained diesel. Photo evidence indicated that the tractor-trailer’s fuel tank was dented, resulting in fuel spilling onto the roadway.

Roadway sanding was done by salt trucks following the collision. Photos posted on the Paterson Police Department’s Facebook page depict officers responding to a coastal storm that passed through the region on Monday, which resulted in significant flooding and hazardous drivers.

EMS arrived and declared the children who had received assistance dead on the spot. An unidentified woman reported to authorities that her kids were throwing up and that she might have given them Tylenol.

No foul play is suspected by the police. Chief of Detectives for the New York Police Department Joseph Kenny stated that all reports show the mother was “well engaged with everything to do with these children.”

“She was an active participant with their medical care, an active participant in their schooling,” he stated. Their family was calm and caring, and neighbors claimed she was a devoted mother. Right now, it just seems like a medical disaster until the medical examiner says otherwise.”

The NYPD informs Fox News Digital that the cause of death will be ascertained by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. The probe is still going strong.
