Venus Williams was a part of a crash earlier this month that resulted in the death of a passenger in the other vehicle and now it has come out that the police say she was at fault. Florida police are saying that she did not give the right of way to the vehicle that she would get in a wreck with, meaning she was at fault.
The car crash occurred on June 9 in Palm Beach Gardens. The location was near her home. The passenger that was killed in the wreck was Jerome Barson, a 79-year-old man. He would die two weeks later due to head trauma.
What a terrible situation this is for all parties involved. Venus obviously did not mean for anyone to get hurt, but unfortunately Mr. Barson lost his life. There have been no charges pressed, but we will keep an eye on the situation to see if that fact changes.
