News Update: | Does anyone know if there's a fund or some type of donation on the Troopers behalf ? |
Great idea, Thimios315..... If anyone can get any information in regards to a fund being set up for Trooper Engelhardt, could they please post it?| Originally Posted by fscpd907 The Boston Herald reported today that the Wayland teen has been cited 3 times since September: September 2002: Wayland 52 in a 45 zone June 6, 2003: Danvers 88 in a 65 zone and no seat belt Senne's license was suspended in late April this year for not paying the September ticket. He paid the fine and got his license back in May. |
from his driving history. I hope they throw the book at him. My prayers go out to the Trooper and her family. | Originally Posted by Macop Nothing pisses me off more than shit bricks like this kid.

His name was Dan, I forget his last name he worked at Massasoit Police and then was working for a town when this dumb broad ran him down and then had the nerve to try and leave and give the cops attitude like all she hit was a cone or something. does that ring any bells for anyone, anyway Trooper Engelhardt and her family will be in my nightly prayers. |

| Hope endures for hurt trooper By David Abel, Globe Staff, 9/9/2003 FRAMINGHAM -- Speaking publicly for the first time since an allegedly drunk Wayland teenager smashed into a State Police cruiser, Lora Tedeman, the injured trooper's daughter and only child, yesterday said she spends hours by the hospital bed every day, doing her best to keep her comatose mother strong. One of the state's first female troopers, Ellen Engelhardt, 50, nearly died in the early hours of July 26 after an 18-year-old, who authorities said had been speeding, as well as drinking, slammed into her cruiser, which was parked along Route 25 in Wareham. Last month, doctors removed her from life support and Engelhardt now breathes on her own. "This has changed everything. It's turned our world upside down," said Tedeman, a 29-year-old paralegal who only recently returned to work after spending nearly all her time by her mother's side. "She's a trooper, in all its meaning." At a news conference yesterday, Tedeman and her mother's colleagues said they are taking turns keeping vigil and doing everything they can to keep Engelhardt comfortable. Over the past few weeks, many of the trooper's wounds have healed. Doctors have removed a brace on her jaw and the stitches from several operations. Because Engelhardt does not need more acute medical care, doctors at Boston Medical Center, where she has been since the crash, will transfer her this week to the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, nationally known for treating patients with severe brain injuries. "This is terrible, in every category," said Sergeant Richard Teves, who brought a plaque yesterday that a neighbor had sent to the hospital, reading "Believe in Miracles." "We're not giving up hope," Teves said. He said Engelhardt will spend five weeks in Chicago, and then probably return to Boston. Meanwhile, William Senne, the teenager charged with drunken driving, reckless driving, and speeding, started classes last week at Roger Williams University in Rhode Island. Troopers said his Volvo was traveling 90 miles per hour when it hit Engelhardt's cruiser, which was parked in the breakdown lane with its lights flashing. Senne, who last month appeared in Framingham District Court on unrelated charges of possessing a 30-pack of beer in his car in April, will be arraigned Sept. 19 in Wareham District Court. "My client and his family's principal concern has been the condition of Trooper Engelhardt," said Paul V. Kelly, a Boston lawyer representing Senne. "They continue to pray for her complete recovery. We are also in the process of trying to understand all the facts and circumstances of this tragic event." Tedeman and troopers at yesterday's news conference declined to discuss the charges against Senne. One trooper said Engelhardt was like a sister. "I brought my kids up to call her auntie," Dana Tobey said. Lieutenant Maryann Dill, another one of the state's first female troopers, said: "I'm very sad. I'm devastated. She was always smiling, always caring." For Tedeman, who is also looking after her mother's Akita, Inu, it's as though time stopped this summer. Every day when she visits her mother, she does what she can to try to get a response. She talks about the dog, the Boston Bruins, or gossip from home. But no matter what she says, Tedeman isn't sure her mother hears her. For now, she's content to watch Engelhardt's blond hair begin to grow back, after doctors shaved it off for one of her operations. It's a miracle, she said, that her mother is breathing on her own. "We can't give up hope," she said. "My mom's a fighter, and we're here for her." David Abel can be reached at dabel@globe.com. |

. Moreover, imposing the burden of inquiry on the insurer poses no undue burden and reduces, if not eliminates, the difficult determination of what is, or is not, material to the risk of loss from the perspective of an insurer. See National Union Fire Ins. Co. of Pittsburgh v. Continental Ill. Corp., 643 F. Supp 1434, 1442 (N.D. Ill. 1986) (insured not required to update representations in application). See also Preferred Risk Mut. Ins. Co. v. Hites, 125 Ill. App. 2d at 152 (absent inquiry by insurer, no obligation on insured to volunteer facts that might affect insurer's decision to carry the risk).| Originally Posted by USMCTrooper The insurance company paying will have some affect on the kid's father. Insurance will be much costlier and harder to get next time around; his adding of his kid to a company policy may not fly the next time; and this does nothing to absolve he family from any civil liability suit filed by Ellen's family. |
